Archaeology Notes

NO65SE 42 6870 5081

Oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1995) show the cropmarks of rig-and-furrow cultivation, 200m SSW of Red Castle (NO65SE 10). The rig, aligned NW-SE, measures about 80m. Immediately to the NW of the rig is a linear cropmark which may be a modern pipeline, aligned NNW-SSE and visible for at least 400m.

Information from RCAHMS (KJ) 14 April 1999.
