———NEISH ISLANDOld Statistical Account in 1792, selected Neilston as one<strong>of</strong> three parishes to show to the French Chamber <strong>of</strong>Commerce the status which manufactures had reachedin the best rural districts <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>. The manufacturingprosperity so soon attained in Neilston has beencontinued till the present day, receiving stimulus fromthe formation <strong>of</strong> the Glasgow, Barrhead, and Kilmarnockrailway, and keeping up a rivalry, proportionably to itspopulation, with the prosperity <strong>of</strong> Paisley and Glasgow.The lands <strong>of</strong> Neilston, Crookston, Darnley, and othersin Eenfrewshire belonged in the 12th century to thefamily <strong>of</strong> Croc, from whom they passed in the succeedingcentury to a branch <strong>of</strong> the illustrious house <strong>of</strong> Stewartby marriage with the heiress, Marion Croc. This branchbecame Earls and Dukes <strong>of</strong> Lennox ; and one <strong>of</strong> itsmembers was Henry Lord Darnley, husband <strong>of</strong> QueenMary, and father <strong>of</strong> James VI. <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>. In process<strong>of</strong> time the estate <strong>of</strong> Neilston passed from them, and wasdivided amongst a number <strong>of</strong> proprietors. In the NewStatistical Account, Orawfurd is represented as saying, inhis History <strong>of</strong> Eenfrewshire, that, passing from the'house <strong>of</strong> Stewart, the lordship <strong>of</strong> Neilston came bymarriage into that <strong>of</strong> Cunningham <strong>of</strong> Craigends ; ' whereasCrawfurd makes that statement with regard merely toa portion called Arthurleb, which had belonged to abranch <strong>of</strong> the Darnley family, and which now belongsto various proprietors. The transmission <strong>of</strong> the estatessince Crawfurd's time is given by his continuator,Eobertsou. None <strong>of</strong> the castles <strong>of</strong> the ancient proprietorsremain ; but mansions belonging to some <strong>of</strong> thepresent landowners, as well as villas belonging to othergentlemen, are numerous and elegant. Seventeen proprietorshold each an annual value <strong>of</strong> £500 and upwards,33 <strong>of</strong> between £100 and £500, 66 <strong>of</strong> from £60 to £100,and 115 <strong>of</strong> from £20 to £50. Giving <strong>of</strong>f the quoad sacraparish <strong>of</strong> Barrhead, Neilston is in the presbytery <strong>of</strong>Paisley and the synod <strong>of</strong> Glasgow and Ayr ; the livingis worth £470. The Kev. Alexander Fleming, D.D.(1770-1845), a leading sjiirit <strong>of</strong> the Church ExtensionScheme, was minister from 1804 ; and his Life (1883)contains much <strong>of</strong> interest relating to Neilston. Eightschools, with total accommodation for 2073 children,had (1883) an average attendance <strong>of</strong> 1597, and grantsamounting to £1318, 3s. Id. Valuation (1860) £33,893,(1884) £63,672, lis.

In the early part <strong>of</strong> the17th century the small remnant <strong>of</strong> the clan Neish, thathad survived the battle <strong>of</strong> Gleneoltachan, subsistedon this isle by plundering, till, one winter night, theywere surprised and slain—all save one man and a boyby their ancient foes, the Macnabs.— Ord. Sur. , sh. 47,1869.Neldricken, Loch, an isleted lake (5J x 2i furl. ; 1175feet) in the NE <strong>of</strong> Minnigaff parish, Kirkcudbrightshire,16J miles NNE <strong>of</strong> Newton-Stewart. It lies among wilduplands ; is almost cut in two by a peninsula ; containsboth pike and 2 lb. trout ; and sends <strong>of</strong>f a stream IJfurlong south-south-westward to Loch Valley (8 x 1^furl. ; 1070 feet), out <strong>of</strong> which Gairland Burn goes 1 jmile south-westward to Loch Tp.ool.— Ord.

Lying48 feet above sea-level, it extends Ig mile south-westward; has a varying width <strong>of</strong> 1^ and 3 furlongs ; cont.iinsgood trout ; at its head receives the LoNANrivulet ; and from its foot sends <strong>of</strong>f the Nell, 2 milessouth-south-westward to the head <strong>of</strong> salt-water LochFeachan. See Kilmore and Kilbride.— Ord.

It liesamong beautiful braes, straggling along them for a con-100NESSsiderable distance ; covers the site <strong>of</strong> an ancient chapel,<strong>of</strong> the Knights Templars; and has a public school.Ord. Sur., sh. 23, 1865.Nenthom, a parish <strong>of</strong> SW Berwickshire, whose churchstands 4 miles NW <strong>of</strong> the post-town, Kelso. "With anirregular outline, rudely resembling an hour-glass, it isbounded W by Earlston, N by Hume, and on allothersides by Roxburghshire, viz., NE by Stitchel, SE byKelso, and S by Kelso and Smailholm. Its utmostlength, from WNW to ESE, is 4J miles ; its breadthvaries between 2^ furlongs and 2| miles ; and its area is3478J acres, <strong>of</strong> which 24J are water. Eden Waterwinds 2§ miles south-south-westward along all th&Earlston boundary, then 5J miles east-by-southwardfor 3 furlongs, near Burnbrae, across the neck <strong>of</strong> thehour-glass, and elsewhere along or near to the SmaUholmand Stitchel boundaries. It thus has a totalcourse here <strong>of</strong> SJ miles, though the point where it firsttouches and that where it quits the parish are but 4§miles distant as the crow flies. At Mellerstain itbroadens to a lake ; and near Newton-Don forms a finewaterfall, 40 feet high, Stitchel Linn. In the extremeE the surface declines to 165 feet above sea-level ; andthence it rises with gentle undulations, till it reaches amaximum height <strong>of</strong> 665 feet at Blinkbonny. Traprocks, incumbent on coarse red sandstone, include somebasaltic columns, like Samson's Ribs at Edinburgh ;and marl, both shell and clay, has been found in considerablequantity. The soil at the W end is improvedvegetable mould on cold till ; and everywhere else is arich and fertile clayey loam. Upwards <strong>of</strong> 300 acres ar&under wood ; and all the rest <strong>of</strong> the area is enclosed andcultivated. The parish appears to have been establishedduring the 13th century, and was formed <strong>of</strong> the manors<strong>of</strong> Naithansthirn and Newton, lying respectively W andE <strong>of</strong> the line where the Eden passes from the southernto the northern boundary. The chapel <strong>of</strong> Naithansthirnbecame the parish church, whilst that <strong>of</strong> Newton continueda chapel. Both, previous to the parochial erection,were subordinate to the church <strong>of</strong> Ednam ; andboth were given in 1316-17 by the Bishop <strong>of</strong> StAndrews to the Abbot <strong>of</strong> Kelso, in exchange for thechurch <strong>of</strong> Cranston in Midlothian. The manors belongedin the 12th century to the Morvilles, the hereditaryconstables <strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>, and followed the fortunes <strong>of</strong>their other possessions till the downfall and forfeituro<strong>of</strong> John Baliol. Nenthorn House, near the left bank<strong>of</strong> the Eden, 4^ miles NW <strong>of</strong> Kelso, is the seat <strong>of</strong>Frederick Lewis Roy, Esq. (b. 1836 ; sue. 1868), whoholds 1826 acres in Berwick and Roxburgh shires, valuedat £3035 per annum. Newton-Don, near the Eden'sright bank, 3 miles NNW <strong>of</strong> Kelso, is a fine mansion <strong>of</strong>1816, with grounds <strong>of</strong> singular loveliness, and a wide andbeautiful view. It was originally the property <strong>of</strong> theDons, who held a baronetcy from 1667 till 1862, and arenow represented by Sir John Don-Wauchope, Bart, <strong>of</strong>Edmonstone ; but in 1847 it was purchased for £80,000by the late Charles Balfour, Esq. <strong>of</strong> Balgonie, whoseson, Charles Barrington Balfour, Esq. (b. 1862 ; sue.1872), owns 907 acres in Berwickshire, 318 in Roxburghshire,and 2500 in Fife, valued at £5500 per annum.Lesser proprietors are the Duke <strong>of</strong> Roxburghe and theEarl <strong>of</strong> Haddington. Nenthorn is in the presbytery<strong>of</strong> Kelso and the synod <strong>of</strong> Merse and Teviotdale ; theliving is worth £246. The parish church, built in1802, contains 200 sittings. A Free church, datingfrom Disruption times, contains 300 sittings ;and apublic school, with accommodation for 106 children,had (1883) an average attendance <strong>of</strong> 53, and a grant<strong>of</strong> £49, 15s. 6d.

As noticed below, itissues from the NE end <strong>of</strong> Loch Dochfour over a weir,constructed to keep the water <strong>of</strong> the loch at a properheight for the Caledonian Canal, and has from this acourse <strong>of</strong> about 7 miles, nearly parallel to the line <strong>of</strong>the Canal, till it reaches the Moray Firth below Inverness.The channel has a regular inclination over agravelly bottom, and the stream is about 180 feet wide,with a mean depth in summer <strong>of</strong> about 3 feet, and inwinter <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>ten double that amount. The lower part <strong>of</strong>its course is noticed in the article on Inverness. It isan excellent salmon river, and the fishing season lastsfrom 10 Feb. to 15 Oct.Ness or Cross. See Barvas.Ness or Whiting Ness, a small precipitous headland(98 feet), pierced with a great cavern, in St Vigeansparish, Forfarshire, 1 mile ENE <strong>of</strong> Arbroath. Thecavern was laid open by the removal <strong>of</strong> some rocks inthe course <strong>of</strong> quarrying stones for the harbour <strong>of</strong>Arbroath ; and it comprises two compartments, an outerand an inner. The outer compartment measures 300feet in length, 16 in extreme width, and from 6 to 30 inheight ; and, over its ro<strong>of</strong> and its sides, makes a splendiddisplay <strong>of</strong> stalactites. The inner compartment liesdirectly beyond the outer one ; is neither so high nor sowide ; and measures only 100 feet in length. Ord. Sur.,sh. 49, 1865.Ness Castle. See Ness.Ness Glen, a ravine in Dalmellington parish, Ayrshire,traversed by the river Doon from Loch Doon tonear Dalmellington town. It is one <strong>of</strong> the finestexamples in Britain <strong>of</strong> a true rock gorge, the streamhaving worn down a channel little more than its ownwidth, with perpendicular sides, into the rock to adepth <strong>of</strong> from 100 to 200 feet. The heights along thesides are beautifully wooded, and a walk formed alongsidethe river leads tlirough the hollow.Ness, Loch, a large lake in Inverness-shire, occupyinga considerable portion <strong>of</strong> the bottom <strong>of</strong> the Great Glen<strong>of</strong> <strong>Scotland</strong>, 6^ miles SW <strong>of</strong> Inverness. It is a longnarrow sheet <strong>of</strong> water extending from NE to SW, witha length <strong>of</strong> 22J miles, from Bona Ferry on the NE tonear Fort Augustus on the SW, and an average breadth<strong>of</strong> about 1 mile, while the surface is 50 feet above sealevel.The bottom slopes very rapidly, and reaches adepth <strong>of</strong> 40 to 60 fathoms at no great distance from theshore, while the depth in the centre is from 106 to 130fathoms. The sides are very straight and even, that tothe SE being broken only by the mouths <strong>of</strong> the inflowingstreams ;while that to the NW has, 6 miles from theNE end <strong>of</strong> the loch, Urquhart Bay, measuring 1 mileacross the mouth, and -i mile deep at the mouths <strong>of</strong>the Enrick and Coiltie, and, lOJ miles farther to the SW,Invermoriston Bay, at the mouth <strong>of</strong> the river Moriston.Both sides are formed by l<strong>of</strong>ty heights, which, on theSE, have an average height <strong>of</strong> 800 to 1000 feet, and onthe NW <strong>of</strong> from 1200 to 1500 feet, while at many pointsboth rise higher. The principal heights along the formerside,beginning at the N end, are Tom Bailgeann(1514 feet), Carn an Fheadain (1445), both oppositeUrquhart Bay; Meall an Targaid (1016), oppositeInvermoriston Bay ; Beinn a' Bhacaidh (1812), BorlumHill (1000), and Creag Ardochy (1417). On the NWside, beginning at the N end, the principal heights areCarn a Bhodaich (1642 feet), Carn an Leitire (1424),Meall na h-Eilach (1525), Sron Dubh (1436), MeallFuar-mhonaidh (Mealfourvounie, 2284), and Burach, S<strong>of</strong> the river Moriston (1986). The loch receives thedrainage <strong>of</strong> an area <strong>of</strong> 670 square miles, the principalstreams that flow into it being the Oich and Tarff, oneither side <strong>of</strong> Fort Augustus at the SW end ; theMoriston, Coiltie, Enrick, and a number <strong>of</strong> smaller burns,all on the NW side ; and the Doe, Foyers, and Farigaig,with a number <strong>of</strong> smaller burns, all on the SE side. At80NESTINGthe lower end it communicates by the narrow strait atBona Ferry with Loch Dochfour, which is in realityonly a continuation <strong>of</strong> it, and from which the surpluswater is carried <strong>of</strong>f by the river Ness. The CaledonianCanal, which links it at the SW end with Loch Oich,and at the NE end with the sea, is separately noticed.At the SW end the loch is in the parish <strong>of</strong> Boleskineand Abertarff', and the south-eastern half the rest <strong>of</strong> theway is in the parishes <strong>of</strong> Dores and Daviot, and thenorth-western half in Urquhart and Glenmoriston andInverness, all those meeting along the centre line.There is an excellent road—originally military roadaformed by the soldiers imder the command <strong>of</strong> GeneralWade—along each bank. At the NE end there is aferry at Bona, and another 12 miles farther to the SWfrom Foyers to Ruskich Inn. From the great depththe waters never freeze. It is well known that there isa fault along the line <strong>of</strong> the Great Glen, and this seemsto mark a line <strong>of</strong> permanent weakness in the crust <strong>of</strong>the earth, for at the time <strong>of</strong> the great earthquake atLisbon, on 1 Nov. 1755, the waters <strong>of</strong> Loch Ness became violently agitated, a series <strong>of</strong> waves rolling alongthe loch towards the upper end, and dashing for 200yards up the course <strong>of</strong> the Oich, 5 feet above the usuallevel <strong>of</strong> that stream. The pulsation <strong>of</strong> the water lastedfor about an hour, and after a huge wave had beendashed against the NW bauk, the surface resumed itswonted calm.Except at a narrow part at the NE end <strong>of</strong> the loch,where, on the E, there is a fine belt <strong>of</strong> low ground aboutAldourie, the mountain ranges that flank the glenslope from 1000 feet steeply do^vn to the water's edge,giving the narrow valley an unnaturally contractedappearance, and greatly heightening the effect <strong>of</strong> itslength. Along considerable stretches these steep banksare finely wooded, and this, with the red colour <strong>of</strong>much <strong>of</strong> the rock, makes the scenery, whether fromthe water or from the banks, very beautiful.'Thepr<strong>of</strong>use admixture,' say the Messrs Anderson, withparticular reference to the tract between Glen Urquhartand Glen Moriston, '<strong>of</strong> oak with birch and alder, addsmuch to the richness and tone <strong>of</strong> colouring. Dark anddense masses <strong>of</strong> pine are frequently seen crowning thecraggy heights above, while beneath, the rowan andhawthorn trees mingle their snowy blossoms or coralberries with the foliage <strong>of</strong> the more gigantic natives <strong>of</strong>the forest. The road is overhung by the fantasticbranches <strong>of</strong> the j'ct youthful oak, while the stately ashrooted in the steep declivities below, shoots up its tall,straight, and perpendicular stem, and with its scatteredterminal foliage slightly screens the glassy lake orpurple ground-colour <strong>of</strong> the opposite hills ; and the airybirch droops its pensile twigs round its silvery trunk,"like the dishevelled tresses <strong>of</strong> some regal fair."Fringing rows <strong>of</strong> hazel bushes line the road ; and inautumn their clustering bunches <strong>of</strong> nuts invite thereaching arm.' Of the opposite side, between Inverfarigaigand Dores, Dr Macculloch speaks in equallyhigh terms. 'It is,' he says, 'a green road <strong>of</strong> shaventurf holding its bowery course for miles through closegroves <strong>of</strong> birch and alder, with occasional glimpses <strong>of</strong>Loch Ness and <strong>of</strong> the open country. I passed it atearly dawn, when the branches were still spangled TOthdrops <strong>of</strong> dew ; while the sun, shooting its beams throughthe leaves, exhaled the sweet perfume <strong>of</strong> the birch, andfilled the whole air with fragrance.' The many points<strong>of</strong> interest and beautifully placed mansions around theshores come naturally under the different parishes, andwill be found noticed there. Except with the net, thefishing is poor, though the loch abounds in trout ; and,though salmon pass through on their way to the Oichand other rivers, yet they are never taken with the rod.—Ord.
