Full Description

Turf and drystone boundary wall superceded by Site 14 and parallel to same; aligned NW-SE. 1.0m wide (spread), 0.2-0.3m high.
The remains of this bank run parallel to its successor, Site 14, although it disappears at its south end near Rogie farmstead. It was visible again on the east side of Rogie Burn and recorded as Site 21, also parallel to its successor. The feature is visible on aerial photography, and seems to be the same boundary drawn on the 1st edition OS 6-inch map which forms part of an enclosure, adjoining the turf and stone banks recorded as Site 20 and Site 17. <1><2>
