Alloa Inch
{{Use dmy dates|date=September 2019}}
Inch or Alloa Inch ({{langx|gd|innis}}, island) is an island in the tidal reaches of the River Forth near Alloa, just before the river opens out into the Firth of Forth.
There is a derelict farmhouse on the island, as the land was farmed in the past. Due to subsidence caused by nearby coal mining, flood defences were breached. The land now consists of reed beds and salt marshes.{{cite web| url=http://www.scottish-places.info/features/featurefirst18078.html | title=Alloa Inch| publisher=Gazetteer for Scotland| accessdate=2009-08-09}}
The Scottish Wildlife Trust has managed the island as a reserve since 1996.[http://www.swt.org.uk/ Scottish Wildlife Trust] The smaller islet of Tullibody Inch lies just upstream.
