096 ; 108 The parish of Trinity Gask is in the Presbytery of Auchterarder, and Synod of Perth and Stirling. Patron the Earl of Kinnoul.
The present parish comprehends the ancient parishes of Kinkell and Wester Gask, one of which had a second place of worship at a locality still called Chapelhill; and the union of the three churches into one parish is said to have given rise to the name Trinity Gask.
The parish contains about 5784 Statute acres and is bounded on the south by Blackford and Auchterarder parishes; on the east, by the parishes of Dunning, Auchterarder detached No.1, Dunning detached, and Findo Gask; on the north by Madderty parish; and on the west, by the parishes of Monzie detached No.1 and Muthill.
The soil of this parish is very various; but on about three fourths of the parochial area, is beatufully cultivated and enclosed, and over the remaining fourth promises soon to own the dominion of the plough. The district is richly planted and has clothing of trees athwart an aggregate area of about 1,000 acres.
There are no detached portions of this parish nor are there any detached portions of another parish situated within it.
