Full Description
Site of two hut-circles. There was a small circle, visible in 1880, on the side of the hill, circa 1.6 km west of Braco farm. Its stones were a good way sunk into the ground. There was another circle, recorded in 1899, circa 1.6 km west of the two circles which were situated close beside each other on Braco, NO 5064 7050, which Cruikshank reported in 1899 that 'the stones seem comparatively of small size and are scarcely visible above ground'. The circles were not located by the OS in 1967.
