Kirriemuir
Kirriemuir, occasionally called Kirrie, is a burgh in Angus, Scotland. Its background gets to back to earliest recorded times, when it is thought to have been a significant ecclesiastical centre. Later it was identified with witchcraft, and some older homes still feature a "witches stane" to fend off evil. In the 19th century, it was an essential centre of the jute profession. The playwright J. M. Barrie was born as well as buried right here, and also a statue of Peter Pan stands in the community square. Though its value as a market community has reduced, its previous jute factories (now producing synthetics) echo its value in the 19th century as the centre of a home-based weaving sector. Historical attributes near Kirriemuir consist of a carved Pictish stone referred to as the Eassie Stone, found in the bed of a burn near the town of Eassie. Kirriemuir declares the narrowest public path in Western Europe; Cat's Close, positioned in between Grant's Pend and also Kirkwynd. It is a simple 40 centimetres (15.75 inches) wide. The family estate of Sir Hugh Munro, who produced Munro's Tables of Scottish mountains over 3,000 feet in altitude (which are currently called "munros"), is also situated near the community, as is Kinnordy House, the seat of the Lyells.
