Parish of Fordoun
"The Brae district lying on the South side of the Grampians. This last district
is subdivided by the streams which take their rise in the Grampians and by
the small glens or valleys formed by their streams into three or four smaller
districts Such as the Brae of Glenfarquhar, Kinkell, and Mondynes, and
the Brae of Craigniston, and the well known Brae of Fordoun, Several of these
glens or valleys having their sides more or less covered by plantations give a rich
and pleasing appearances to the Parish." (New Stat Act p. [New Statistical Account page] 68)
The Brae of Glenfarquhar, Kinkell, and Mondynes, are located and
written. The "Brae of Craigmoston" and the "Brae of Fordoun" embrace too large
an extent, and are not sufficiently known to be written on the Plans.
