The upper veelage haes a 12t century motte - the 'Bal' o Balmaclellan. Barscobe Castle is juist ower a mile til the nor'east, built in 1648 bi William Maclellan, a fine exemple o the last stage o tour hoose biggin in Scotland.

A saxt man, John Henry Upton Spalding, Lt. RN, an officer that dee'd at Sevastopol, is commemoratit on his faimily's toumstane bit no on the memorial itsel.

She wis ane o the last "witches" tae be executit in Scotland.
