Tour
Creich Parish
"Creich parish is about 3 miles in length and 2 in
breadth. Its surface is nearly level, and the soil sandy &
thin; but agriculture is making rapid improvements. On a little
eminence near the church are the vestiges of a Roman camp, and
at a short distance therefrom are the remains of a castle, which
formerly belonged to Cardinal Beaton. This parish was the birthplace
of the Rev John Sage, the first of the post-revolution bishops
in the Scottish episcopal communion, and the author of that very
remarkable production the 'Fundamental Charter of Presbytery'."
from Slater's Directory published 1852.
