Drummonderinoch is a place in Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland. Its modern name is Drummond Earnoch.[1] The origin of the name comes from the tragic episode of the Massacre of Monzievaird on October 21, 1490.
One of its sons, John Drummond, came to a grisly end in Lochearnhead; his severed head inspired Sir Walter Scott’s tale, "A Legend of Montrose".
