037 | A pretty large stream or River having its source in Forfar Loch And flowing in a westerly direction to it meets the Isla water and thence into the River Tay "This stream forms the northern boundary of the parish, and as its name is said to import, is of considerable depth, and has scarcely a perceptible current. On the south side, it is strongly embanked; but, owing to the frequent bends in its course, it often, in winter, breaks through the embankment and inundates the neighbouring fields".

Ordnance Survey - Angus county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Angus, which is in the east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
