Dubton NO 704 607 to 706 607 NO76SW

The crop-marks of what is probably a small unenclosed settlement have been recorded on a gentle rise ENE of Dubton. A line of five circular marks, each measuring about 12m in diameter, probably represent the sites of houses; the perimeter of one appears to be delineated by pits. Nearby there are at least three smaller rings, which measure about 6m in diameter, and there may be two more houses about 100m further E.
