Summary
editDescriptionRamshaw Wood fort, Martyrs Hill, Buittle.jpg |
English: The Martyrs' Hill.
Marked as an ancient earthwork, the site contains the later gravesite attributed to some Covenanters. Forty years ago, having seen an iron age fort marked on the map, I climbed the hill and looked all round the slopes where I thought it was supposed to be, but couldn't see any sign of it....When I went back down the hill I mentioned it to the old gamekeeper's widow, who said, "That's the Martyrs' Hill, with the graves of the Covenanters on it." Later I realised I had been walking all over the site, which, naturally was on the hilltop instead of down the slopes where I expected it. Yesterday, I revisited what is apparently the site of the Covenanters' graves. It's a nicely 'mature' bit of hilltop woodland with Scots Pines and some lovely old oaks, blaeberries, mosses and loads of what George Peterken calls 'coarse deadwood' (CDW) a great indicator of natural forest conditions.
