Full Description

A number of undated features were recorded N of Rosskeen Old Manse during observation on the route of the Dingwall to Invergordon pipeline. A ditch (site 39) was noted in the pipe trench running roughly parallel to a ditch to the W, associated with ridge and furrow. Beyond it were a series of amorphous pits (site 13) that did not appear to be
very ancient and a group of heavily leached pits (site 58) that may have been older. <1>
