Site of the CASTLE (of Barnyards understood) [nr Auchluchrie] 032 In 1857 Mr. J. Fairweather the present tenant in digging a hole to bury a Cow came upon large foundations stones cemented with lime at the place covered by the old "Site" - he did not excavate the extent of these foundations - and Alexander Smith, Pensioner, an old residenter of Tannadice upwards of 70 years of age pointed out to me the spot (near the well adjoining the bottom of the garden) where he remembered some ruins to have stood when he was a boy - This satisfactorily localises the Site of the old House or Castle of Barnyards mentioned in the following Extract.
