Regality Tower [note continued]
[continued from page 39]
a circular opening under a label and equilateral dripstone or hood-moulding springing from corbel
masks and on each side are two foiled niches for statuary and a range of mossy dentulated projections
the whole surmounted by an embattled parapet capping, evidently of a period subsequent to the original
building. The large apartment which was over the archway might from its size and vicinity possibly
have been the Court house of the Regality. The grand entrance was secured by a great oak door
hung near the centre of the passage and an iron portcullis at the portal which could be
drawn up or let down at pleasure, and this formed in those days an almost insuperable barrier
to the intruder. Account of Abbey of Aberbrothock by John Bremnar 1842 page 9

Ordnance Survey - Angus county
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 county of Angus, which is in the east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
