Marked only on the 1915 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated in a broad basin. This is a D-shaped grass-covered area (dims 32m NE-SW; c. 20m NW-SE) defined by an earthen bank (at S: Wth 5.2m; int. H 0.55m; ext. H 1.05m) and outer fosse (at S: Wth of top 4m; Wth of base 1.4m; D 0.2m) NE-E-SW but there is no evidence of the perimeter elsewhere. Castle (RO045-130002-) and standing stone (RO045-13003-) are in the interior. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
