016 | [situation] 2 Miles East of Easter Glasslie. This name applies to the remains to the remains of some pieces of arable land & rough pasture, situated in a tract of rough pasture in a westerly direction from the junction of the parishes of Leslie Falkland & Portmoak. Some 80 or 90 years ago a person of the name of Harper or Michael Potty built a house a little to the west of Sheet Line and reclaimed a portion or portions of the rough land which probably is the origin of the name. Copied from Examiner's Remarks. |
