Angus Gray
Fintry Archives
Angus Gray held the position of Estate Manager for 24 years, from 1924 until 1948, continuing in the position for the Fairbridge Farm School.
Angus Gray pinned the nickname ”Laird” on Dun-Waters. One winter day, the men were waiting at the rink for Dun-Waters to arrive in his Scottish tam and tweed breeches. Gray watched while Dun-Waters strolled over and then paused to enjoy the view. It struck Gray that he looked like an old-time Scottish Laird surveying his property, and he called out “Aye lads, here comes the Laird of Fintry.” The nickname stuck.
