A small triangular group of eight horizontal cultivation terraces can be seen opposite BM 715.7 on the Romanno-Drochil road. They evidently represent the survivors of a more extensive system, the N side of which has been obliterated by rig-cultivation, and the S side by a group of about ten curving terraces which sweep down and across the western face of Whiteside Hill, immediately beyond the enclosed fields at Flemington.
RCAHMS 1967, visited 1962
