| KNAPPACH FORD | Knappach Ford | Mr. Johnston Auchmill Mr. James King Mill of Kinnoir Mr. William Grant Robieston |
026 | This name applies to a private ford across the River Deveron. Different parties give a different origin of the name. The River at one time, after being flooded left little hillocks in the shallow water of the ford - and the appearance of those little hillocks of Gravel in the ford is no doubt the origin of the name. |
| KEMP'S BRIG | Kemp's Brig | Mr. Johnston Auchmill Mr. James King Mill of Kinnoir Mr. William Grant Robieston |
026 | A name given to a few large stones about 13 chains north of Knappach Ford which nearly form stepping stones across the river. There is a [Legend] of a man of that name - who placed The stones There - which is very improbable - however he is said to have had his Satanic Majesty to help him. They are well known by that name |
