Scope and Content The farmsteads within the glen display a range of layouts, from the strictly formal plan of the improved steading at Loss (see also fig. 32) to the more haphazard arrangement of buildings at Ploverburn or Whittetsbank. The uppermost row are turf-built, and are probably the farmsteads of the poorest tenants. However, the contrast between, for example, Ploverburn and Little Jerah suggests that a similar range of status probably exist amongst the stone-built farmstead.
