Temple village was the main Knights Templar site in Scotland. The Old Temple Kirk, may stand on the site of a previous Templar church, having been built by the Knights of St. John after the dissolution of the Templars.
This may be the site of the real 'Rosslyn' and the Templar treasure for local legend claims that the treasure was moved from Paris to here in Scotland between the 'oak and elm tree'. French legends also suggest the treasure was taken to Scotland in the vicinity of the Firth of Forth.

On the north coast of County Antrim can be found around 40,000 interlocking hexagonal basalt columns, said to have been made into a causeway by the Irish giant Finn MacCool so that he could fight the Scottish giant Benandonner.
The other end of the causeway is located on the Scottish Isle of Staffa, at Fingal's Cave, with its identical basalt columns. The geological feature can also be put down to the cooling of volcanic activity in the area 50 - 60 million years ago. |
