Sir
The accompanying Name Sheet relating to the supposed Druidical temples, mentioned by the late Col [Colonel] Miller, in his enquiry respecting the battle of Mons Grampius may enable you to decide whether the name should appear on the Ordnance plans, persons of respectability who know the place are disposed to differ with Col [Colonel] Miller respecting their origin, at the same time it is probable that Col [Colonel] Miller may have been as Correct in his view of the matter as the parties who differ with him.

The place Certainly has a very remarkable appearance at the present time so much that the visitor would be disposed to Coincide with the first named Authority.

Ordnance Survey - Fife and Kinross counties

Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the counties of Fife in the east of Scotland and Kinross in central Scotland. The boundaries of these counties were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
