34 Report of the Meetings for 1894. 



fort; but Mr Francis Lynn, F.S.A. Scot., Galashiels, has 

 supplied me with a careful plan taken hy him this autumn. 

 On the north, where the ground rises slij2;htly from the fort, 

 there are three ramparts with a trench in front, but where 

 the ground falls back to the level plateau behind the hill, 

 a fourth rampart protects the works for a short distance. On 

 the west, the inner one is supplanted by an enclosure, 150 

 feet long by 50 feet wide, the outer mound of which is in 

 line with the inner rampart of the north front, but its inner 

 mound is in line with the inner rampart of the south front. 

 At the south end of this enclosure is an entrance to the 

 Camp. On the south and south-east there have apparently 

 been three ramparts, but the inner one is now little more 

 than a stony scarp ; the outer one is trifling, disappears entirely 

 in the middle, and becomes a terrace eastward. The middle 

 one widens, and half-way down its scarp there is, what I 

 took to be, a berm, 4 feet wide ; but Mr Lynn thinks it is 

 the levelled foundation for a defensive wall. North of this, 

 in the middle of the east side, there is another entrance, 

 beyond which begin the three mounds and trench of the 

 north front. The defensive lines vary much in height, owing 

 partly to dilapidation, partly to the lie of the ground. Their 

 height to the interior, except on the north, is trifling, sometimes 

 scarcely appreciable, but to the outside the scarps vary from 

 a few feet to 8, 10, or even 13 feet in height. They are 

 very strong in many places. In the interior are six large 

 rounded enclosures of various forms, five of them abutting 

 on each other." One of them takes the place of the inner 

 wall on the west side, as already described. The sixth rests 

 against the south inner wall. Besides these large enclosures, 

 there are two or three hut circles and a few faintly marked 

 heaps, which may represent others. Mr Lynn found that one 

 near the centre measured 16 feet in diameter. We examined 

 the remarkable double arrangement of the main wall on the 

 south-east side, as well as, at least, of three square looking 

 projections in the upper part. Without excavation it was 

 difficult to decide whether these were structural, having 

 been chambers in the wall, the roofs of which had fallen in, 

 or were caused by stones having been quarried out. Mr 

 Dickinson drew attention to a well in the ditch at the 

 north-west of the Camp.
