Full Description
A subcircular mound 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 measured 5m east to west by 4m and stood up to 0.3m high. It may have been a shieling mound, although there were no structural remains visible. <1>
