Full Description
The Inverness Field Club, led by Donald Coghill, surveyed a number of sites in the Aird area between 1987 and 1989. Reef.
North eastwards and a short distance down from a sharp bend in the public road there are fragmentary remains of linear earthworks in woodland. Turf footings can be traced of what appears to be the gable end of a crude building 5 yards wide which sat at the east and highest point of a ridge. <1>
