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.

The warrior Tutenakai lived on the tiny island and played music each night on his pipes with his friend Tiki. The music floated on the air across the lake and on its banks noble-born Hinemoa heard the notes the warrior played. Tutenakai visited Hinemoa's village and met her and they fell in love, but he had to return to his village on the island. He promise Hinemoa that he would play the music each night, so that she could follow the music and swim across the lake to the island to join him. Hinemoa heard the music and had selected six dry gourds to use as floats so that she could swim across the lake. She followed the music and made it to the island, gaining refreshment at the hot spring on the island, Waikimihia. By chance Tutenakai had sent his servant to collect water, and he reported back that there was a young woman by the spring. Tutenakai rushed down to greet Hinemoa, and they lived happily ever after.
