Robbie Burns visited famous fiddler Neil Gow in 1787; Queen Victoria was 'much pleased' to visit many times; J.M. Barrie's 'Little Minister' was filmed there; Alexander Mackenzie, first Canadian Prime Minister was born here. No 6B was the parish manse for Lundieff, now Kinloch, along the picturesque route of the five lochs, home of an osprey haven.
