[note]
"There are several springs which may be called perennial
in the parish. One of these which is situated in the flower garden of
Pitfour is worthy of particular notice. It sends forth a very strong current at all times
the quantity varying little in Summer or winter. Its supply is at the rate of 20 gallons imperial
per minute. In some distant age it had no doubt been deemed worthy of sacred regard, for the name by
which it is designated is Tranty or Trinity."
