Carslogie, an estate, with an ancient mansion, in Cupar parish, Fife. The mansion, 1½ mile WSW of Cupar town, was built in the early part of the 14th century; and for nearly 500 years was the seat of the Clephanes. An iron jougs, for punishment of offenders on the estate, hung till 1793 on an aged ash-tree in a field hard by; the fate is not known of the Clephane horn and steel hand, both rendered famous by Sir Walter Scott.
