OS 6" map, (1938)
There may have been more than one bedehouse in Cullen. William Lawtie, who died in 1657, founded a bedehouse for farmers and farmers' widows.
Again, a hospital is said to have been founded for men by the family of Findlater, while another was founded for women by the same family. These would probably not be earlier than the 17th century.

No traces of this bede-house or hospital remain in what is now grass-park land.
