Archaeology Notes

NO01NE 7 c. 06 16

Crawford suggests two sites for 'Whinny Law fort' (NO 060 166 and NO 061 163) and quotes OSA (1792). However this clearly refers to the Jackschairs site (NO01NE 20) and in any case the name Whinny Law does not appear in that account.

OSA 1792; OS 6" map annotated by O G S Crawford.

No trace was seen of a fort in either of the areas given by Crawford and the name 'Whinney Law' is not known locally.

Visited by OS (J T T) 5 November 1965.
