Brigton, a hill in Kinnettles parish, Forfarshire. It belongs to the Sidlaw group, but is detached or isolated; and has an elliptical outline and flattish top. It is all under cultivation, except a very few acres on its brow, and even there is clothed with wood; and it forms a beautiful feature in a considerable extent of landscape, rising to an altitude of 543 feet above sea-level, and commanding a grand, extensive, panoramic view.
