Kirriemuir, Angus, Scotland, United Kingdom

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Kirriemuir, sometimes called Kirrie or the Wee Red Toon (An Ceathramh Mòr), is a burgh in Angus, Scotland. It reaches back to earliest recorded times, when it is thought to have been a major ecclesiastical centre. Later it was identified with witchcraft: some older houses still feature a "witches stane" to ward off evil. In the 19th century, it was a major centre of the jute trade. The playwright J. M. Barrie was born and buried here – a statue of Peter Pan stands in the town square.
