The monument comprises an earthwork boundary feature typical of the early modern period's agricultural reorganisation and land management practices in the Scottish Lowlands. Its precise dating within the post-medieval period and functional purpose remain within the broader context of the intensified pastoral and arable farming that characterised rural Midlothian from the sixteenth century onwards. The enclosure represents the material remains of landscape changes associated with improved farming methods and property demarcation during this era.
