Colinsburgh is named after Colin Lindsay, 3rd Earl of Balcarres, born 1652, died 1722, who gave the land on which it was built. It was here that the first meeting of the Presbytery of Relief was held in 1761 after its founders had broken from the Church of Scotland. Balcarres House just north of the village, is based on a mansion built in 1595 by John Lindsay, second son of the ninth Earl of Crawford. The house became the family seat of the Earl of Crawford.
