George Fisher, Pollabay Henry Dugal. David Chalmers J. Aitken Esqr, Factor for Cardross The Rev. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Turner |
131 | A small square fortress, defended on all sides by a deep fosse which is still pretty entire. The authorities believe it to have been constructed by the Romans, and that a road had led from it connecting it with other Camps in the adjoining parishes. No trace of a road can now be discovered on the ground. At the South east angle of the Camp is a small raised mound tabulated on the top and about 10ft. in diameter. "At the North west extremity of the Moss of Flanders is a Roman Castellum, about 50 paces in diameter and irregularly square. There seems to have been in this direction a Roman iter from the great Roman causeway which ran along Scotland from South to North, from the Wall of Antonine at Camelon, by Stirling, Dunblane &c to Brechin. This iter is supposed to have crossed the river Forth at the ford of Drip, and next to have crossed the Stream of Guidie, near where the Forth receives this minor and tributary body of water. Here as is supposed, the iter branched off towards Garfarran, another Roman Castellum, which is situated south of the Forth." in Drymen Parish New Stat. Acct.
