013.06 " The Roman Camp at Channelkirk appears to have been of considerable extent, and very similar to the Roman Camp at Cleghorn, in Clydesdale - but, as the greatest part of the surrounding ramparts of this Camp has been levelled, its exact dimensions cannot now be ascertained. The West side, & part of the East only remained, in November 1803. The West side exhibits a Gate, which is covered by a Traverse; and at the S. [South] west corner, there is a prodigious redoubt. The area of this Camp is now occupied by the church, church Yard and the Ministers Glebe of Channelkirk, & extends to about 5 acres.
