042 This stream is a continuation of the Burn of Buck: this latter stream, changing its name from Burn of Buck to Burn of Craig at Silverford Bridge; and flowing for about three quarters of a mile in an easterly direction; takes in the brook called the stripe of Clashencape, and continuing its course onwards, takes in a small stream called the Stripe of Bogs and still flowing in an easterly direction, takes in a number of tributaries which contribute largely to the augmentation of said Burn, by numerous small and seemingly inconsiderable rivulets; then continuing its course a few yards south of the Castle of Craig it is remarkable for the rugged eddying nature of its channel, where it forms a number of beautiful waterfalls, & finally uniting with the Burn of Contlack; They form the junction of the Bogie near to the manse of Auchindoir.
