  • 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.

The area crosses three local authority areas, two Scottish Enterprise regions, two Forestry Commission areas, two Rural Payments and Inspections Divisions, one National Park and one VisitScotland Region. An area criss-crossed with administrative boundaries, the geography crosses these boundaries, with the area stretching from the spectacular Highland mountain scenery around Crianlarich and Tyndrum, across the Highland boundary fault line, with its forests and lochs, down to the more rolling hills of the Ochils, Campsies and the Kilpatrick Hills until it meets the fringes of the urbanised central belt of Clydebank, Stirling and Alloa.

  • Cambusbarron (Site #31)
    Site #31 Cambusbarron The Original 2017 Full-Length Chapter OutlandishScotland.com A Novel Holiday Travel Guidebook Outlandish Scotland Journey Cambusbarron Original 2017 Chapter 2 Cambusbarron: Site #31 Once a Contender for the Fraser’s Ridge Outlander Season FOUR Film Site We wrote this chapter (and published its entirety in the 2017 edition of the Outlandish Scotland Journey Part Four eBook) back when Cambusbarron’s Gillies Hill was a strong contender for Fraser’s Ridge—a long-term film site that would feature in Outlander’s Season Four: Drums of Autumn. In January of 2018 we learned that the plan to film in Cambusbarron had officially been abandoned. “The Outlander production team earlier sought permission to build [the Fraser’s Ridge] set in woods outside Cambusbarron, near Stirling. “However, this plan is no longer going ahead.” https://www.scotsman.com/news/outlander-cast-and-crew-return-to-fife-village-1-4669949 It is unclear whether the Outlander production team withdrew their request, or whether the Cambusbarron Community Council denied them permission to film in the area. Basically, it doesn’t matter. Cambusbarron is NOT an Outlander Season Four film site. To avoid renumbering all subsequent chapters, we replaced the original, full-length Cambusbarron chapter with a starkly abbreviated version in Outlandish Scotland Journey Part Four. Having spent weeks researching and writing it, however, we hated the idea of simply discarding it. So, we didn’t! Beginning on the next page, you’ll find this chapter’s original, 2017 manuscript. Outlandish Scotland Journey Cambusbarron Original 2017 Chapter 3 Cambusbarron: Site #31 Outlander Season FOUR Film Site—Maybe! [Internet-posted pic, ©unknown segment (enhanced)] This chapter is published as a “work in progress” because nothing has been filmed here—as of this writing.
