Scope and Content Plan of a small enclosed settlement on Stanshiel Rig, Dumfries and Galloway Across Stanshiel Rig are traces of prehistoric field-systems, clearance cairns and settlements. Shown on this plan are the remains of a small enclosed settlement on Stanshiel Rig. The enclosing drystone wall of the settlement has been heavily robbed. Within the settlement is a single stone-built round-house, few of which are known in Dumfries-shire. Settlements like this enclosed round-houses with a yard for keeping animals and storage. A mixture of animal husbandry and arable cultivation were likely practised. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN. Redrawn from DC 32305 for publication as comparative plan.
