[Situation] On the Southern side of Cross Park A large stone cross standing in the south west corner of Dupplin demesne inside a small iron paling about twelve feet square the south side of which forms part of a paling or wire fence making a boundary between two parks . The cross stands rather in the north west corner of the small enclosure with its top inclined a little to the south east. Its standing limb is about eight feet high & twenty by fourteen inches square. Its cross limbs are each about three feet long & about twelve by ten inches square, & the cross itself stands in a sunken stone about four feet by three. The cross is covered over with emblematic figures in various forms, such as boars, circles &c and many things not for me to divine. People as well as Antiquarian adept have various opinions as well as conjectures respecting them |

[Continued from page 23]
While some will not believe anything said of either the stone, its figures, or age or anything that people may pretend or presume to understand concerning it The Noble authority here given gives it as his opinion that in this case as well as many others, mens' opinions, conjectures & judgements are very often not invariably influenced by certain notices, conditions, physically, and mentally. Circumstances & the wholesale assertions excepting this object are conflicting enough to afford sufficient if not nourishing food for any incredulity of Knowledge respecting it. A visitor at Dupplin Castle some years ago, who had a fair Knowledge of Antiquarian objects, being a clergyman & an Amateur Antiquarian, stated or declared it belonged to ninth century . Others state it commemorates the Battle of Dupplin fought July 31st. 1332 While General Belshes, I believe, states it to have been a beacon for hunting appointments |

"The ancient church of Forteviot is said to have been founded by Hungus King of the Picts, who lived
near the time of the Downfall of the Pictish Kingdom and to whom this district belonged. It was
in an early period attached to the Abbey of Cambus Kenneth, and was afterwards given to the College of
St. Andrews; which college and the family of Belshes of Invermay are patrons." Old Stat. Accts. Vol. [Old Statistical Account Volume] 20. p. [page] 121 |

The site of this Castle or residence and the eminence called Haly Hill on which it stood have been entirely swept away by the inundation of the Water of May. General Belshes of Invermay, a gentleman now above 70 years of age pointed out the probable site and he states that some vestiges of the building were in a state of preservation when he was a little boy and which he distinctly remembers and from observations of the locality he has made ever since he speaks positively as to the site he has pointed out. Robert McGregor and others in the village point out the same spot as the site. Mr. Rutherford of the railway Inn differs a little from the above and points out the site rather a little more N W. [North West] where he found a large cut stone in the present channel of the river when building his house some years ago. |

Sheet 109 No. 6 Trace 3 -- Parish of Forteviot
The Halyhill, as it commonly called, a small eminence at the west end of Forteviot, was once the
site of a royal residence, first it would appear of Pictish and afterwards of some
of the Scottish Kings. Here Kenneth II, having reigned in peace sixteen years after revenging the death
of his father Alpin whom the Picts beheaded, by exterminating that people and entirely subjugating
their territory died of a fistula. This place seems to have been a favourite residence of King
Malcolm Canmore and many charters are said to bear a date from it.
Old Stat. Acct. Vol. 20 p [Old Statistical Account volume 20 page 124]
There it is said was a residence of some of the Kings of the Picts in remote periods, and here King Kenneth
after the Pictish Kingdom was annihilated , departed this life, as thus narrated in the MSS. [Manuscripts] of Melrose
and Andreas Vintonius who wrote in the time of Robert Duke of Albany
"Primus in Albania fertur regnasse Kinedhus
"Filius Alpini praelid multa Gerens
"Expulsi Pictis regnaverat octo bis annis
"Atque Fortemet mortum ille fuit." See Sir James Dalrymple's Collect. p. [page] 90
Halyhill near the present church, but a great part of the Site of which is said to have been carried
off by the waters of Mey was the summer residence of Malcolm Canmore and others of the
Scottish Kings who granted many charters from this place. At certain distances from the palace
were erected large stones by way of pillars, as the Standing Stone of Bankhead and Cross of Dronachy. ibid |

This name applies to a tract or district of country, through which the river Earn runs. Its length is nearly 40 miles extending almost due east and west from the head of Loch Earn to the mouth of the River Earn below Perth. Its mean breadth including its flanking heights is computed to be about between 6 and 8 miles, but the real breadth of the Strath or valley is not quite so much in some places not half the breadth. The parishes which are wholly or partly included in this valley or Strath are the following viz. Comrie, Monivaird &, Strowan, Crieff, Trinity Gask, Gask, Muthill, Blackford, Auchterader, Dunning, Forteviot, Aberdalgie, Forgandenny, Dunbarnie, Abernethy, and Rhynd |

The name of this district or Strath has not been written on the
plans of this parish nor on the adjoining ones as it was considered
doubtful whether it ought to have been written on the plans of
the 1/2500 scale, but as there can be no doubt it should appear
on the one Inch map it is now inserted in Name Book.
There are many similar Straths throughout Scotland of
very undefined boundaries which if not written on the plans
of the larger scale, ought at least be written on the one Inch maps.
These districts together with the districts occupied by the
different Highland Clans with the names of respective Clans with the names f the respective
Clans and also the Roman Roads the latter of which
cannot be traced with sufficient accuracy to admit
of being inserted on the large scale
could all be inserted on the
one Inch maps with advantage
to the public. [Signed] C.N. Martin Capt. R E [Captain Royal Engineers] |

A large stone standing inside of the wall of Invermay demesne, which was placed there some eighteen years or twenty ago to replace one of very ancient date which had been broken & destroyed by the rude hands of some unskilful workmen going about it. It, the former one, is said to have been covered over with curious devices in the shape of bores & standing upon a pedestal between two & three feet square Tradition states, or rather it is said the tradition of General Belshes, that it was used in days of yore as a beacon for hunting appointments. The present stone is a plain piece of Ashlar with chiselled edges, about nine feet high, twenty one by twenty four inches square & standing upon a small pedestal between two & three feet square which is said to be that of the former stone, the pieces of which are now found together with him |
