Activities

Field Visit (April 1978)

Turin Hill NO 514 537 NO55 SW

There are a large number of shallow pits on the N slopes of Turin Hill. In at least two of them there are fragments of incomplete mill-stones, and it seems likely that the remaining pits mark the quarry-holes of completed mill-stones.

RCAHMS 1978, visited April 1978
