County of Perth -- Ph. [Parish] of Trinity Gask.
Site of CHAPEL
Extract from Stat. Acct.[Statutury Account] "There was a Chapel in former time upon the present farm of Coul Gask (or
Chapelhill) The plan Suto bears the name of Chapelhill but it was turned over some time ago, and no
trace of it is now to be found."
Site of TUMULUS 108/5
Extract from Stat [Statistical] Account, "about 6 years ago, a tumulus, about 3 feet by 2 consisting of 4 large
Stomes, and covered with a fifth, was discovered upon the property of Lord Kinnoull, containing
a considerable quantity of decayed human bones, It was supposed to be a relic of the Romans
but there was nothing from which this could be positively determined, The remains of the skull
lying at the Eastern end would indicate an origin prior to the introduction of Christianity, Around
this sarcophagus and mingled with the stones of the Cairn which covered it, were ashes and burnt
bones, as if animals or captives had been sacrificed on the Tomb of the Chief."
