Description

This is a range of three buildings and a kiln all clearly visible in the improved land below the craigs to the SE of Pularyan. They are almost evenly spaced along the terrace over a distance of about 200m. All are rectangular buildings aligned roughly NS.

The area proposed for scheduling extends 200m along the burn from NX 1434 6816 and 100m NNE from the two end points. This includes an area in which traces of activities associated with their construction and use may survive. The area is marked in red on the attached map.
