Martyr's Stone - [situation] About 1 1/4 Mile North of Culcaigrie Loch
"On Kirkconnell Moor is the grave of a Martyr called McClement who was slain along with four others and buried on that spot during the persecution in 1685. One of his fellow sufferers is interred in the Churchyard of Anwoth where there is a long rhymed epitaph on his gravestone which is printed in the "Cloud of Witnesses". Ten years ago a sermon was preached on the spot where he was killed and a collection made to defray the expenses of a Monument to his memory. An immense multitude assembled and the amount was used for the erection of a stone pillar with a great number of inscriptions. It was unskilfully built and is at present threatening to fall in pieces."
