Full Description

Three buildings and two field-banks, situated on the lower N-facing slope of an unnamed hill, were recorded during a pre-afforestation survey at Craig Pityoulish and Craiggowrie.
The remains comprise two near parallel banks, set from 12.5m to 27.4m apart, that enclose a semicircular area of ground on the SE of Milton as well as three buildings. The double banks are spread up to 2m in width and stand up to 0.5m in height. A subrectangular enclosure, measuring 25m by 20m with 0.75m wide walls standing up to 0.3m in height, lies between the banks.
