Old Statistical Account
051 A large stream which rises on the high ground some distance north of Loch Ordie and after a course of several miles falls into the Lunan Burn a short distance south-east of Laighwood farmsteading. It forms the boundary between the parishes of Clunie and Caputh for some part of its course.
"The Buckny takes its rise from Loch-na-chat, and falling to the south-east between the mountains of Benachally and Duchray forms the Dow loch; thence, increased by the springs of the Dow loch, it thunders down a deep, narrow, rocky den, covered with a wild wood, called the Den of Ryechip, and separating the parishes of Caputh and Clunie, enters the latter in the park of Laighwood, where it unites with the Lunan." Fullarton's Gazetteer.
