Aerial photography has recorded the cropmarks of the SE half of what is probably a roughly circular enclosure about 80m E of the farmhouse at Largizean (NS05SE 45). The enclosure probably measured about 55m in diameter within a ditch 1.5m in breadth. A break, 10m wide, in the ditch on the SW may incorporate an original entrance.
A series of parallel linear features, roughly 30m to 40m apart, which lies immediately E of the enclosure, may be old field boundaries.
