NARRATIVE
ON PRINT - Westhaven is the eastern limit
of the modern and thriving village of Carnoustie.
Carnoustie was founded toward the close of
last century by a person of the name of Thomas
Lowson, who survived till 1856. It was he
who built the first house of a village which
at the census of 1881 had a population of
3348.
Carnoustie, which possesses some manufacturers,
is a good deal resorted to in the summer months
as a watering-place. The eastern part of the
village is in the parish of Panbride ; the
larger part, erected a few years ago into
a parish 'quoad sacra', is in Barry, which
is the most westerly parish in the Presbytery
of Arbroath.
