a station on the Edinburgh and Glasgow railway, 9 miles W.S.W. of Falkirk. Here was one of the principal stations of the wall of Antoninus; and in 1770 some workmen, while searching for stones for the canal which passes near it, discovered the foundations of eight apartments of stone, one of which contained a number of erect stones, probably the remains of the hypocaust of a bath, with marks of fire upon them. In a hollow of the rock near this place, about 100 quarters of wheat, black through age, were found in 1771, with some wedges and hammers supposed to be Roman. The formation of the Edinburgh and Glasgow railway has almost entirely obliterated this remarkable fort.—(See Stuart's Caledonia Romana, edited by David Thomson. 4to, 1852.)
