River Teith
Moat, 2 km downstream of Doune
The Teith in Scotland flowing from northwest into the Forth near Drip north-west of Stirling.
Etymology
The name comes from the Gaelic Uisge Theavich ( " the beautiful river ").
Course
The river is formed from two burns ( Scottish for " flows" ): a hole Venachar from the Eas Gobhain ( " the smith cascade " ), and one from the hole Lubnaig - Garbh Uisge ( " the rough water"). The river flows through Callander, Deanston and Doune before upstream flows together with the smaller Forth from Stirling. The Deanston Distillery near Doune uses the Teith to water for the production of whiskey to win.
Importance
The Teith is known for its fishing and the arch bridge 800 m southwest of Doune.
The " Brig o ' Teith " was constructed in 1535 by Robert Spittal, the Royal Schneider of Mary Stuart. According to Charles Roger in A Week at Bridge of Allan in 1851, a ferryman refused the translation of Spittal on the Teith, than his wallet was not there and was insolvent.
