097 The following is taken from New Statistical Accounts. "The parish seems once to have contained several wells of considerable note. One of the most celebrated of these was situated in the eastern part of the parish at a place called Hole of Ruthven. Its virtues were so famous that neither the authority of the magistrates, nor the admonitions of the clergy, although most rigourously applied, could deter the citizens from frequenting their efficacy. The name of the place still remains, but the well has long lost its existence." The name is now applied to an old one storey thatched house which was built on the site of the well.
