A Parish bounded on the north by Brechin which also adjoins it on the west or part of it, Aberlemno Ph. [Parish] being the adjoining land on this side - the west. The Parishes of Craig and Maryton bound it on the east, Kinnell on the south, and Kirkden (part of) on the south west. The River South Esk touches upon the northern Boundary and is the only water of any consequence in the Parish the Pow burn being the next worth mentioning. Two lines of Toll Roads run through the Parish - the Arbroath & Brechin & the Forfar & Montrose Road. The main or principal hill in this Parish is the Hill of Carcary, to which Rossie Muir extends in Farnell Parish. A great portion of the Muir of Montreathmonth which is now a thick forest of trees, belongs to this Parish. The entire Parish is the property of the Right Honble [Honourable] the Earl

[Note]
"The name of this Parish was anciently
written Fernell, afterwards Fernwall or
Farnwall; but now commonly Farnell.
Fernwell is said to be of Gaelic origin -
Fern signifying a den, & nell a swan: from
which it would appear that the name had been
taken from a den near the church, which may
once have been the abode of Swans.
The Parish of Kinnaird was disjoined from
Farnell, & formed into a separate parish, about the year 1633;
but was again annexed (except a small portion which fell into the
parish of Brechin) in 1787."

It is not considered necessary by the personal authorities to adopt the Name in full, as it appears in the Val.

A Toll on the Brechin & Arbroath Toll Road about ¼ mile from the north-western Boundary of Farnell Parish. To the south west of the toll house, but in Brechin Parish, there was, upon the two last authorities quoted, an Urn found containing calcined remains. It was turned up by the plough about 19 years ago, as stated by Dr. [Doctor] Sharp, and was partially destroyed by it at the time. It lay about the farm house of East Drums for a long while and was finally destroyed altogether in mistake by a servant of the farm. The urn was not larger than an ordinary flower pot. Several relics of the same sort have been got in the neighbourhood more particularly on East Drums, which is all in Brechin Parish. |

which is protected by a permanent wire fence shewn on the Examination Traces. All young woods or plantations in the demesne are at present protected from the Deer by a temporary wooden paling. These palings are removed as the woods grow to a proper size. Besides those around the woods there are other temporary palings enclosing parts within a wood for shooting. The whole of these as stated by the Factor of South Esk Estate are temporary & useless, and are therefore cancelled on the Examination Traces - There are four principal entrances to Kinnaird Castle in Farnell parish, & three of them bear names, which, though their origin may have been for distinction, are now by usage well established proper names recognised by the best authorities. They are the "West Gate" on the West of the Park, "East Lodge" on the East & "Farnell Lodge" in the South. There is a Drive & a Lodge between "Farnell Lodge" & the "East Lodge" (Trace 5) but it bears no proper name. Almost all the dwellings of the various servants living in the demesne bear some local distinctive term or name none of which are adopted by the Agent of South Esk Estate, who considers such terms as the Shepherd's-house, which is applied to the place & dwelling occupied by the Shepherd of South Esk or Kinnaird, to the northward of the Old Burying Ground of Kinnaird Old Parish to be better understood than properly Named. The South Esk family vault is in the Deer Park of Kinnaird at or near the south east corner of park wall. There is an artificial lake in the Demesne. |

A remarkable Law or hill on the east & close to the T.P. [Turn Pike] Road. It stands to the north of a steading which is named from the Law. Some years ago Lord Southesk, the proprietor, caused an excavation to be made in the top of the Law in hope of finding some remains of antiquity but nothing was found. Some considered it of artificial construction but it is of late or since the top was opened, thought to be a natural hillock. The soil dug out of the top is sandy, but it is not used as a Sand Pit, nor has it ever been, and it is intended as stated by Mr. Lyall to fill it up again. Urns as stated by Mr. Lyall to Mr. Sevewright were got in the field to the south & east of the Law, but there is a difference in the information obtained as to the place they were found, Mr Lyall stating it to be to the east of the Law, and Mr Sevewright saying between the foot of the law & the steading at the place shewn on Trace. The field in which Urns were got is therefore written on the Examination Trace. |

"In Episcopal times the Vicar of Farnell held the office of Dean of the church of Brechin, and in the old taxatio the Kirk is rated at 20 marks. As now constituted Farnell is made up of two ecclesiastical districts, for anciently there was a chapel at Cuikstone or Quyqstone" (Cuikstone is in Brechin) "The names of two of the Rectors of it have been preserved, and the site is about a mile north of the present Parish Church, near a mound called "Rume's Cross", a name which although now of doubtful origin, perhaps refers to the patron Saint of the Kirk."
Memorials of Angus & Mearns
The Site of the supposed cross &c. is marked by a mound, apparently of artificial construction, in "Anderson Den" just within the Park wall of Kinnaird. The name had been long known in the Parish, but its probable origin was not much known till the "Memorials of Angus" were published. No opinions are given by any of the authorities quoted beyond what is said of "Rume's Cross" in the Memos. [Memorials] of Angus. |

This name should be strictly confined to the limits given of it on the Examination Trace for although there is a Den on the Stream to the east of the vault, "Deil's Den" does not apply further than the lake on one side & the plantation of "Marquis Hill" which ends so acutely on the other - the east |

There is no rule from custom for this object which is sometimes called "Kinnaird Vault" & sometimes "The Vault" The Agent of South Esk Estate considers that the Family name (South Esk) would be understood, but it has nevertheless been adopted. There are Tombs of Marble in the walls on the north & south to the Proprs [Proprietor's] father & other relatives. A high wall encloses it |

Authenticated on plan 34.10 Parish of Kinnell |
034 |
The head of this Burn is in the Muir of Montreathmonth and in the first part of its course it is named Battle Burn, but this coming as far as the Church of Farnell some confusion in the name is found from the Burn from Red Den also taking the name with the distinction of "North" added to it, while this (the Pow proper) is distinguished as South Pow in the neighbourhood of the Ch. [Church]. Good authorities do not admit of two Pow Burns, there being but the Pow which flows as "Battle Burn" in its first part and afterwards (from about "Woodside" in Kinnell Parish) "Pow Burn" to the South Esk (See Red Den 34-10 1 & 2) |

the highest but nothing so far as could be ascertained has ever been found in it, or the other two Laws which are comparatively insignificant in point of height or remarkableness. Mr Buchan of the farm of Three Laws in Brechin Parish, considers that the smallest law to the east is not one of the Three Laws, but that the third was where his Steading now stands, and he states his having found an urn and some stone coffins in the mound which the house now occupies the site of. Dr. [Doctor] Sharp considers the smaller Law to be one of the Three Laws and the name is therefore written on the Examination Trace to apply to the "Three Laws" shewn. This is a particularly well known land mark in the country around. Everone will be found to know the "Three Laws" |

This descriptive name or term is adopted upon the single authority of Mr. Lyall who considers it the only proper designation that can be given to the cottage, it being built expressly for the Beadle of the Parish, and the old house, part of which still remains, having been time out of mind occupied by the Beadle of Farnell. By the people it is usually called "Greenlaw" - from being upon those lands, and the "Bellman's Ho. [House]" at other times. The cottage is upon Southesk Estate the Property of the Rt. Honble. [Right Honourable] the Earl of Southesk who is Proprietor of the entire Parish. The "Beadle's Cottage" is a neat dwelling with a well kept garden on its front or south side. |

the Den itself may be said to extend to about the distance of 1/2 a mile in this direction - the East (near east margin of Trace 2). To the West the Den only extends about 3/4 of a mile, but it is most remarkable both in color of the soil and as a den or hollow at the parts to which the name is confined on the Examination Traces. After passing out of Farnell Mill Dam there is much confusion & impropriety in the usage of the name of the Burn, which is called the "North Pow", the Pow proper being in the neighbourhood of the Ch [Church] distinguished by the same bad usage as "South Pow". Upon the authority of Mr Lyall, there is properly but one "Pow Burn" which is named so on Estate Maps of Kinnell and Farnell Parishes. The Burn from the Red Den is but a tributary of the proper Pow which is artificially widened after leaving the Mill Dam and hence it is supposed to take the title of Pow from being larger than the proper Pow |

A good deal of the lower part of the Castle has modern windows & doors made in repairing the old ones, but the whole building is otherwise in tolerable repair, and is occupied by tenants & pensioners of Southesk Estate. "Farnell Castle" as authorized is the name by which it is always referred to, but whether that is the original or modern name of the Castle could not be ascertained. "Farnell" might be understood to it from the Mill name & the Name of the farm of "Mains of Farnell" being so near, |
