Cattle Rustling through Glenbuchat

From ‘Historical Papers relating to the Jacobite Period 1699-1750’by James Allardyce.

The above article mentions that the path of Cattle rustled in Speyside and Donside was over the Ladder Hills and via Glenbuchat and Glen Nochty to the South.

This all adds to the lawlessness of the Glen at the time with illicit whisky stills and whisky smuggling.
