017.07 | Opposite to the second mile stone on the road from Stonehaven to Laurencekirk, and on the West side of the Burn of Glaslaw are two remarkable mounds, or hillocks, planted with trees. Their appearance and situation would lead to the supposition that, they were artificial, as they have all the appearance of Barrows or Tumuli. In the summer of 1860 permission was given to Mr Robert Duthie a local antiquary, to examine these mounds and he stated that he excavated in each of them to a depth of about eight feet, and in the smaller at a depth of 5 feet there was found several small pieces of vegetable charcoal. Nothing remarkable was found in the large one, but from the appearance and nature of the soil during excavation Mr Duthie states that he is confident they are artificial. |

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 Kincardine, which is in the north east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
