| FINTRY | [Continued from page 2] the east coast, and the other, the Endrick, after a course of upwards of twenty miles, falls into Loch Lomond near Balmaha. From this it will be understood, that Fintry lies on the highest ground in the district of country betwixt the Firths of Clyde and Forth. Two heritors, the Duke of Montrose and Mr. Speirs of Culcreuch, possess the whole lands in the parish. Mr. Speirs is the only residing heritor. The church is a very neat plain building, with a tower on the west end. It was built in 1823, and contains 500 sittings. It is three quarters of a mile from the Village but quite in the centre of the parish. It is an oblong square, with a gallery in one end, and the pulpit in the other. The manse is a new building and is a very convenient and good house. The old manse has been converted into offices. It was built in 1732. The Glebe contains nine Scotch acres, all now arable, and can be let at £3.0.0. per acre. The stipend is 44 bolls meal, 5 bolls 3 1/5 picks barley, and £24.10.0 money. £91.17.6 is drawn from the Exchequer. There are no detached portions of this parish, nor are there any detached portions of any other parish situated within it. |
