086 A red block of freestone three feet square and 1 foot in thickness lying on the ground, marks the site of the house in which lived John de Luce or otherwise Hay, the person who, with his two sons, it is said, through their bravery at the battle of Luncarty between the Danes and the Scots, gave victory to the latter. It is not known how the two names came to be given to the same person, but the tradition in the neighbourhood is, that the name was de Luce and not Hay.
