Mote Hill: western side of the ancient fort

This is the western side of the summit. What looks like a linear mound crossing the image from left to right, on the near side of the bench, may be part of the outline of the fort described at the Canmore link given in the end-note. The view is from the interior of the fort, looking out across its wall. See Image for further possible traces on the opposite side of the summit. The prominent skyline hill near the right-hand edge of the present picture is Ben Ledi (Image).
