What is recorded here
Situated on a N-S ridge with very good views to the SE. Overlooked by The Hill of Mael 1km to N and Rock of Curry 1.3km to NW. The slight outline of a rectangular house (WM003-011001-) stands on top of a circular-shaped platform in the centre of a ringfort (WM003-011----). No surface remains visible of Man-made underground passage inside ringfort (Adams 1957, 46). The berm running along the inner face of the inner bank may indicate location of Man-made underground passage.
