It's whole course - about twenty-five miles - is very sinuous, and flows in a northeast direction. It joins the River Forth near the farm of Cottonhaugh. "The etymology of the word Teith is very uncertain. Some have said it is derived from Teth or Te, hot, from the boiling appearance it almost uniformly presents on account of the rapidity of its current from Callander to its confluence with the River Forth". Copied from a book published by Dr Rodgers.
