Notes

NGR for Fossoway Old Parish Church, close to the River Devon, which forms part of the parish boundary here, dividing Fossoway from Muckhart. CORPUS: In about 1614 the parishes of Fossoway and Tullibole were united, though both were initially retained in use for worship, with services for two weeks at Fossoway, where the manse was located, and a service on the third week at Tullibole. In 1729, however, the two churches were demolished, and a new one built in a central location.
