Full Description

NN 6144 9478

Within an area of improved pasture part of which has been recently ploughed there is a semi-circular arc of bank 10m in diameter. It sits on a terrace overlooking the Gergask burn. This is almost certainly the remains of another roundhouse. There are c12 large cairns lying to the E of this, presumably part of a contemporary field system.
