The junction of these two Burns forms a Considerable stream, which forms the boundary between the parishes of St Ninians and Fintry for about 1½ miles. It then takes a westerly direction passing close to the village of Fintry and supplies a Spinning Mill and a Wauk Mill near to that village; and after a course of about 6 miles through this parish it forms the boundary between the parishes of Balfron and Killearn and flows into Loch Lomond. The Endrick Water is a bold and rapid stream with a rocky bed and rugged banks, until it reaches the Loup of Fintry, a waterfall of about 90 feet in height, its course is then smoother and through a shingly bed. The Endrick Water receives many small tributariess in its course through the parish of Fintry, the principal ones of which are the Gonachan, Balmenoch & Slachan Burns, Hall Burn, Kilewnan Burn, and a great number of smaller burns without names. |
