| Yort | An Antiquity | Seemingly, an old antiquity situated on the farm of Compstone end and on the south west side of Castle hill, it was fortified with an artificial foise and bank on the north and an inclining bank on the west, east and south. Have made minute inquiry both when I was examining the trace and lately as I suspected that the name of the hill had reference to the object in question and also its own appearance but I could not find any one to inform me what it was or to give me the least intelligence abut it save Mr. Arbackle who considers from its appearance that it must be some old antiquity. I consider myself by comparing it with similar objects, that it is a fort and that the hill took its name from it. |
