Inchbuie ( Gaelic : Innis Buidhe "yellow island") is an island in the Dochart River , near Killin . A bridge connects the island with both river banks, just below the Falls of Dochart .

The MacNab clan was once dominant here and has long been associated with Killin. His old burial place can be seen from the bridge. On the crown of the city wall there are two busts from the 18th century; The monuments inside include the late medieval portrait of a warrior in the West Highland style (one of only two known examples outside Argyll and the Hebrides ).
