Claypots, an old castle in the E of Dundee parish, Forfarshire, 1 mile NW of Broughty Ferry. It is popularly regarded as the residence of a mistress of Cardinal Beaton; but it really was not built for some years after the cardinal's assassination. The legend of its brownie is given on pp. 326,327, of Chambers's Popular Rhymes of Scotland (3d ed. 1870).
