Fragmentary remains of broad rig-and-furrow have been recorded on vertical aerial photographs (106G/Scot/UK 139 3101-2, flown 3 July 1946) about 210m E of the abandoned farmsteading of Corriebreck (NJ31SW 28). Since the photographs, some of the rig has been eroded by a change in the course of the Nochty Water, and the rest of the area has been afforested; on the date of visit no trace of the rig was seen.
Visited by RCAHMS (JRS, ATW) 4 March 1998.
