Details A beaker found when the farmer of Forteath was digging a pit to bury a dead sheep circa 1990. In circa 1990 another beaker was found in this vicinity, although the exact location is unknown, while a pit was being dug to bury a sheep. The beaker broke on discovery. It is a finely made step 4 beaker, decorated with bands of squarish-toothed comb impressions. On a visit to this site in 2003 several large stone slabs were located near a dyke which may have come from a cist.
