The site of two medieval shieling mounds, shown on a distibution map prepared by P.S. Gelling.

The site of a post-medieval corn and flax mill.

The conjectured site of an Iron Age or Early Medieval fort. It has been dismissed in modern times as a natural feature. It is situated at the floor of a narrow valley and is similar to others in the vicinity. It appears to have been created by the washing away of the soil from around a rock outcrop. It is an irregular shelf with a sheer drop towards the adjacent stream to the west.

A small quarry located just to the southeast of the Glen Dhoo shieling settlement.  It is not known if it is contemprary with the group of 12 shieling mounds or hut circles within the settlement, which is centred on SC35308988 and thought to represent a probable Early Medieval settlement of Block Eary type.

The record for an Iron Age settlement site in Glen Dhoo.

The Glen Dhoo settlement is centred on SC35308988 and consists of a group of 12 closely set hut circles located either side of the stream.  The settlement is thought to  represent a probable Early Medieval settlement of Block Eary type.   The hut circles are situated on a marshy shelf which is the gathering point of a northwest flowing stream. The ground rises in all directions to surrounding hills, apart from the northwest, where after 180 metres of gentle downward flow the stream plunges steeply to the valley below.  The huts are invisible from the valley below but an outlying hut to the east seems almost to act as a look-out. The shallow course of the stream which passes between the huts shows traces of some disturbance. There are fragments of banks in the area, the purpose of which has not been deduced. No entrances have been found to any of the huts.

One of a scattered group of shieling mounds. P.S. Gelling mapped 12 sheiling mounds in the area, and this is probably one of these.  It is one of a pair of shieling mounds which are situated near the crest of a hill.  The ground falls away steeply to the north, with a commanding view over the entire valley and the distant lowlands. The mound is a completely embanked circle with an overall diameter of 8.0 metres. It is built up on the west side by 0.6 metres. The internal diameter of circle is 2.5 metres. The internal height of the bank is 0.2 metres and its external height between 0.2 metres and  0.6 metres.

One of a scattered group of shieling mounds. P.S. Gelling mapped 12 sheiling mounds in the area, of which this is probably one. This mound has a overall diameter of 8.0 metres, built up in the northwest by 0.5 metres and scooped out in the southeast end by 0.4 metres. The defining peripheral bank measures up to 1.5 metres wide and 0.2 metres high, creating a flat-topped interior diameter of 5.0 metres.

One of a scattered group of shieling mounds. P.S. Gelling mapped 12 sheiling mounds in the area, of which this is probably one. This mound measures up to 10.0 metres long by 7.0 metres wide, and up to 0.6 metres high, with a slight hollow on top.

One of a scattered group of shieling mounds. P.S. Gelling mapped 12 sheiling mounds in the area, of which this is probably one.  It is one of a pair of shieling mounds which are situated near the crest of a hill.  The ground falls away steeply to the north, with a commanding view over the entire valley and the distant lowlands. This mound is somewhat elongated downhill, possibly due to slippage downslope, and measures 5.0 metres long by 3.0 metres wide.  It is up to 0.3 metres high and the top is not flat.

One of a scattered group of shieling mounds. P.S. Gelling mapped 12 sheiling mounds in the area, of which this is probably one. This mound is rather oval and up to 6.0 metres long overall.  It is defined by a peripheral bank measuring 1.5 metres wide and up to 0.2 metres high.

One of a group of 12 hut circles and/or shieling mounds, forming the Glen Dhoo settlement, which is centred on SC35308988 and thought to represent a probable Early Medieval settlement of Block Eary type.   This example consists of the northwest half of a circle which has otherwise been obliterated by soil creep. There is one large quartz block in the centre of the feature and around the remaining perimeter the tops of stones indicates that it was originally a circular structure measuring 2.5 metres in diameter. The hut circles are situated on a marshy ground around the gathering point of a northwest flowing stream. The ground rises in all directions to surrounding hills, apart from the northwest, where after 180 metres of gentle downward flow the stream plunges steeply to the valley below.  The huts are invisible from the valley below but an outlying hut to the east seems almost to act as a look-out. The shallow course of the stream which passes between the huts shows traces of some disturbance. There are fragments of banks in the area, the purpose of which has not been deduced. No entrances have be found to any of the huts.

One of a group of 12 shieling mounds or hut circles forming the Glen Dhoo settlement, which is centred on SC35308988 and thought to  represent a probable Early Medieval settlement of Block Eary type.   This example is a slightly raised mound with an overall diameter of 3.0 metres. It is just 0.1 metres high and there are some stones visible through the grass cover. The hut circles are situated on a marshy ground around the gathering point of a northwest flowing stream. The ground rises in all directions to surrounding hills, apart from the northwest, where after 180 metres of gentle downward flow the stream plunges steeply to the valley below.  The huts are invisible from the valley below but an outlying hut to the east seems almost to act as a look-out.

One of a group of 12 shieling mounds or hut circles forming the Glen Dhoo settlement, which is centred on SC35308988 and thought to  represent a probable Early Medieval settlement of Block Eary type.   This example is found in a disturbed area, mesuring some 9.0 metres across and situated on a minor ridge. It includes two adjacent circles one of which is grass covered and the other which shows considerable stone content. The average diameter of the circles is 2.0 metres and average height 0.2 metres. The hut circles are situated on a marshy ground around the gathering point of a northwest flowing stream. The ground rises in all directions to surrounding hills, apart from the northwest, where after 180 metres of gentle downward flow the stream plunges steeply to the valley below.  The huts are invisible from the valley below but an outlying hut to the east seems almost to act as a look-out. The shallow course of the stream which passes between the huts shows traces of some disturbance. There are fragments of banks in the area, the purpose of which has not been deduced. No entrances have been found to any of the huts.
