Archaeology
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.
