Date:

Description: 
This anonymous plan titled 'A sketch of the Plea-folds taken from the Depositions of the witnesses' was drawn in connection with a boundary dispute taken to court in 1740. Another plan and papers concerning the case survive in the processes. This shows the march line running between Glenbuck Hill and Cairntable. This line appears similar on both plans regarding the case and still partly exists as a stone dyke. The burns and the large area of bog are all coloured with a light grey wash. Several houses used as landmarks have small drawn elevations. These appear fairly standardized so are of little real value regarding vernacular architecture.
