Archaeology Notes

NX08SE 32 08600 82019 centred 08600 82019

Oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1995) show the cropmarks of field boundaries, immediately SW of Ballantrae Bridge (NX08SE 25), in the N end of a field. One is visible from about 200m across the field, aligned NE-SW. Forming an angle is a further linear cropmark running NW to SE for 110m. At a tangent is a curved cropmark, aligned SW-NE. A number of linear cropmarks (NX c.0862 8201) are situated 50m SE of the field boundaries and also immediately to the NW. Some sections of the field boundaries are depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Ayrshire, 1857, sheet LXV).
