Archaeology Notes

NX15NW 105 148 570.

Field boundaries extending over for 170m to the E of Woodend have been recorded as cropmarks on oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1995). In one sector two ditches, placed about 2.5m apart, run parallel, defining what may have been a trackway. The 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Wigtownshire 1850, sheet xvii) deos not depict any features in this area.
