127.14 ; 134.02 ; 134.03 A small but rapid stream which takes its rise from surface water in Maddie Moss, at the north base of Kings Seat Hill, and flowing in a southeasterly direction unites with the Burn of Care, at the south base of the Knoll on which stand the ruins of Castle Campbell, forming Dollar Burn, which flows south from this. Its banks, with the exception of the last half mile of its course, are low, and it has, throughout, a gravelly bed. Tradition says that while a daughter of one of the Kings was confined in the castle, she gave the name to this stream, as also names to several other objects in the vicinity.
