Grassy Walls, a Roman camp, now all but obliterated, in Scone parish, Perthshire, on the left bank of the Tay, 3¾ miles N by W of Perth. Oblong in shape, and 535 yards in circumference, it seems to have been formed by Agricola (83 a.d.), and by Severus (208) to have been connected by a road with Stirling to the SW and Battle Dykes to the NE.—Ord. Sur., sh. 48, 1868. See Gen. William Roy's Military Antiquities of the Romans (Lond. 1793).
