Full Description

A number of crop marks, are visible in a field of cereal crop west of Monaughty Farm. There are two groups within the area. The most easterly group consist of extremely regular parallel lines that probably indicate drainage marks. The other group to the west consist of at least one possible souterrain, showing as a wide curved dark solid mark. There are also possible ring-ditches and pits and other indeterminate marks. An oval-shaped enclosure shows as a thin light trace, and there is also one possible square enclosure, which may be a square barrow but this is not a clear mark.
