004 | An old building, situated at Mains of Brims, once the residence of the Sinclairs of Ulbster. There is nothing historically known of this place. Tradition Says - ''Prince Charlie took refuge in it for some time; whether it is correct or not is a mystery. It was repaired Some years ago, one Storey taken off the top, and a new roof put on, but it is now almost in ruin. There is only one room into which they can enter with Safety.'' The property of J. Sinclair Esqr of Forss. |
