by Brechin and Stricathro. The southern part is
flat, and forms the vale of the Cruick water.

Brechin and Tannadice, iour miles from the latter,
and the same distance from the former place. It is
bounded on the east by Brechin, on the west by Tan-
nadice, on the north by Menmuir, and on the south
by Aberlemno. Careston Castle is the only object of
interest in the parish, it is supposed to have been
erected about the year 1400, and was formerly one of
the residences of the Earls of Crawford, but is now
in the possession of John Adamson, Esq.

the Grampian hills, ten miles north-east from Forfar
