Probably includes souterrain.

A complex of cropmarks, including rectilinear and curvilinear enclosures, three possible round-houses and rig, have been recorded on oblique aerial photography (RCAHMSAP 1976, 1983, 1988, 1993, 1996, 1998) about 300m N of Carnoustie. The rig is oriented roughly from NW to SE.
