Activities

Field Visit (5 September 1997 - 5 September 1997)

The remains of a turf and stone dyke spread to c1.2m and c0.4m high run alongside a small unnamed and unmarked burn. Two possible features are also sited here. One is ill-defined, c4m by c3m over stones c0.6m wide and c0.2m high, the other is more obvious, c3m by c2m built with large boulders c0.7m wide and c0.3m high.

This is presumably the remains of a small shieling area.
