Archaeology Notes

NS47SW 51 447 741.

Vestiges of walling, which may have been used to adapt the natural rectangular hollow between two ridges of strata into a dun, were noted, about NS 447 741, on an elevation formed by a rotational slip, with marked E-W outcropping vertical strata. The interior measures 18m by 7m within walls 3m to 4m thick.

Information from T C Welsh letter, 20 July 1979.
