051 | A large stream which rises, or issues, from St. Colme's Loch, and after a course of several miles falls into the River Isla. "The Lunan is by far the most considerable stream in the parish. Collected from different sources in the Grampians, a little to the north of Dunkeld, it proceeds eastward and forms the lochs of Craiglash, of Lows, of Butterstone, of Clunie, and of Drumellie. From this last, it diverts its course to the south-east, and passing by the Roman camp at Craighill in Caputh, it joins the Isla, at a point about 2 miles north-east of the junction of the Isla and the Tay. The course of the Lunan is about 12 miles, and somewhat resembles a bended bow." Fullarton's Gazetteer. |
