Cultivation terraces west of Falstone (Falstone)
(Area NY 72358768) Cultivation terraces west of Falstone village. (Siting approx due to small scale of map). (1)
No traces of cultivation terraces were found despite an extensive perambulation of the area. Approximately 800 metres north west of Falstone marks the commencement of a large afforested area which forms a part of Kielder Forest (property of the Forestry Commission). Any terraces within that area would probably have been destroyed. (2)
It is possible that this is a reference to the small area of cultivation terraces at NY 715873. The area is west of Falstone and can be clearly seen from there. (See NY 78 NW 2). (3)
