In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Carmyllie like this:
Carmylie, par. and vil., SE. Forfarshire, 6½ miles NW. of Arbroath, 7553 ac., pop. 1137; P.O., called Carmyllie; has extensive sandstone and pavement quarries, connected by the Carmylie Ry. with the Arbroath and Dundee branch of the Caledonian Ry. at Elliot Junction. The Rev. Patrick Bell (1800-1869), inventor of the reaping-machine, was minister from 1843.
Carmyllie is now part of ANGUS Council. Click here for graphs and data of how ANGUS has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Carmyllie itself, go to Statistics.
