Full Description
Rectangular embanked enclosure with a scatter of stone clearance heaps around it. Found while checking aerial photos. RCAHMS site visit suggested that this is only a low stony bank running south-southeast from the edge of the arable cultivation at the foot of the slope for at least 40m up the flank of the hill, reappearing further up slope after a gap of circa 20 m. No cairns were seen at the time of the visit.
