Note (1988)

Turniedykes NT 3851 6328 NT36SE 19

Cropmarks 180m NW of Turniedykes farmhouse reveal an enclosure measuring about 20m square within a ditch 2.5m broad. There is an entrance 6m wide between expanded ditch terminals on the W. At the date of visit the enclosure was visible as a slightly raised platform at the foot of a steep NW-facing slope.
