The ground where the Battle of Largs was fought (NS25NW: centred NS 207 587) was let on building leases during recent times, when the graves of the slain were discovered. In one of these were found among the bones thirteen pieces of silver, some whereof were carved, and no doubt served as ornaments of dress (Edinburgh Evening Courant, 5 December 1813).
