Drumquhassle

[3] The name selected for the fort deliberately made it hard for English born readers to pronounce.

[4] The fort was from the Flavian period;[5] it was built and briefly occupied by during the administration of Sallustius Lucullus.

[6] It is known as a "Glen-blocker" fort and is located within sight of Loch Lomond.

[7] It is associated with the road running from Loudoun Hill past Barochan towards Malling, Bochastle and Dalginross.

[12] The fort is about 50 m west of a reliable spring which was presumably the soldiers' main water source.
