What is recorded here
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Panbreck as Covenanters Meeting Place (17th Century) (1684). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Panbreck is associated with the Covenanters, a 17th-century religious and political movement in Scotland that resisted episcopal governance and upheld Presbyterianism. The site was used as a secret meeting place, reflecting the persecution faced by Covenanters under the rule of King Charles II.
