Archaeology Notes

Oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1995) show additional cropmarks in this field. A linear cropmark, aligned SE-NW but turning to the SW, cuts the enclosure. What may be a pair of linear cropmarks, stretching SW-NE, are situated to the SE of the enclosure. There are also a number of cropmarks and pits in this area, the most distinctive being two marks to the SE of the enclosure.

Information from RCAHMS (KJ) 28 April 1999.
