Shown on the OS 1:10000 map, but more extensive than illustrated there, is a pronounced curvilinear bank associated with small enclosures and rectangular buildings which together seem to represent an abandoned upland intake of Medieval or later date.
The south-west end of the illustrated portion of the bank meets a stream at SN 76972194 and follows an ENE path curving to the north and terminating, after a pronounced kink, at SN 77062227, a distance of some 450m. It is formed for most of its length by a broad ditch up to 2m deep but averaging 1m, with a revetted inner face capped by a broad low bank. Two small enclosures lie in the bend of the bank and there are some small cairns nearby.*
Towards the N end of this part of the bank it appears to merge with a linear gulley which forms the boundary for the remainder of this extent.
From the stream termination the bank continues in a roughly north-west direction following the stream for about 400m, in places forming enclosures with meanders of the stream. It crosses the stream at about SN 76672217 and then follows a west direction towards the modern field boundaries. Two small rectangular buildings lie near the far N end of the boundary (and may pre-date it) .
