  • The Dewars of St. Fillan

    The Dewars of St. Fillan

    History of the Clan Macnab part five: The Dewars of St. Fillan The following articles on the Dewar Sept of the Clan Macnab were taken from several sources. No attempt has been made to consolidate the articles; instead they are presented as in the original source, which is given at the beginning of each section. Hence there will be some duplication of material. David Rorer Dewar means roughly “custodian” and is derived from the Gallic “Deoradh,” a word originally meaning “stranger” or “wanderer,” probably because the person so named carried St. Fillan’s relics far a field for special purposes. Later, the meaning of the word altered to “custodian.” The relics they guarded were the Quigrich (Pastoral staff); the Bernane (chapel Bell), the Fergy (possibly St. Fillan’s portable alter), the Mayne (St. Fillan’s arm bone), the Maser (St. Fillan’s manuscript). There were, of course other Dewars than the Dewars of St. Fillan and the name today is most familiar as that of a blended scotch whisky produced by John Dewar and Sons Ltd St. Fillan is mentioned in the Encyclopedia Britannica, 14th edition of 1926, as follows: Fillan, Saint or Faelan, the name of two Scottish saints, of Irish origin, whose lives are of a legendary character. The St. Fillan whose feast is kept on June 20 had churches dedicated to him at Ballyheyland, Queen’s county, Ireland, and at Loch Earn, Perthshire (see map of Glen Dochart). The other, who is commerated on January 9, was specially venerated at Cluain Mavscua in County Westmeath, Ireland. Also beginning about the 8th or 9th century at Strathfillan, Perthshire, Scotland, where there was an ancient monastery dedicated to him.

There are many keys to unlocking the potential which will allow our rural communities to thrive, however economic development leading to jobs must be one of the most important As an area of nationally scenic importance, tourism remains one growth element; any development that allows visitors to stop safely for a moment and enhance their holiday experience can only be applauded. Your Community Company's proposal will not only benefit local businesses, but hopefully will encourage the all-important return visits. Yours with best wishes, John Kerr.

History This route was proposed by members of the local community and in 2008 a Feasibility Study was commissioned by the North Argyll Community Trust and funded by Scottish Natural Heritage. Scottish Natural Heritage has since considered this route as part of a feasibility study for a “Pilgrims Way” linking Iona with St Andrews. However neither project has made much progress to date. The most significant issue to solve is that of finding a route through the pass of Brander. Scottish Power Renewables are currently seeking a route for buried cable between Oban and Dalmally and it has been suggested that by combining the two projects it may be possible to deliver the path in the medium term. 4. Site Visit N/A 5. Alternative Route/s N/A 6. Consultation with Objectors & Other Interested Parties i) Houses Loch Awe Village - Path next to houses Davar, Mo Dairach and the Sheiling should be moved higher up the hill. ii) Houses at Tullich - The section of path at Tullich and Anne Lea is too close to these properties iii) Kilchurn Castle to Loch Awe - The section between Loch Awe hotel and Kilchurn Castle should be a core path iv) Forestry - There is concern that core path status will affect the ability of the forestry manager to close the route for health and safety reason.
