020 | This name applies to stones, laid across the small moss, at the head of Glendearg Burn: The stones numbered upwards of of twenty, and are laid at stepping distances -- apart, along the watershed, or boundary -- about 70 links on the Dumfries side No traditions respecting their use can be learnt in the locality; but -- by some, the name is supposed to have originated -- by the spot being rocky, and through there being a foot path crossing it in to the 'Glen Dearg' -- in Dumfriesshire |
