Notes
The NGR given is for Dalbog, where a supposed chapel is marked on the OS 6 inch 1st edn map, though this is by no means certain. But this parish appears in a tax record circa 1250 as Dulbrodoc (Dunf. Reg. 210), and this may refer not to Dalbog, which lies very close to Edzell, but rather to Dalbrack (NO472781), which now lies in Lochlee parish.
Parish details
Dalbog now part of Edzell EZL, or perhaps part of Lochlee, if the name is represented by OS Dalbrack.
