NARRATIVE
ON PRINT - A few hundred yards further inland,
from the farms of East and West Seaton, is
the highway to Seaton House, the Law Hill,
crowned with its clump of old trees—a
primitive seat of justice—and Auchmithie.
Along this road, skirted for a considerable
way by the Seaton Woods, there is some charming
rural scenery.
About its commencement, on the north of the
road, near the Ladel Well, was situated the
old mansion-house of South Tarry. The house
stood on the Horologe Hill—a slight eminence
which derices its name from a sun-dial which
formerly stood there, within the grounds of
the house. The site of the mansion-house is
still marked by a few trees. (Notes
by George Hay, 1883)
