Scope and Content Croislich township, 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. Croislich was one of the largest townships in Glen Lui with eight buildings and two lime-kilns. This plan shows in black the L-shaped range of an 18th-century farmhouse and outbuildings, together with an earlier farmhouse and a small enclosure. 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.
