Full Description
Cropmarks of a probable timber hall, recorded during aerial reconnaissance by the RCAHMS in 1976. The site is 740m southeast of Noranbank farmsteading. The cropmarks represent what may be the wall-trench of a rectangular timber building measuring about 27m x 8m internally. This may be a Neolithic timber building, such as those at Balbridie, Crathes Castle and Claish, Stirling.
