South Alloa

South Alloa is a small village which lies in the far north of the Falkirk council area of Scotland.

To the west of the village lies the island of Alloa Inch, and directly to the north across the Forth is the town of Alloa, located 0.8 miles (1.3 km) away.

Upstream and 5 miles (8.0 km) west-northwest is the city of Stirling and 7.3 miles (11.7 km) south is Falkirk, the principal town of the Falkirk council area.

The village lies off the A905 road between Dunmore and Throsk.

The village is at a former ferry crossing point across the River Forth to Alloa.
