Description:
This anonymous sketch map was drawn as part of the legal dispute of 'Nairne against Crichton and others' in 1628. It covers an area of moors and farmland in Perthshire, stretching south from Dunkeld and Caputh to Moneydie, and includes land in the parishes of Auchtergaven and Moneydie. It shows the moors in the present-day areas of Newton Cowford, Fordy, Pitlandie and Kinvaid, and names the owners of each area. It also names the arable areas. The improvement of moorland was an important part of agricultural development at this time. Some areas of land in the north around the moors of Newton and Cowford are labelled as belonging to 'Mr. Nairn'. The Gelly Burn is also noted. Towards the northern margin there is a castle symbol lablelled 'Castrum ...'. Unfortunately, the place name is smudged and difficult to read.
