The Devon rises in the Ochil Hills, and takes a rugged course to join the River Forth at Alloa. The Falls of Devon, near Crook of Devon, form a famous beauty spot. It was a result of Burns's visit to Harvieston, Clackmannanshire, near the Devon, in 1787, that he wrote the song 'The Banks of Devon', inspired by Charlotte Hamilton (See Hamilton, Charlotte), who Also inspired his last song of all, 'Fairest Maid on Devon Banks' written a few days before his death.
