W Roy 1747-55.

Area centred NC 8572 0714. The area is, for the most part, covered in bracken and no building foundations were found.
There are several enclosures in the area, all of stone.
The enclosure at NC 8574 0713 is 9.0m diameter, 0.5m maximum height but having no apparent entrance.

The enclosure at NC 8575 0715 is 0.8m high.
The area is bounded on the E and S sides by a stone and turf bank.
The area may be wrongly sited, as Carrol is on the W side of Loch Brora, see NC80NE 26.
