Full Description
A turf or stone dyke was noted during a DBA and walkover survey by RoCAS in 2012 on behalf of Forestry Commission Scotland. It was located under grass and rushes and ran northeast to southwest through a ride in the forestry plantation. The degraded banks are spread 2-3m wide and stand up to 1m high. There is a ditch on the north side of the dyke. <1>
