CLACKMANNANSHIRE FIELD STUDIES SOCIETY

The CFSS was formed in October 1970 after attempting to revive the Alloa Society of Natural Science and Archaeology established in 1865. The society’s aims are “to promote interest in the environment and heritage of the local area” and it has some 100 members.

In winter there are fortnightly lectures or members nights, from September to April, beginning with a coffee morning and concluding with our AGM. In summer, from April to September, there are four Saturday outings, a weekend event and Wednesday Evening Walks fortnightly from April to August.

CFSS has run and participated in various events on David Allan and at Alloa Tower, is associated with the Forth Naturalist and Historian in publishing, and with the annual Man and the Landscape symposium, November 1998 being the 24th.

Research projects have included- Linn Mill site, Mining and Alloa Port 1743-85; these have been published as booklets Linn Mill and Mines and Minerals of the Ochils and a 1978 paper in the Forth Naturalist and Historian. A project in progress is a survey of the old Alloa graveyard. Other publications include David Allan, The – landscape, wildlife, heritage walks, Alloa Tower and the Erskines of Mar; and the twice yearly Newsletter. April 2006, Vol. 34 pt. II is no. 76, and there are 5 yearly contents/indices.

Membership is open to anyone with an interest in, or desire to support the aims of the society in this field of Local Studies.
