Broich, an estate, with a mansion, in Crieff parish, Perthshire, ¾ mile S of the town. The mansion, enlarged by a wing in 1881, is the seat of Alex. MacLaurin Monteath, Esq. (b. 1834; suc. 1880). An ancient Caledonian standing stone is on the estate; and two larch-trees, overshadowing a circle of 12 yards in diameter, were on it in 1860, when their site, being trenched and levelled, was found to inhume two ancient stone cists, one of them containing human remains and an urn.
