Full Description
An area of rig and furrow was noted in this area in the 1947 Aerial Photographs. The rig and furrow extends to either side of the road and may possibly date before the insertion of the road in the mid 18th century. <1>
The relevant aerial photography is currently not available to Highland HER, so the plotted extent of this rig and furrow must remain approximate. <2>
It is, however, visible in vertical aerial photographs taken in 2022. <3>
