Scope and Content Corn-drying kiln, Ryntean, Glen Lui, Mar Lodge Estate, Aberdeenshire Glen Lui was well populated in the 18th century, with eight townships, until the glen was cleared in 1776 to encourage an increase in deer for hunting. The remains include dwellings, barns, kilns, enclosures, cultivation rigs and sheilings. These are the stone footings of a corn-drying kiln and barn set into a natural hillock beside the Lui Water at Ryntean (Ruighe an t-Sidhein). The walls were thick and built of clay-bonded stone rubble. Mar Lodge estate was part of the medieval Earldom of Mar. The Forest of Mar became a hunting reserve in medieval times and was revived as such in the 19th century, after a period of sheep-farming in the 18th and early 19th centuries.
