Archaeology Notes

NG62SW 31 6175 2274

Lying on an area of improved grassland, between a burn and a stone-built dyke, at 90m OD is a turf-dyked enclosure of indeterminate size. Within the enclosure are the turf-covered remains of a boat-shaped structure which measures 15m NE-SW by 6m NW-SE over walls 0.8m wide. A little evidence for an entrance survives in the centre of the SW-facing wall. Visited by AMcN 6 April 1990.
