Full Description
A desk-based assessment and rapid walkover survey was conducted in connection with a proposed native pinewood scheme at Auchterteang by J. Wordsworth in 1996.
Site 3.1: The most prominent feature visible today is a grassy rectangular enclosure measuring 20m by 15m with the long axis lying approximately E/W. The rounded walls of this enclosure survive as drystone facing up to 0.5m high. There is no sign of stone tumble in association and the upper walling was either of turf or has been robbed out. <1>
