Colluthie, a mansion in Moonzie parish, NW Fife, 4½ miles NW by N of Cupar. Said to have been built about 1356 by Sir William Ramsay, son-in-law and successor of the last Earl of Fife of the ancient Macduff line, it is manifestly of later date, yet is remarkable for the thickness of its walls, and for arched doors and windows; and it long suffered such neglect as to become nearly uninhabitable, till about 1840 it underwent thorough renovation, being now the seat of Jn. Inglis, Esq., who owns 485 acres in the shire, valued at £1125 per annum. Colluthie Hill (430 feet) to the S of the mansion, is rocky on the top, and has been planted.
