In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Mortlach like this:
Mortlach, par., mid. Banffshire, 34,184 ac., pop. 2934; contains Duff town, at which is Mortlach Distillery. Near the church of Mortlach is an antiquity called "The Stone of Mortlach," which, according to tradition, was erected to commemorate the victory of Malcolm II. over the Danes in 1010.
