  • The Church Bells of Wigtownshire
    The Church and other Bells of Wigtownshire BY F. C. Eeles & R. W. M. Clouston File 01: The entire book This document is provided for you by The Whiting Society of Ringers visit www.whitingsociety.org.uk for the full range of publications and articles about bells and change ringing The church and other bells of Wigtownshire by F C Eeles and R W M Clouston INTRODUCTION As in the case of the similar survey of the bells in the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright the late Dr F C Eeles' note-books have formed the basis of this account of the bells in Wigtownshire (Eeles and Clouston 1967). His visits had all been made before 1915 and a number of parishes had not been reached. Mr Clouston examined all the bells in the summers of 1963 and 1964 and revised Dr Eeles' notes where appropriate. This article is intended to be a companion to those surveys already published on bells in other Scottish counties which have appeared from time to time in the Proceedings. Wherever possible repetition of information is avoided. DISCUSSION The oldest existing bell in the county discovered in the survey is the disused one dated 1534 in the church at Kirkmaiden. The inscription records that Nicholas Ramsey, Lord of Dalhousie, caused the bell to be cast, and the inference is that John Morison was the founder though no other bells by him have been found. Unusually there are no moulding wires by the lip and at the top of the soundbow, though in other respects the founder followed traditional practice.

  • Place-Names in and Around the Fleet Valley
    Place-names in and around the Fleet Valley ==== L ==== Lady’s Well This well, with clear water running under covering stones now overgrown by bushes, is in Skyreburn Glen near the site of Kirkbride Chapel. Lady’s Well, Lady Well and Ladywell are common throughout England and Lowland Scotland. In most cases probably, and in a good many certainly, the name refers to Our Lady. That is probably the case here, given its proximity to the chapel dedicated to St Bride or Brighid (see Kirkbride above), who was known from as early as the seventh century as ‘Mary of the Irish’ or ‘of the Gaels’. Among many other powers ascribed to her, she was patroness of women in childbirth, and a late-recorded legend from the Hebrides even portrays her as midwife to Mary. A similar hint of an association between the Blessed Virgin and St. Bride is found in Kirkcolm parish in the North Rhinns, which contains St. Mary’s Well (marked as a historic monument on OS maps) to the south of the kirktoun, Lady Bay to the north, and Kirkbryde, with St. Bride’s Well, to the west. In the absence of evidence, we should be cautious of speculating, but it is reasonable to suppose that some beliefs connecting St. Bride and the Blessed Virgin were associated with these places, and maybe there was some cultic use of the wells, with pre-Christian roots. As suggested above, the cult of St. Bride may have been introduced in the tenth century by the Gall-Ghàidheil, and such beliefs and practices would have come with it.
