OS 6" map, (1969)
The site of the castle of the Claverhouse family as indicated by Morris (Mr Morris, Schoolmaster) although a 19th century ruin occupies the generally accepted site at NO 4046 3380.
The foundation of the castle was removed about 1792 when objects indicating an ecclesiastical establishment - font, altar, etc - were discovered. These were deduced to have belonged to a chapel associated with the castle (Statistical Account {OSA} 1792).
OSA 1792; Name Book 1859.
No trace.
