and facing the South. sheltered by a slight
rocky eminence on the north is a small
circular enclosure or hut circle measuring
26ft. [feet] in diameter interiorly and surrounded

Enclosure Westside (unnoted)
About 1/4 m. [mile] to the S. [South] of Westside on the top of a
hill which rises up from the S. [South] side of Henrie's
Burn near its confluence with the Black Esk,
has been surrounded by a stony rampart
now almost reduced to ground level. The
interior has been hollowed so that
the enclosure resembles the bed of a large
pond. On the N. [North] the bank has been kept
back from the edge of the plateau so
that no part of the construction is ob:

The elevation of the summit is 794 ft [feet] above
sea level.
On a plateau on the N. [North] slope of the hill
less than half way down to Henrie's Burn
is a small circular enclosure
