In the mid 1750's the whole of this glen was one continuous mixed forest whose seclusion and cover made it ideal for caterans (cattle rustlers), outlaws and smugglers. Today, the glen has few trees and an air of peace and tranquility, making it a perfect destination for walkers.
One of the few times one might reasonably say, what a relief all those trees are gone.
