In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Crook of Devon like this:

Crook of Devon, a small old village in the Kinrossshire section of Fossoway parish, on the left bank of the Devon, at its sharp westward bend or crook, with a station on the Devon Valley section of the North British, 1½ mile ENE of Rumbling-Bridge, and 6 miles WSW of Kinross. It is a burgh of barony.
