NS2674 : Enclosure: southern side

taken 8 years ago, near to Greenock, Inverclyde, Scotland

Enclosure: southern side
Enclosure: southern side
See NS2674 : Circular enclosure on the moor for the whole structure.

The present picture shows the southern side (which is the near side in that other view): the line of the enclosure itself can be seen entering diagonally, left of centre, at the bottom edge of the picture, but gradually curving away to the left before being hidden from sight by the vegetation.

This part of the enclosure was, on the day, the part that could most easily be represented photographically.
Circular enclosure near Overton

This antiquity is depicted on the 1:25000 map, where it is labelled "enclosure"; it is about 10m in diameter. See LinkExternal link (at Canmore) for further details.
