Balquhidder history
Middle Ages
St Angus came to Balquhidder Glen in the 8th or 9th century and recognised what the Celts called a “thin place” where the boundary between Earth and Heaven was close. He knelt and blessed the glen at the spot where the house “Beannach Aonghais” now stands and built a stone oratory at Kirkton, where he spent the rest of his life.
Early modern era
Glen Buckie, now a quiet backwater on the south side of Balquhidder Glen, was the scene of one of the last acts of the 1745 Jacobite rising. Dr Archibald “Archie” Cameron of Locheil was captured in the glen and later hanged in London.
