Full Description

NH44NE 25 4867 4869

Cut into the crest of a low ridge are four small circular pits with a maximum diameter of 3m. The best preserved lies adjacent to a small dyke quarry, and the upcast from the pit forms an encircling 'wall'. It appears to have been excavated in its interior and eastern side. This site has similarities to the small enclosure at NH 44 NE 20.
A Ross 1987.
