133.15 |
A small village the houses of which are chiefly one storey in height and occupied by agricultural laborers and colliers. There are a few shops, three Public Houses, Free Church, Manse and School, it is the property of Lord Abercrombie Airthrie Park.
“The village of Tullibody is situated about two miles west of Alloa, and claims a comparatively high antiquity. It is said to be coeval with the accession of Kenneth King of the Scots, about the year of our Lord 834. On succeeding to the throne, this monarch, as may well be conceived, felt highly exasperated at the conduct of the Picts towards his father, whom they put to death, and whose head they affixed to the gate of their capital. Determined on revenge, and supported by the nobles, he proceeded forthwith against the enemy. Druskein, the Pictish monarch, aware of the gathering storm, summoned to his standard every Pict capable of bearing arms, and provided a large body of English auxiliaries. Assembling at Maiden Castle, a fortified place in Lothian and at that time in his possession, he marched in a westerly direction and, ordering supplies at Cameron, proceeded to Stirling, where he crossed the Forth, intending to encamp on its northern bank. In the meantime, Kenneth had approached to the distance of about 5 miles from Stirling, on the rising crofts, on the east side of the river Devon, Here with the greatest solemnity, he, his nobles and troops took an oath, that they
would not lay down their arms until either they or their adversaries fell. Here also they encamped for the night. Next morning at day break, Kenneth, with all his forces, proceeded westward, and coming up
with the enemy, attacked them with such skill and impetuosity, that in a few hours they were totally routed, with immense slaughter, In the evening, he returned with his slated troops to the fields which they had occupied in the morning; and as a mark of gratitude for this signal victory over his hereditary foe

and at the same time, as a memorial of the distinguished bravery and loyalty of the people, he caused a Stone to be erected, where the royal standard then stood, observing the ceremonial of anointing the pillar and making a vow. The stone was removed some years ago, But the spot is well known to the neighbourhood, and still receives the name of “Stan’ in’ Stane”. A little to the east of the field where the main body of his army was encamped, he also founded a village which he called “Tirlybothy”, (since varied into Tullibodie and Tullibody) a name originally signifying “the oath of the Croft”, Such was the origin of this village.”

The old church of Tullibody stands in the centre of the graveyard at the northern extremity of the village, and surrounded by a number of aged gravestones, some of which date as far back as the 16th century, The church is in a good state of preservation, is roofed with flagstones, but is dis-used as a place of worship.
“This small, but venerable edifice was built by David I King of Scotland, in the year 1149. By charter, bearing the same date, he granted as a provision for its priest, certain lands in the neighbourhood of Inches (Islands) in the Forth; and the pious monarch ordained that it should be subordinate to the rich and splendid abbey of Cambuskenneth, which two years before he had built on the very spot where his royal ancestor, Kenneth, gave the fatal blow to the Pictish dominion. For upwards of 400 years the rites of the Roman Catholic Faith were celebrated in this church. It is recorded that the church was unroofed by the French in 1559. These, under Monsieur D’ Oysel, hearing of the arrival of the English fleet, were thrown into such alarm that they thought of nothing but immiedate retreat. They proceeded accordingly towards Stirling, intending there to cross the Forth,. Kirkcaldy of Grange determined to arrest their progress, broke down the bridge of Tullibody over the Devon. Finding it impassable they unroofed the church employing the materials to cover the breach which Kirkcaldy had made. In this state the church of Tullibody remained till about the middle of last century, when it was roofed in, and in other respects improved by George Abercrombie Esqr of Tullibody. It has since been employed as a cemetery to the family. About 6 years ago, it was fitted up by subscription as a preaching station for the benefit of the village and neighbourhood.” Statistical Acct [Account] |

“The Devon, or North Devon, rises in the parish of Blackford in the county of Perth, and, descending with impetuosity from the Ochils, where its course is to the east, till it reaches the Crook of Devon, in the parish of Fossaway; it then makes a very acute turn towards the west, and proceeding placidly in that direction through a highly picturesque and beautiful vale, often denominated the Arcadia of Scotland, falls into the Forth at the village of Cambus, about 2 miles from the town of Alloa.
Exclusive of its winding, the course of this river is more than 26 miles though the distance in a direct line from its source to its embouchure (directly north from and opposite its source) does not exceed 6 miles.”

Throsk Ford:
A ford across the River Fort[h]
from the Rhind point to the
south side. At low water of
extraordinary spring tides the
depth is only about three feet.
“At the Rhind Point, south from
Longcarse farmsteading, there is a
ford known by the name of the
Throsk Ford, which is the most
southerly part of this parish.
This ford is 4 feet higher than
the pitch of low water, or the
lowest ebb at Alloa harbour.”
Statistical Acct. [Account]
Note:
This name was omitted from the St Ninians’ plans from
information obtained when the Throsk district was being examined.
Opposite Throsk farmsteading, a narrow strip of shingle runs,
from a broad bed, almost across the river, having the appearance
of a ford, and thus originating the name. This shingle is fordable,
but the rest of the bed of the river is deep mud, and is not
considered to have ever been fordable, no more than at present.
As it cannot be shewn as a “Disused Ford” and as the name
would mislead the public if written – it is considered better to omit it. |

It is about 160 feet above the level of the Forth, and 92 feet above Alloa. In some places it is 36 or 37 feet deep, being sufficient to carry a seventy four gun ship - This lake is situated at the north east extremity of the parish about 2 miles N. E.
