Field Visit (21 September 1997 - 21 September 1997)
A turf and stone dyke surviving to c1m in height and c1.2m wide incorporates large boulders. A much slighter dyke c0.6m wide and c0.2m high lies to the N, at cNG 9855 1922. The substantial dyke may be a replacement to the slighter feature to the N. Both appear to define the edge of the field (KIN105) to the N.
