Perhaps it may be more probably referred to the Gaelic, in which language, the words, Eaglaiscreag, or gen. [genuitive] Eaglais-Craige, Signify the Church of the Rock, and well descibe the singularly picturesque situation of the ancient Church of the parish.

At that time the only parts of the building remaining were a portion of a very strong circular wall which had formed the western enclosure of the castle, a tower of a square form at one extremity of this wall and built on a projecting ledge of the precipice, along the edge of which the wall was carried, and a portion of the ancient chapel. These remains of the fortress are preserved by having been in Corporated some years after the purchase of the lands by Mr Brand, into a spacious and modern Mansion . (New Stat [Statistical] Account 279-80)
OS1/19/18/22 Site of Chapel 027.03 The Chapel at the Castle stood at the South West side of the Courtyard, and appears to have been there for the use of the retainers at the Castle. There is a Falcon cut in Stone on part of the Old Wall (which is said by Mr Porteous to be part of the Chapel Wall,) and during the Course of building &c some years ago there were found a small vault or Tomb under the figure of the Bird. In the Tomb there was human remains. The Falcon was the crest of the Stratons.

Andree [Register of the riory of St. Andrews] Some time ago the old font of this chapel now preserved at Lauriston was found buried among a quantity of rubbish" (P [Page] 373) Lauriston. "Lauriston, on the other hand is much more sheltered and is so situated that it possesses no very extensive or varied prospect. The house, which Stands picturesquely upon the east bank of the burn of Lauriston, is partly old and partly new. The older portion of which a Square tower only remains, seems not to belong to an earlier period than the first half of the sixteenth century, although according to tradition this is part of the fabric which Buchanan says was garrisoned by the English during the reign of King David II" ( Memorials of Angus & Mearns P [Page] 374.)

( New Stat. Acc. [Statistical Account] P. [page] 272) "It ought to be stated that the little romantic valley called Den Finella is upon the property of Lauriston, and tradition affirms that it was so called because Lady Finella, the reputed assassin of King Kenneth III was overtaken here by her pursuers, when rather than fall into their hands, she committed self destruction by leaping from the rocks into a deep gully, where the water tumbles from a height of about 150 feet." ( Memorials of Angus & Mearns P. [page] 375.) A name given to a large glen through which a small stream flows. Near its Southern extremity it is planted on each side, the slopes here are very steep and the rocks precipitous. The name is well known though scarcely any two persons spell it with the same letters i.e. Finella or Fenella, for further information on the Lady's name see extracts on Kincardine Castle relating to the Murder of King Kenneth III, also "Strath Finella", and Strathfinella Hill.

It is nearly forty yards in diameter, and had a ditch and a wall of turf and stones, and a central building constructed of Stone. Some remains of human bones were lately exhumed within its inclosure. There is however no tradition connected with it" (New Stat Act [New Statistical Account] p 282) This Camp is situated in the corner of a plantation on the Estate of Canterland and about half a mile north of the farm house of Canterland. The Camp (which is evidently British.) is in a good state of preservation, and the ditch can be easily traced, it is circular and about 150 links in diameter. It is said that human bones were found in the Centre of the Camp, but there is no tradition of [Continued on following page]

OS1/19/18/35 Site of Castle of Morphie Site of Castle of Morphie Charles Peter (Canterland) James Adamson (Morphie) 027.05 "On the South side of the Den of Morphy Stood another ancient Castle, the seat of the family of Graham, in whose possession the estate of Morphy has been for several Centuries. It was once a place of considerable strength, and secured from the attacks of an enemy by a ditch and draw bridge, according to the genius of those days, but now few remains of it are to be seen." (Old Stat. Act. [Statistical Account] Vol. [Volume] II P [page] 104-5.) "Another fortress in the parish was the Castle of Morphy, on the property of Francis Graham Esqr, and said to have been a residence of the noble family of that name, it is believed to have been a place of some strength, was defended by a wall, ditch, and drawbridge, and occupied a commanding position on the brink of a romantic ravine uniting with the valley of the North Esk. Its site is now a ploughed field." (New Stat. Act [Statistical Account] P. [page] 281) Every vestige of the Castle is now destroyed , and no trace of the ditch is to be seen. Mr Adamson the Tenant on the ground, who pointed out the site, states that he took out the the foundation walls some years ago. The site is on the South Side of the Den of Morphie, and on the top of a steep bank, the slope of which would be a formidable defence to the Castle on two of its sides. There is an Old Irish Yew tree, (now dead) standing near the site, and it is supposed to have stood in the Castle Garden. Mr Adamson stated that the yew tree is supposed to be 600 years old, the wood is so hard that a Rifle Ball will scarcely penetrate it.

Whether this ancient pillar was erected to preserve the memory of some gallant warrior of the name of Graham or whether it be the only relick of a Druidical temple, it is difficult to determine. But the first conjecture seems to be the most natural, because it is the only Stone at that place and goes by the name of The Stone of Morphy" (Old Stat. Acct. [Statistical Account] Vol II P [Page]105 "The Stone of Morphy- This is an obelisk situated on the lands of the same name in the western division of the parish. With reference to [what] the writer of the former account says, that is is difficult to determine whether it had been erected to preserve the memory of some gallant warrior of the name of Graham, to which noble family the lands of Morphy originally belonged, or whether it may be a remnant of a Druidical temple, while at the same time, he appears not to have been aware of the existence of a tradition, which says , that it was erected in memory of a son of Camus, or some other important personage in his army, who was killed here in an engagement with the Scots, after the defeat and death of the Danish leader at Panbride. The Danes on that event immediately retreated Northward, and according to the tradition, encountered the Scots near the Stone of Morphy, and that a battle had there taken place is probable, from the immense number of stone coffins, containing human bones , which have been found, particularly in and near a field called the "Sick Man"s Shade, close by the stone.The farm adjoining that on which the pillar stands bears
OS1/19/18/36 [Page] 36 Parish of St. Cyrus
OS1/19/18/37 Stone of Morphy Continued stands, bears the name of Comeston, or, as it is written in old records Camuston. The names of Wardroperton and Scotstown, two farms bordering on the latter seem to indicate the position of the Scottish army, and a den quite close to the pillar is called Dannie's Den, which seems easily convertible into Danish Den. The form of the stone which is a plain unsculptured obelisk of 13 feet in height above the ground and tapering from 4 feet in breadth at the base, to 2 at the top seems also to correspond with the description of other Danish monuments in different parts of Scotland" ( New Stat. Act. [Statistical Account] P 281-2 .) This Stone stands in the Stack Yard of the farm Steading to which it gives the name. It is a large irregular shaped block of freestone of about 4 feet by 2, and about 12 feet of it is above the ground , there is no mark of a tool upon it, and it appears to have been erected in an unhewn state , for what purpose is mere conjecture. - About three years ago a Stack fell against it and the Stone was knocked over. Previous to its re-erection Curiosity led the proprietor to excavate around the base of the Stone, during the excavation , part of a human skeleton embeded [embedded] in black unctuous earth, was discovered close to the stone, and the body appeared to have been buried without a Coffin or Urn, as nothing of that kind was found. This would lead to the supposition that the stone had been erected to Commemorate a person who had been buried here. This information was given by Mr James Adamson of Morphie

There are traces of building around the greater part of the rock, and on its Seaward extremity there are the remains of a square tower, which can only be approached by a leap over a chasm of 60 feet in depth. This place is supposed to have been the residence of certain of the ancestors of Mr Barclay of Ury, and to have been used as a place of retreat by one of that family in the time of James I. The tradition respecting it is connected with the Story of the death of Melville, Sheriff of the Mearns, and appears from Sir Walter Scott to have had some foundation in fact."(New Stat Act [Statistical Account] P. [Page] 280) "Hard by the fall of the Stream of Woodston on the E. [East] stands the Kame of Mathers, the ancient residence of the Barclays. This Kame is built on a peninsular rock whose base is washed by the Sea. A small part of the ruins of this ancient building now remains. It must undoubtedly have been a place of great strength. The access to it is by a narrow and almost impassable isthmus. The rock on which it stands is perpendicular and its height above the sea 60 feet." (Old Stat. Act. Vol II P.102) [Old Statistical Account Volume II page 102]
