Archaeology Notes

ND34SW 510 ND 33383 44357

Nothing is visible of what may have been a small enclosure, which stood in what is now a field of improved pasture about 210m WSW of Gansclet farmsteading. The enclosure is depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Caithness 1877, sheet xxix), but it is not shown on the 2nd edition of the map (1907 sheet xxix).
