Now a farm track and part of the Carse of Trowan circular walk. The memorial obelisk to General Sir David Baird is just visible in the right background on the summit of Tom na Chaistel Hill: The Earls of Strathearn had their castle on this site, which was destroyed by fire in the 14th century. The bottle dungeon of the castle was apparently found by workmen in 1832 whilst excavating the foundations for the monument. The hill to the left is Creag na Gaoith.
