Hill of Row

The Hill of Row (Scottish Gaelic: Cnoc Nan Rhu; Scots: Hill o Rou) is the high ground south east of Doune in Stirlingshire.

[1] The word Row, pronounced Roo comes from the Scottish Gaelic word Rudha, meaning point and refers to the ground on which the house of Row stands, above the River Teith.

[4] This was originally the property of the Row-Fogo family, with a record dated 1480 of a Patrick Fogo at Row.

[1] The house is privately owned but opens its gardens to the public on weekends throughout July.

Since 2002 a statue of David Stirling has stood on a rock on the Hill of Row, near his ancestral home, looking towards the Perthshire mountains.
