Summary[edit]

Description
English: Lady Douglas's Grave This grave is at Douglashead Farm. Alison's father remembers from his childhood in the area a story that it is the grave of a Lady Douglas who was captured and beheaded here. Aberdeenshire Council's Sites and Monuments Record corroborates this, indicating "...traditionally a Lady Douglas was pursued & killed by soldiers during a rebellion & buried here; grave enclosed by iron railings." [see http://www.aberdeenshire.gov.uk/archaeology/smr/smr_recdetails.asp?Rno=NJ83SE0041&curpage=2&RefNo=&Name=&Mapsheet=&Period=*&Typ=GRAVES&Typ2=&Typ3=&Parish=* ]. A quick web search does not indicate any clues as to which Lady Douglas and what rebellion is being referred to so any further background information would be very welcome.
