Aerial photography has revealed a series of cropmarks across two fields 90m to the N of Claisandear farmsteading. Settlement remains include a possible souterrain, approximately 8m long, and two dark indistinct sub-circular marks (possibly round-houses or hut bases) centred on NN c.9700 5200. These traces are located on a promontory and 'enclosed' by a linear cropmark (NN c.9697 5201 to NN c.9720 5204) which is visible immediately to the N. Two further possible round-houses have been recorded 210m to the ENE, and in the area between there are further indeterminate cropmarks, an arc of ditch, and a number of pits. The cropmarks of a fort are situated on a promontory to the S (NN95SE 32).
