The whole district is hilly and mountainous, commencing on the south with Catlaw, the frontier mountain of the Grampians & the highest ground in the parish, stretching away North-westward in two screens or series of heights, whose inner sides form the basin of the Prosen. Every part of the frontier or boundary of the district, except a small gorge through which the Prosen makes its exit, consists of a water-shedding ridge of summits dividing the interior from the basin of the South Esk. The hills of the district in a few instances, rocky, & in a few verdant, except at their summits: but they are in general clothed in heath &c. Excepting about 2000 acres, partly arable & partly fine pasture the whole area is wildly pastoral or altogether waste." "Fullarton's Gazetteer". [continued on page 2]

OS1/14/58/1A [page] 1A [Lefthand Column] 64 Northumberland Street Edinburgh 24 Octr. [October] 1871 Col. [Colonel] Sir Henry James &c &c Ordnance Survey Office Southampton Sir, In sheet No 24 of the Survey of Scotland, being the northern Di -vision of the parish of Kirriemuir in the County of Forfar, there is shewn, meeting on the top of a Hill called "Catlaw", the bounda ries of the three parishes of Kirrie -muir, Lintrathen, & Kingoldrum. These boundaries, besides being the boundaries of three parishes, are also the marches of three properties, and between two of these properties a dispute has arisen to the precise bounda -ry at the top of the hill, caused partly by certain marks on the [Righthand Column] Ordnance Sheet, & which I think some explanations from you or the officer who made the survey may tend to clear up. The boundary of the Parishes at the top takes something like this shape. [SKETCH] The pole put up by the Royal En -gineers, as indicating the top of the hill, is at the point marked 2196. The point 2186 is the old Cairn of Catlaw which has long been recog -nised as the point where the three parishes meet. But apparent- [continued on page 1B]
OS1/14/58/1B [Page] 1B [continued from page 1A] -ly the point where the pole is erected is a foot lower than the point further north marked 2197 - & hence the proprietor whose land is in Lintrathen parish maintains his right to run up to the latter point. The Royal Engineers do not seem to have been of this opinion, for you will observe on looking at the sheet that they do not bring Lintrathen nearer the point 2197 than the point marked A on the above sketch opposite it, and from that point they take the line round by the pole at 2196 & from that to the old Cairn & so back to the point 2197. If you could kindly inform me yourself, or through the officer who made the survey, the grounds upon which the line was so drawn (cor- -rectly as I maintain) I think it might enable a settlement to be made. The Marches of the Estates must follow the boundaries of the parishes, and if as I suppose the Engineers found it ne- cessary to get round to the old Cairn as one of the points in the boundaries I think a statement to that effect, or an explanation of the reason why the point 2196 was fixed on as the top of the Hill, might prove satisfactory. Awaiting the favour of your re- -ply. I am Sir your obt servt [obedient servant] [signed] James Stormonth Darling [continued on page 1C]

OS1/14/58/1F [Page] 1F O.S.O. [Ordnance Survey Office] London 2nd Novr. [November] 1871. Sir, In reply to your reference to the Director General of the Ordnance Survey of 24th Octr. [October] respecting the Parish Boundaries shown at the Cat Law, I have to state that the Survey of that district was made under my direction and that I remember having scrutinized this particular portion of Boundary on account of the peculiar configuration it presented and of being quite satisfied with its accuracy. The peculiarity which strikes one on the map is resolved when on the ground by the natural features. There was abundant evidence that the old Cairn was the 3 Parish Point. On referring to our records of this Survey I find that John Hood acted as meresman for Kingoldrum: James Barry for Kirriemuir: and Alexander Edwards for Lintrathen, and the Boundary was pointed out without difference of opinion to Corporal J. Felton. R.E. [Royal Engineers] (who was an experienced and good perambulator) on the 8th. August 1860. The Signatures of all are in the perambulation Book, which further bears evidence by the signatures (among others) of John McNicol of the Craig, Factor for Lord Airlie, Duncan Wilkie (?) of Kirriemuir for Mr. Farquharson; Charles Chree minister of [continued on page 1G]
OS1/14/58/1G [Page] 1G [continued from page 1F] Lintrathen; &c. that the boundaries in this district were well examined at the time, as I know them to have been, the Ordnance Surveyor (M. Harraghy) and Examiner (Corpl. [Corporal] Black) were of our best class of men. I am quite satisfied of the accuracy of this Boundary which should not be disputed. I am, Sir yours faithfully, (Signed) John Bayly Colonel R.E. [Royal Engineers] P.S. You must not always suppose that where the Trigl. [Trigonometrical] Stations are, consequent- -ly indicate the highest point of the hills. Various considerations connected with the Triangulation determine the position, and as a matter of fact, the altitudes are not known until after the observations from the selected stations have been taken. The particular spot where the Pole may be fixed is quite arbitrary. (Initd. [Initialled]) J.B. J. Stormonth Darling. Esqre. &c. &c.
OS1/14/58/2 Kirriemuir (Continued) [continued from page 1] "Kirriemuir lies at the north side of the extensive & fertile valley of Strathmore. The name is by some supposed to be compounded of two words, Corrie-Mòr, the large hollow or den; by others, it is said to be a Celtic word, which means the "large quarter or district". The position of the town on the side of a ravine or den, which extends nearly a mile in length, & is upwards of 100 ft [feet] in depth, supports the former derivation; while the latter may be supposed to have reference to the great extent of country which the parish embraces. The parish is divided into two considerable districts, which are separated from each other by part of the parish of Kingoldrum the one, the northern, usually called Glenprosen, is chiefly pastoral, the other, the Southern division is nearly square in form." "New Statistical Account" There is no portion of this parish detached further than what is stated above, nor is there any portion of any other parish detached within the boundary of this parish
