Full Description
Earthworks of a possible enclosure on the south bank of the River Helmsdale. The site is visible in vertical aerial photography taken in 2009. It comprises two bow-shaped banks forming what may have been an oval enclosure, open at its southwest end. Its northern end, adjacent to the river, may have been open or closed but either way may have been lost to erosion. <1>
