[Margin] unnoted

To the S. [South] of it and partially formed by it is
an ancient enclosure containing in the
thickness of its wall one or two small circular
huts and another built against it near its
junction with the cairn on the SSE. [South South East].
In a hollow about half way between the large
cairn and the bridge over the Craignarget
burn is a group of about ten small cairn like
heaps of stone, the largest of which has a diameter
of about 16’. One or two of the smaller ones may
be ruins of huts.
Some 70 yds. [yards] ENE. [East North East] of the large cairn at the
base of a rock which rises some 12’ above it
on the W. [West] are the remains of a walled circular
enclosure. The wall, which is preserved to a
height of from 2’ - 3’ on the SW. [South West] is 8’.6” in
thickness and faced with large blocks of stone.
Diameter not obtained but estimated at 50’ – 60’.
Some 300 yds. [yards] S. [South] of the large cairn, in a slight
hollow, are the remains of a circular hut
with an interior diameter of 7’ and a sur:
:rounding wall 4’ in thickness. On the
exterior the wall is reduced to ground
level but on the inside it has an elevation
of 2’ below that level. In its vicinity lie
two small cairns measuring diametrically abt. [about] 12’.
