Lying 190m to the north of Boreraig Burn at a height of 107m OD are two large grassy mounds. There is evidence for structures on both mounds, one has an oval depression on its summit 3m by 2m with traces of a stone wall around; the second has a circular depression 2m in diameter surrounded by a low stone wall on its top.
