Full Description
Possible site of memorial cross. In the late 19th century it was recorded that west of Milton is the Corsehill, on which a cross may have stood, as graves had been reported in the neighbourhood. RCAHMS site visit 1996 concluded that there was no evidence that a cross had stood at Corsehill, and that the 'graves' were the small cairns associated with the field system recorded in rough pasture immediately west of Corsehill.
