Note. "Opposite to the Mansion House of Hardington or Bagbie there is a ring of earth and stones supposed from its form to be a British camp. There is also a circular camp at Braehead." (New Stat Act. [Statistical Account])
The above camps are supposed to be Apocryphal, they have been sought for on the ground, and could not be found, and the present Minister, the Revd [Reverend] C Hope, who wrote the New Stat Act. [Statistical Account] knows nothing about them, but supposes he was wrongly informed at the time he was writing the account etc. B.R.
