Aerial Photographic Transcription (10 September 1992 - 16 December 1992)
An aerial transcription was produced from oblique aerial photographs. Information from Historic Environment Scotland (BM) 31 March 2017.
Aerial Photographic Interpretation (24 August 2022)
A ring ditch, possibly the remains of a barrow of prehistoric date, and a scattering of pits that lie within the general area, have been recorded as cropmarking on oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1992) immediately E of Dunragit late Neolithic timber enclosure (NX15NW 76.01). The ring ditch measures around 7m over a ditch about 1m broad but the cropmarks are poorly defined and the southern arc of the ditch is not visible on the aerial photographs. What may be a burial pit is visible at the centre.
