The adjoining grounds of Tulliallan Castle, extending to a great distance east of the castle, are laid out in beautiful walks formed out of the old moor of Culross, the termination of which and of the ancient burgh territory is marked by the celebrated “ Bore ” or boundary stone—a shapeless lump of sandstone, which lies about a quarter of a mile from the house, near the kennels, on the left side of the rivulet which comes down from Tulliallan Water. In the days when the Culross marches formed an annual pageant, it used to be a favourite jest with the people of Kincardine to cover the Bore-stone with leeks, in anticipation of the arrival of the Culross magnates, and as a mild pleasantry in reference to the commodity in the growth of which their town enjoyed a preeminence.
The Borestone, a sandstone boulder 2'9" high and 3'10" long, is said to mark a point on the boundary between Tulliallan and Culross.
This stone is a rough, uninscribed, natural boulder.
