045 [Situation] About 1/2 mile W.S.W. [West South West] of Castle Hill - on the western side of the road from Kirkcudbright to Dumfries.
This like other Moat appears to be partly natural and partly artificial. The west side and part of the top is rocky the east side appears to have been assisted by art as it is erected with small stones but as several cart loads have been carried away and the place very much defaced it is hard to say what it has been on the N.W. [North West] side there appears something like an artificial cut It is upon the Farm of Meikle Lochdougan
