The Ochil Hills rise to over 2,000 feet, taking them well above the freezing level on most days throughout the winter.

All the land in this photograph lies within Tillicoultry parish. The Alva parish boundary is off the left edge of this photgraph

Wrong description. This photograph in fact shows the Ochil Hills above Tillicoultry. The snow capped peak on the left is the Law Hill and the one behind is Andrew Gannel Hill. Both are over 2000 feet high. The lower hill on the right is the Wester Kirk Craig. The tree covered slopes just right of centre mark what is now the great gash in the hillside that was Tillicoultry Quarry. All the trees in the foreground have gone.
