Robroyston, an estate, with a modern mansion, in Cadder parish, Lanarkshire, 4 miles NE of Glasgow. A cottage on it, standing till 1826, is said to have been the place where Sir William Wallace was betrayed to the English; and a neighbouring lake, which figures in the history of the patriot's betrayal, has been nearly all drained, and is now represented by a gloomy expanse partially engirt with pine trees.—Ord. Sur., sh.
