In 1867 a great quantity of bones, said to be from a conflict between troops of Guy, Count of Namur, and those of the Earls of Moray and March in 1335, was found about 5ft below the surface, on the northern verge of the Burghmuir, where Glengyle Terrace now stands (NT 2493 7262 - NT 2508 7264). They were reburied by the authorities.
