Lodge St. James No 171 Erected in 1816 as a meeting place for the Deanston Friendly Society, the Doune Society of Apronmen and the Freemasons of Doune. The first Master of Lodge St. James 171 (founded 1789) was Dr. James McGill, a stage doctor who sold patent remedies at local fairs. It is said that during a Doune Fair he walked a tightrope between two chimney stacks over the Mercat Cross.
