Gray, Parish Manse Sheriff's List of Parishes Valuation Roll for 1857-8 Fullaston's Gazetteer Oliver & Boyd's Almanac Old Statistical Account New Statistical Account 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.

[Statistical] Account, The only remarkable Spring is Trinity Well a little South of the Manse of great renown in Popish days for the performing of remarkable cures. BORE STONE Extract from Stat [Statistical] Account. There is also a peculiar looking Stone standing on the high ground about a mile to the north west of Gasconhall called the Borestone, It has borne an inscription, but age has so completely obliterated the characters, that it is impossible to decypher a single word, The figure of animals among which the boar and the Stag predominate may still be traced. Some maintain that it was a trysting place for the hunting of the wild boar, others that it was an instrument of punishment with which idea to stone corresponds, It is about 5 feet high with two holes at the top through which the arms of the delinquent might be thrust and be kept there ia a sort of pillory.
OS1/25/78/31 GASCON HALL (Remains of) Gascon Hall (Remains Of) Gascon Hall (Remains of) Gascon Hall (Remains of) Gascon Hall (Remains of) Rev. [Reverend] Mr. Gray Mr. Robert Wylie Mr Robert Brown New Statistical Account 108 The ruins of this old pile are situated in the east-end of the parish; and on the north bank of the River Earn. The settled tradition in the neighbourhood is, that, it was here where Sir William Wallace encountred the ghost of Fandon. The writer of the New Statistical Account of the Parish does not seem to place much confidence in this because "its appearance would not justify any such remote origin." What is here referred to, is supposed to be only a wing of the building, which is about 50ft. high, composed of unknown stone. Hence, one is led to believe that, it is of remote origin. The same writer goes on to say that, "The real Gascon Hall is said to have stood about a mile & a half east from this, amongst the present woods of Gask." Here again this statement is not in accordance with the fact of Sir William Wallace's immediately swimming the River Earn, after encountering the said ghost.
