Carneil, an eminence in Carnock parish, Fife, adjacent to the Stirling and Dunfermline railway, 5 furlongs WSW of Carnock village. It rises to an altitude of 400 feet above sea-level; commands an extensive view of the basin of the Forth, from Stirling to Edinburgh; is supposed to have been a camping-ground both of the Caledonians and the Romans in the time of Agricola; and has furnished several Roman urns.
