Proposed lodge to be built (at Balbirnie). Letter from (General) Robert Balfour to John Bruce ...'the stone of my quarry is too soft a nature for pillars of a gate and some little ornamental work I require, I have to request you would allow me to get some stones for this purpose from a new quarry found on Greenhill ...about a mile NW of Nuthill House'.
