Kirriemuir
Kirriemuir, sometimes called Kirrie, is a burgh in Angus, Scotland. Its background gets to back to earliest recorded times, when it is believed to have actually been a significant clerical centre. Later it was understood witchcraft, as well as some older houses still feature a "witches stane" to ward off evil. In the 19th century, it was an essential centre of the hemp profession. The dramatist J. M. Barrie was born and also buried below, and a statue of Peter Pan stands in the town square. Though its value as a market town has actually lessened, its previous hemp factories (currently manufacturing synthetics) resemble its relevance in the 19th century as the centre of a home-based weaving market. Historical features near Kirriemuir consist of a carved Pictish rock referred to as the Eassie Stone, discovered in the bed of a shed near the town of Eassie. Kirriemuir declares the narrowest public footpath in Western Europe; Cat's Close, located in between Grant's Pend as well as Kirkwynd. It is a simple 40 centimetres (15.75 inches) vast. The family members estate of Sir Hugh Munro, that produced Munro's Tables of Scottish mountains over 3,000 feet in elevation (which are now called "munros"), is also located near the community, as is Kinnordy House, the seat of the Lyells.
