NM56SE 15 Centred on 586 624

A substantial settlement was shown here in 1875 on both sides of a small unnamed burn, five roofed and three unroofed buildings were shown as well as a sheepfold. An additional settlement was centred around the sheepfold shown at NM 5852 6253, eight roofed and one unroofed were shown in 1875 as well as an unroofed building at NM 5861 6249. Further roofed structures were shown to the south of the road where modern buildings are now shown. These buildings lie just outside the area of the present SSSI boundary. This has been a desk assessment area.
