"About half a mile south-west from the church, are to be seen the ruins of a fortification or camp, - improperly called Roman, as its form is circular. It stands on the edge of a high and barren moor, about half a mile from the Clyde, and commands an extensive view of that river to the South and west. It contains about 1½ acres, and is surrounded by a double wall of earth, a deep ditch intervening".

Also written on page - over columns 2-4:
The second land-owner is Alexander Chancellor, Esq. of Shieldhill, whose ancestors have been in possession of this estate for the last four centuries, as appears from a charter still extant granted by Thomas, Lord Somerville to Willliam Chancellor of Shieldhill and Quothquan, A.D. 1432. The family residence was originally at Quothquan and remained there till 1567 when the then proprietors wined Queen Mary's party at Hamilton, and engaged in the battle of Langside. After her defeat, a party of 500 Horsemen sent out by Regent Murray to demolish the houses of her adherents burned down, among others the mansion house of Quothquan. After this calamity, the family residence was moved to Shieldhill which appears originally to have been a square tower of no great dimentions but which has at different times been added to and modernized. particularly by the present proprietor. |
