In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Firkin like this:
Farkin or Firkin, a small bay and a small headland in Arrochar parish, Dumbartonshire, on the W side of Loch Lomond, 1¾ mile NNW of Rowardennan Ferry.
Firkin is now part of ARGYLL AND BUTE Council. Click here for graphs and data of how ARGYLL AND BUTE has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Firkin itself, go to Statistics.
