Square enclosure near Carman Hill

A square enclosure, 45 metres to a side, is bounded by a low ridge surrounded by a ditch. It is of uncertain age, but it is centred on a point 200 metres to the north-east of the inner enclosure of Carman Hill-Fort (see Link for the fort). Although there is higher ground on three sides, the location commands a view of the Vale of Leven, the Kilpatrick Hills, and Dumbarton Rock. See LinkExternal link for an annotated satellite view, showing the square enclosure to the NNE of the hill-fort.

(The enclosure was found, on satellite imagery, by Geograph contributor Stan Campbell — Link — who mentioned it to me; I later visited the site, and sent a report on his behalf to WoSAS, to ensure that the find would be properly credited to him.)
