"The torrent which discharges itself from Loch Vennachar, the lowest
and eastmost of the three lakes which form the scenery adjoining to the
Trosachs, sweeps through a flat and extensive moor, called Bochastle.
Upon a small eminence called the Dun of Bochastle, and indeed on the
plain itself, are some intrenchments which have been thought Roman.
There is adjacent to Callander a sweet villa, the residence of Captain
Fairfoul, entitled the Roman Camp."
