Description:
|
This manuscript sketch plan drawn in 1726 shows the road between Pitsligo and Aberdour. It was drawn in response to a dispute between the inhabitants of Pitsligo and a Mr Leslie who had enclosed an area of land. Annotations explain that the enclosure had blocked the road from the town to the moss and the mill. The road was not deemed to be a right of way as it did not lead to a royal burgh or other public place. However, it had some validity by having been used for about 20 years and the map maker, although clearly biased towards the enclosing proprietor, suggests an alternative compromise route.
