Full Description
NB14NE 1 191 451.
NB 191 451. Circular feature is shown on the 1898 Edition of the OS 6" map: This site is on ground sloping rather steeply to ENE and having a low sloping rock ridge falling away almost immediately to seaward. The area has some turf and very shallow peat, areas of glaciated bare rock, and scatterings of small and medium boulders, some over 2m long. No feature, natural or man made, of any archaeological significance was seen and there was no indication that there had ever been stone settings on this site. Traditionally, this area is known locally as the Covenanters' Field.
