HUNTERS CRAIG | Hunters Craig | Revd [Reverend] W Colvin Cramond W. Clarke |
A bold massive rock of freestone about 20ft [feet] square, a short distance West of Nether Cramond. It is supposed that the Romans first landed here from the circumstance of an eagle standing upright with open wings having been roughly hewn out of the rock in a niche about 3ft [feet] by 2 and 1in depth, it is perfectly visible, though much worn, owing to the soft friable nature of the stone | |
