TheFEITSEIELeither record or any distinct tradition. There are like-Tvise in the parish two motes, and four very large cairns.For ii miles at the upper end, the parish has no road ;for 5J more it has only one along the Scar, but elsewhereit is tolerably well provided. Its southern margin istraversed by the road from Thomhill to Moniaive ; andall its south-eastern district has near access to the Thornhilland Carronbridge stations <strong>of</strong> the Glasgow and South-Western railway. The Duke <strong>of</strong> Buccleuch owns sixsevenths<strong>of</strong> all the parish, 3 other proprietors holdingeach an annual value <strong>of</strong> between £100 and £500,2 <strong>of</strong> from £50 to £100, and 12 <strong>of</strong> from £20 to £50. Penpontis the seat <strong>of</strong> a presbytery in the synod <strong>of</strong> Dumfries; the living is worth £461. The parish church,built in 1867 at a cost <strong>of</strong> £3000 from plans by the lateCharles Howitt, architect to His Grace, is a handsomeGothic edifice, said to be one <strong>of</strong> the finest parish churchesin <strong>Scotland</strong>, with 500 sittings, an organ, and a spire 120feet high. The East Free church dates from Disruptiontimes ; the West (1791 ; 500 sittings) till 1876 wasReformed Presbyterian ; and the present Reformed Presbyterianchurch was built in 1875, and contains 300sittings. At Btjrnhead is a U.P. church (1800; 700sittings) ; and two public schools, Penpont and Woodside,with respective accommodation for 210 and 41 children,had (1883) an average attendance <strong>of</strong> 121 and 37,and grants <strong>of</strong> £120, 8s. 6d. and £40, 13s.

See Whittingham.Penston, a collier village in Gladsmuir parish, Haddingtonshire,3 miles S <strong>of</strong> Longniddry station, and 2JE by S <strong>of</strong> Tranent. The barony <strong>of</strong> Penston, lyingaround the village, belonged towards the close <strong>of</strong> the13th century to William de Baliol, nephew <strong>of</strong> JohnBaliol <strong>of</strong> Barnard Castle, the fatlier <strong>of</strong> King John Balioland passed to his descendants, the Baillies <strong>of</strong> Laming-TON. It had, near the village, a strong old mansion,now represented by only the garden ; has been famous,since the 14th century, for excellent coal ;yielded coal,in the time <strong>of</strong> Oliver Cromwell, under a yearly rental <strong>of</strong>£400 ; and, in 1834, when its old mines seemed to benear exhaustion, had a new pit sunk in another quarter.—Ord. Sur., sh. 33, 1863.PentlaJid, an ancient but suppressed parish near thecentre <strong>of</strong> the county <strong>of</strong> Edinburgh, and containing thehamlets <strong>of</strong> Pentland and New Pentland, which standon or near the road from Edinburgh to Peebles byLiberton, and 4J miles S <strong>of</strong> Edinburgh. The namehas, probably, notwithstanding the author <strong>of</strong> Caledoniato the contrary, been taken from the adjoining hills,the old name <strong>of</strong> which, as well as <strong>of</strong> the Firth, seems tonave been Petland or Pictland. This title they arenow supposed to have acquired from having formed thedebatable ground or boundaries to the S and the N<strong>of</strong> the Pictish territories. The parish church, whichstood at the village <strong>of</strong> Pentland, seems to have beengranted to the monks <strong>of</strong> Holyrood at the founding <strong>of</strong>that abbey, and was confirmed to them in 1240, butbefore the death <strong>of</strong> Alexander III. it was an independentrectory, which in the 14th and two followingcenturies was under the patronage <strong>of</strong> the earls <strong>of</strong>Orkney and barons <strong>of</strong> Roslin. The parish was suppressedafter the Reformation, and the northern partannexed to Lasswade, while the southern, comprehendingthe barony <strong>of</strong> Falford, was united to the parish <strong>of</strong>St Catherine, now Glencorse.Pentland Firth, a strait along the E portion <strong>of</strong> the N178;'PENTLAND FIRTHcoast <strong>of</strong> Caithness, separating the Orkney islands fromthe mainland <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>. Its length, from a linedrawn on the E from Duncansbay Head to Old Head atthe SE point <strong>of</strong> South Ronaldsay, to a line drawn onthe W from Dunnet Head to The Barry in Hoy, is 14miles. The width from Duncansbay Head to BroughNess in South Ronaldsay is 6J miles, and the widthfrom Dunnet Head to Tor Ness in Hoy is 7| miles. Inthe centre the width is greater, as a triangular projection,measuring 10 miles along the base from E to W and 4deep, is sent <strong>of</strong>f to the N between the islands <strong>of</strong> SouthRonaldsay and Flotta and Walls, and passes by theSound <strong>of</strong> Hoxa into Scapa Flow. Three and a halfmiles WNW <strong>of</strong> Duncansbay Head is the island <strong>of</strong>Stroma, included in the county <strong>of</strong> Caithness, andseparated from the mainland by the Inner Sound (IJmile). Six and a half miles N bj' W <strong>of</strong> DuncansbayHead is the island <strong>of</strong> Swona, included among theOrkneys and belonging to the parish <strong>of</strong> South Ronaldsay,aud 4j miles NE <strong>of</strong> Duncansbay Head ; and at theeastern entrance to the Firth are the Pentland Sker-EIES, consisting <strong>of</strong> Muckle Skerry, with Little Skerry5 mile S by E, Louther Skerry f mile SE, and ClettackSkerry 1 mile E by S. The two last are tidal, and asthe whole group lies right in the middle <strong>of</strong> this muchfrequented passage, and at a point where approach toeither shore is dangerous from the strength <strong>of</strong> the current,it early became necessary to mark them by night,for which purpose a lighthouse was erected on the MucldeSkerry in 1794. The rocks are at present marked bytwo fixed lights placed in towers, one <strong>of</strong> which is 170feet, and the other 140 feet, high. These are 100 feetapart from SSW to NNE, and are visible at a distance <strong>of</strong>18 aud 19 nautical miles. The only inhabitants <strong>of</strong> theSkerries are the lighthouse keepers and their families,who numbered 19 in 1861, 14 in 1871, and 17 in 1881.Though the Pentland Firth is the most dangerouspassage in the British seas, it must be traversed by allvessels passing from the E <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong> to the Atlantic,or from the W to the North Sea, except those smallenough to be accommodated by the Caledonian Canal,and hence over 5000 vessels pass through every year inspite <strong>of</strong> the danger and difficulty <strong>of</strong> the navigation.This danger and difficulty arises from the exti'emerapidity with which the tidal current here runs—from6 to 12 miles an hour—and from the eddies by which itis in many cases accompanied. The chief <strong>of</strong> these latter,which are caused either by turns <strong>of</strong> the tide-race or bysunk reefs forming obstructions along the bottom, arethe line <strong>of</strong> breakers <strong>of</strong>f Duncansbay Head known as the' Boars' or ' Bores <strong>of</strong> Duncansbay ; ' the line <strong>of</strong> breakers<strong>of</strong>f St John's Point midway between Duncansbay Headand Dunnet Head, known as the Merry Men ' <strong>of</strong> Mey ;the whirlpool at the N corner <strong>of</strong> Stroma, known as the' Swelkie ' (see Orkney) ; and the whirlpool near Swonacalled the ' Wells <strong>of</strong> Swona. ' current during floodflows from W to E, and during ebb from I to W, andships have to wait at either end till the set <strong>of</strong> the streamis in the direction in which they wish to pass, as it isutterly useless to attempt to push on against the flow.The stream along the coasts flows in a direction opposite'to that <strong>of</strong> the central or main current. The floodtide,' says the writer <strong>of</strong> the account <strong>of</strong> the parish <strong>of</strong>Dunnet in the New Statistical Account, ' runs from westto east at the rate <strong>of</strong> ten miles an hour, with new andfull moon. It is then high-water at Scarfskerry [midwaybetween Dunnet Head and St John's Point] at nineo'clock. Immediately as the water begins to fall on theshore, the current turns to the west ; but the strength<strong>of</strong> the flood is so great in the middle <strong>of</strong> the firth that ifcontinues to run east till about twelve. With a gentlebreeze <strong>of</strong> westerly wind, about eight o'clock in themorning, the whole firth seems as smooth as a sheet <strong>of</strong>glass, from Dunnet Head to Hoy Head in Orkney.About nine the sea begins to rage for about 100 yards<strong>of</strong>f the Head, while all without continues smooth asbefore. This appearance gradually advances towardsthe firth and along the shore towards the east, thoughthe effects are not much felt upon the shore till it
—PENTLAND HILLSreaches Scarfskerry Head, as the land between thesepoints forms a considerable bay. By two o'clock thewhole firth seems to rage. About three in the afternoonit is low-water on the shore, when all the formerphenomena are reversed—the smooth water beginningto appear next the land and advancing gradually till itreaches the middle <strong>of</strong> the firth.' These opposite currentsare perplexing to those unacquainted with the Firth,but the boatmen <strong>of</strong> the adjacent coast know them well,and invariably make use <strong>of</strong> them when sailing about.In a calm, more particularly during a fog, the danger isincreased rather than diminished, for ships drift alongwhile the crew believe them to be stationary. At fullspring tides the rise <strong>of</strong> the sea is 8 feet, and on extraordinaryoccasions 14 feet, while at neap the rise is from3J to 6 feet, and the firth is most stormy when a springflood-tide is running against a gale blowing from theopposite direction. The islands and the adjoiningcoast suS"er most severely when gale and flow act together.'The great storm <strong>of</strong> December 1862,' says MrC. W. Peach, ' in particular distinguished itself by thehavoc which it wrought along these shores. It sweptthe sea over the north end <strong>of</strong> the island <strong>of</strong> Stroma,which lies in the Pentland Firth, and redistributed theruin-heaps there. The waves ran bodily up and overthe vertical cliff's on the west side, 200 feet in height,lodging portions <strong>of</strong> the wrecked boats, stones, seaweeds,etc., on the top. They rushed in torrents across theisland, tearing up the ground and rocks in their coursetowards the old mill at Nethertown on the oppositeside. This mill had <strong>of</strong>ten before been worked by watercollected from spray thrown over these cliffs, but neverhad such a supply been furnished as by this gale. Onecurious phenomenon was noticed at the south end <strong>of</strong>Stroma : the sea there came in such a body between theisland and the Caithness coast, that at intervals it roseup like a wall, as if the passage was too narrow for themass <strong>of</strong> water which, forced onwards from the Atlanticbetween Holburn Head on the Caithness shore and theOld Man <strong>of</strong> Hoy on the Orkney side, passed bodily overthe cliffs <strong>of</strong> Stroma.' Even in summer the effects <strong>of</strong> agale is <strong>of</strong>ten grand and almost sublime. 'Nowhereelse, ' says Dr Archibald Geikie, round ' the Britishislands can the tourist look down on such a sea. Itseems to rush and roar past him like a vast river, butwith a flow some three times swifter than our mostrapid rivers. Such a broad breast <strong>of</strong> rolling, eddying,foaming water ! Even when there is no wind the tideebbs and flows in this way, pouring now eastwards nowwestwards, as the tidal wave rises and falls. But if heshould be lucky enough to come in for a gale <strong>of</strong> wind(and they are not unknown there in summer, as he willprobably learn), let him by no means fail to take up hisstation on Duncansbay Head or at the Point <strong>of</strong> Mey.He wUl choose if he can a time when the tide is comingup against the wind. The water no longer looks likethe eddying current <strong>of</strong> a mighty river. It ratherresembles the surging <strong>of</strong> rocky rapids. Its surface isone vast sheet <strong>of</strong> foam and green yeasty waves. Everynow and then a huge billow rears itself impatientlyabove the rest, tossing its sheets <strong>of</strong> spray in the face <strong>of</strong>the wind which scatters them back into the boilingflood. Here and there, owing to the configuration <strong>of</strong>the bottom, this turmoil waxes so furious that a constantdance <strong>of</strong> towering breakers is kept up. . . .solid sheets <strong>of</strong> water rush up the face <strong>of</strong> the cliffs [<strong>of</strong>Duncansbay Head] for more than 100 feet, and pourover the top in such volume, that it is said they haveactually been intercepted on the landward side by a damacross a little valley, and have been used to turn a mill.'Pentland Hills, a group <strong>of</strong> hills commencing in Edinburghshire,3 miles SW <strong>of</strong> Edinburgh, and extendingthence south-westward for 16 miles through the counties<strong>of</strong> Edinburgh, Peebles, and Lanark, to near Camwath,where they slope into Clydesdale. The average breadthis from 4 to 6 miles. They nowhere form a continuouschain or ridge, but are broken up by many intersectingravines and hollows, the principal being the valleyoccupied by the Glencorse Burn near the NE end,FEHSIEand the Cauldstane Slap between East and 'West CairnHills near the centre. Through the latter there is arough cross-road from the Edinburgh and Lanark roadup the valley <strong>of</strong> the Water <strong>of</strong> Leith, to the Edinburghand Dumfries road, by Penicuik and Biggar, at Linton;and at many points the hills are traversed by footpaths,over the attempted shutting up <strong>of</strong> which, againstpublic use, a good deal <strong>of</strong> feeling has recently beenexcited. Along the N\V the rocks belong to the CalciferousSandstone series <strong>of</strong> the Carboniferous System,while along the SE they belong to the Lower OldRed Sandstone System, and have to the N a thickseries <strong>of</strong> interbedded porphyrites <strong>of</strong> the same age.At several points there are patches <strong>of</strong> Upper Silurianrocks, which are above North Esk reservoir and elsewherevery richly fossiliferous. These must have been,at one time, wholly covered to a depth <strong>of</strong> from 6000to 7000 feet by carboniferous rocks, all <strong>of</strong> which havebeen removed by denudation. Ice action has beentraced over 1600 feet above sea-level, and erratics thatmust have come from the NW are found over 1000 feetup. There are numerous springs and streams, thosenear the N end providing the water supply <strong>of</strong> Edinburgh,Leith, and Portobello, the principal reservoirsbeing Torduff, Clubbiedean, and Bonaly, on the Nnear Bonaly Tower ; Glencorse and Loganlee reservoirs,in the basin <strong>of</strong> Glencorse Burn or Logan Water ; andListonshiels and Bavelaw (Threiprauir and Harelaw)reservoirs, in the basins <strong>of</strong> the Water <strong>of</strong> Leith and itstributary, Bavelaw Burn. Other reservoirs are NorthEsk reservoir, for regulating the supply to the millsalong that stream, and Cobinshaw and Crosswood reservoirson Murieston and Linhouse Waters, and connectedwith the supply <strong>of</strong> the Union Canal. Besides thestreams already mentioned, there is Lyne Water on theSW, flowing by Linton to the Tweed near Lyne church.The appearance <strong>of</strong> the hills varies considerably, but iseverywhere more or less rounded. In some districtsthey are bleak and heathy, but in others they aregreen and covered with excellent pasture. The sceneryalong their skirts and in some <strong>of</strong> the glens <strong>of</strong> the intersectingstreams is very pretty ; and near the centre <strong>of</strong> theSE side along the North Esk at Carlops, on the borders<strong>of</strong> the counties <strong>of</strong> Edinburgh and Peebles, are Habbie'sHowe, and the rest <strong>of</strong> the scenery rendered classic inRamsay's Gentle Shepherd ; while 1| mile N by W <strong>of</strong>Penicuik, on the shoulder <strong>of</strong> Carnethy, is the scene <strong>of</strong>the battle <strong>of</strong> Rullion Gkeen. The principal summitsfrom NE to SAV are AUermuir Hill (1617 feet). CastlelawHill (1595), Bells Hill (1330), Black Hill (1628),Carnethy (1890), Hare Hill (1470), Scald Law (thehighest, 1898), West Kip (1806), East Cairn (1839),West Cairn (1844), Mount Maw (1753), Craigengar(1700), Byrehope Mount (1752), Faw Mount (1366),King's Seat (1521), Fadden Hill (1526), Millstone Rig(143'9), AVhite Craig (1425), Catstone Hill (1470),Black Law (1336), Harrows Law (1360), Black Birn(1213), Bleak Law (1460), Mid Hill (1347), and LeftLaw (1210). From Catstone Hill a scattered series <strong>of</strong>hills pass southward by Mendick Hill (1480 feet), BlythHill (1007), and Broughton Heights (1872), and connectthe Pentlands with the Southern Uplands. In 1883-84there was much correspondence and some litigation withregard to the right <strong>of</strong> way over the Pentlands. ThePentlands, <strong>of</strong> which Lord Cockburn wrote about 1825that 'there is not a recess in their valleys, nor aneminence on their summits, that is not familiar to mysolitude. One summer I read every word <strong>of</strong> Tacitus inthe sheltered crevice <strong>of</strong> a rock (called My ' Seat ') about800 feet above the level <strong>of</strong> the sea, with the most magnificent<strong>of</strong> scenes stretched out before me.
