Field beside Drove Loan
Of the two fields visible here, the more distant one has, at its highest point, a small modern structure; in this photograph, that structure is positioned centrally on the skyline.
The area around that structure is of archaeological interest, and, in 1996, was granted legal protection as a scheduled monument. See https://canmore.org.uk/site/47007/wheatlands (at Canmore) for details of the traces of a prehistoric settlement found there; the settlement was surrounded by an oval enclosure.
In the report just cited, an OS representative (a ground-based observer) states, in 1974, that no traces are visible. However, at the time of submission, the outline of the oval enclosure can still be discerned on satellite imagery; for such an image, which I have annotated to show the outline of the enclosure, see https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1XT6lTkLb5_Vy9C6vCMSSERxzUww&ll=56.005130964554866%2C-3.8994382662010594&z=19
