Dalrigh is a hamlet in the parish of Killin in Perthshire. It is located on the A82 between Tyndrum and Crianlarich. The name means "The King's Field" in Scottish Gaelic.
The origin of the name stems specifically from the Battle of Dalrigh which was fought there in 1306, when King Robert I (Bruce) was defeated by the Clan MacDougall of Lorn.
