Archaeology Notes

NG15SE 8 185 506

Lying to the east of the road to Glasphein, between Scoval abd Beinn Bheag and at a height of 130m OD is a large earth and stone banked enclosure containing rig cultivation. A number of possible shielings lie within the enclosure, one in the centre and two on the western boundary. Clearance cairns lie in the corners of the enclosure.
