Blacklaw, a ruined tower of the Douglases of Fingland, in Moffat parish, Dumfriesshire, near the left bank of Evan Water, 2½ miles WNW of Moffat town. Behind it rises Blacklaw Hill (907 feet), and Blacklaw Burn runs by it to the Evan down a precipitous ravine. The Douglas of Fingland about 1700 was author of Annie Laurie.
