Aerial photography (CUCAP 1977) has revealed the cropmarks of a possible settlement situated immediately to the SE of Bught Nursery and 250m from the NW shore of the River Ness. It is circular in shape with at least four concentric outer ditches and it measures about 30m in diameter internally. These cropmarks now lies beneath a football ground and are not visible on recent aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1995, C53551-3).
