Thus sanctified they ])roceeded to retail the property in lots to various people, or in other words, no doubt, to the highest bidders. The last stones of the ])riory buildings, which ad- joined the church on the river bank, were carried away 246 AUmy St. JidfJian^ more than a hundred years ago, and no doubt many walls and barns and cottages in the hamlet indirectly owe nuieh of their substance to the piety of William the Lion's daughter. Part of the walls in the little church are, I believe, re...mains of the original building, while the site of a chapel is pointed out a few himdrcd yards to the east of the church in an enclosure, which is still called "the chapel field. " Near by, too, is St. Bathans spring, held of old as a sacred well with all the suitable healing properties attached to the character. The assertion that the religious orders showed an extra- ordinary partiality for the most beautiful and romantic spots is a sufficiently trite one, though undoubtedly a combination of the necessary water and the desirable seclusion all made for this delectable result.
