Lee, Loch, a lake in Lochlee parish, N Forfarshire. Lying at an altitude of 880 feet above sea-level, it has an utmost length and breadth of 9 and 21/3 furlongs; has boats on its waters; and contains char and fine trout. The Queen describes it as ` a wild but not large lake, closed in by mountains, with a farm-house and a few cottages at its edge.' The Water of Lee, rising at an altitude of 2650 feet, winds 6 ½ miles east-by-southward to its head, and from its foot proceeds 1¼ mile east-by-northward till, at Invermark, it unites with the Water of Mark to form the North Esk.—Ord. Sur., shs. 65, 66, 1870-71.
