‘At the end of the red(dish)-coloured place’. Described as the land with which the parish church of Kilrymont was endowed (RRS i no. 239, St A. Lib. 132–3, RRS ii no. 28), it probably lay at or near the original parish kirk of the Holy Trinity of St Andrews beside the cathedral (see SSL Introduction, The Development of the Parish, for more details). It probably refers to red stainings from iron deposits within the calciferous sandstone bedrock of the area.
Compare Dargie, Invergowrie PER, which appears as Dargoch 1162 × 1164 (RRS i no. 251).
