Standing Stone Terally.
Close to the edge of the bank which skirts
the road to Drummore and about 120 yds. [yards] N [North] of
Terally Mote is standing a thin whinstone
slab 3'.6" in height & width and 9" in thickness
facing ESE. [East South East] and WNW. [West North West].
Terally Mote I believe to be a natural gravel
mound which shows no signs of having
been adapted for a place of defence.

Clanyard Castle.
Only a portion of the W. [West] wall of this keep
remains varying from 10' to 20' in height.
The wall is only 2'.6" in thickness and
the keep has evidently been of late date.

? Mote
In the angle of the road to the E [East] of High
Clanyard Farm is a natural gravel
hillock with a flat summit some [--] in length and [--] in
breadth. The sides are steeply
scarped, perhaps artificially and along
the N. [North] side a terrace appears to have
been formed some 20' in breadth. There
are no signs of ramparts or other defences
on the summit or around its base.

Crummag Head. Fort.
On a small peninsular rock to the N. [North]
side of Crummag Head and about 1/2 m. [mile] W. [West]
of Low Slock Farm are the remains of a
remarkable stone-built circular fort.
The neck of the peninsula some 27' in length
