Bractullo, a circular artificial mound of conical outline in Kirkden parish, Forfarshire. In feudal times it was the place where criminals were executed; and now it is finely adorned with trees. Some ancient stone coffins, containing human bones with strings of black wooden beads, were not long ago discovered in its neighbourhood.
