118 | This camp is situated in a stripe of Fir wood, and immediately north of Loaninghead, it is in good preservation, and of an oval shape. It is composed of two trenches, those on the north and south sides being the deepest, on the west there appears to have been the least protection, as there are very slight embanKments, while on the east, the centre is fully 30 feet above the base of the exterior embanKment. There appears to be little doubt as to this being a Roman Camp, and that it was used in connection with the one at Ardoch. |
