Full Description
A pit circle, field boundary, pits and frost wedges have been recorded as cropmarks on oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1988). The pit circle measures around 8m in diameter within close set pits and may represent the remains of a later prehistoric roundhouse or ceremonial timber circle. The field boundary is aligned NE-SW and corresponds with a boundary depicted on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Inverness-shire 1874, sheet XII). A general scatter of pits and frost wedges extend across the adjacent area.
