Brockett's Glossary -
"There appears to have been another
"place of worship in the parish, in Roman
"Catholic times. The place, near Craigston,
"is still called Chapel Knowe. In excavating
"for the Lugar Ironworks , recently put in
"opperation, the workmen came upon a small,
"rude urn, containing bones. The Knoll is
"probably a tumulus of the ancient Britons".
