The White Caterthun Hill Fort is situated on the western summit of the hills between Menmuir and Lethnot, with the Brown Caterthun Hill Fort occupying the eastern summit.
Two massive stone walls protect the main fort, but there are two more lines of defence which are clearly visible.
The entrance is at the east end and within the hill fort at the west end, the site of the well is noticeable. At the base of the western ramparts is a huge cup marked stone.
Both forts are likely to have been in use in Pictish times.
