Archaeology Notes

NO54NE 19 578 495.

Single, curved pit alignment, running N-S for 40m, at right angles to the Vinny Water. There is no visible reason for its deviation from a straight course, but this may have been to avoid a structure since destroyed. A linear feature, broken into small sections, runs approximately parallel to the pit alignment, which lies 40m to the E. The relationship between them is not known.

L Macinnes 1983.
