Creag an Fhàraidh"
"The only Cave of interest is that in which McFadyen sought refuge after his defeat by Wallace at the Pass of Brander and where he was dragged out & executed. It is still pointed out as Mcfadyen's Cave in the Face of Craig an Araidh, as is the stone on which he stood to breathe a little in the middle of the Awe. The stone is still called McFadyen's Stone.
