Prince William’s Seat… now that’s a noble sounding hill. Some say the origin of its name is attributed to the visit of the English monarch King George IV in 1821 or William III around 130 years earlier. But a huge granite tor around a kilometre-and-a-half to the west of its summit might suggest otherwise. Known locally as Fitzwilliam’s Seat, this weathered tor has enough room for several people to sit on. It was named after the Fitzwilliam clan, owners of these lands in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, as this was where group members would rest during hunts with their dogs. Fittingly, the summit close to this tor is known as Knocknagun (meaning ‘hill of the hounds’), probably a variation or corruption of Cloghnagun which means ‘rock of the hounds’.
