the county-town of Kinrosshire in Scotland, situated in W. Long. 3. 7. N. Lat. 56. 15. on the west side of Lochleven, a fresh-water lake about 10 miles in compass, abounding with pike, trout, perch, and water-fowl. The manufactures are linen and some cutlery ware. The house of Kinros, an elegant ancient structure, stands on the north side of the town. Kinros sends a member to parliament by turns with Clackmannan. In the lake are two islands; on one of which appear the ruins of a priory, heretofore possessed by the Culdees; the other is famous for the cattle in which Queen Mary was imprisoned by her rebellious subjects.
