"The Abbey of Paisley parish has been [so called] since 1736 to distinguish it from the Burgh of Paisley which was then separated from it and erected in to a distinct parish. Previous to this Separation the whole district was called the Parish of Paisley."
"It is bounded on the north and north east by the parishes of Renfrew and Govan, in which direction it approaches within two miles of the Clyde, on the east by Eastwood, on the south by Neilston, on the west by Lochwinnoch and Kilbarchan. In point of extent this is the third parish in the county and, as regards value, by far the first.
From north-east to south-west it stretches out nearly 9 miles in length. It is so indented on all sides by corners of adjoining parishes, that its breadth varies from half a mile to [5.5] miles." "It is generally of a gentle waving surface, frequently swelling, especially in the neighbourhood of Paisley, into beautiful little eminences."
Extracted from "Chalmers' Caledonia", "Fullarton's Gazetteer" and "Old Statistical Account." |

This apparently Artificial Mound is about 5 chains East of the Turnpike Road from Paisley to Renfrew And is named by Many of the inhabitants Queen Blearie's Mound. the more intelligent persons in the Neighborhood Consider it a Mound formed from the debris or refuse from a quarry a little South of it, but from its appearance and Careful preservation it is more than probable that its origin Meant it to perpetuate Something of more Consequence than the refuse of a quarry.

A tenement of rather ancient appearance is pointed out as the house in which the renowned hero Sir William Wallace was born, but if this brave defender of his Country was born, as is generally allowed, on the spot it must have been a habitation of older date. Adjoining this house is an old garden, from the foundation of whose walls about thirty years ago a stone was dug, having the following inscription cut in Roman letters, "W.W.W. Christ is only my Redeemer" - This stone was taken to Elderslie house, the seat of Alexander Speirs Esqr. "Near Wallace's House", the name by which the above mentioned mansion is Known, but to the north side of the turnpike road stands the very celebrated tree called "Wallace's Oak." - New Stat [Statistical] Account. |

This Stone is about four feet high and about a foot in diameter Still presenting the traces of Carving but nothing at present legible on it
Semple in his history of Renfrew page 264 Makes mention of it as a Danish Stone and to this day the respectable portion of the Community style it the Same.
"On the subject of antiquities, we would mention that, at a very little to the north west of Stanelie Castle, there was till lately, a small wood, near which was a Danish Stone, according to Semple, but more notably a Popish cross, between 4 and 5 feet high, standing on a pedestal, the cross piece on the top broken off." - New Stat [Statistical] Acc [Account]

It appears the Stone was removed by the Paisley Water Commissioners to its present position in order to preserve it
"A little to the west of Stanley castle, lately stood an ancient sculptured stone with figures on it, which may not improbably be connected with the boundaries of the forest so carefully fixed for its old lords," (See gift of "Stanley Castle" - Origines Par [Parochiales] Scotiae |

Tradition states that the Renowned Donald was Slain or buried here and that a battle was fought, but at present the name is all but obliterated in the locality James Tuile aged 83 John Stewart aged 76 and McLean aged 70 all recollect the Site of the Stone a portion of which now forms the Gate pillars adjoining.
It is stated that there was a large Slab on which a Stone about 5 feet high Stood bearing the figure of a Man or Horse - whence probably the name Steed
"On the subject of antiquities, we would mention that at a very little distance to the north west of Stanelie Castle, there was till lately a small wood near which was a Danish Cross according to Semple but more probably a Popish Cross, "between 4 and 5 feet high standing on a pedestal, the cross piece on the top broken off." It had wreathed work on its edges, and on one side near the base." At Auldbar, a mile or so to the southward of Hawkhead there was another of a similar description called "the Stead Stone Cross." "It is now," says Semple, "about 4.5 feet long, 16 inches broad and 8 inches high standing upon a pedestal, about 1.5 foot high, 4.5 feet long, and 3 feet broad."
