Full Description
Cropmarks of a double pit-alignment or cursus recorded by AAS in 1982 and by the RCAHMS in subsequent years. The pit alignments form an elongated rectangular enclosure circa 570 m long by 30 m wide, aligned east-southeast to west-northwest. Roughly 100 m from its west end is a pit-defined subdivision, with another possible subdivision circa 100 m further east. The pits where seen are evenly spaced and of regular size.
