Fishcross is a small village in Clackmannanshire in central Scotland, situated to the north of Sauchie at a crossroads just south of Tillicoultry.

A golf course and equestrian centre are located nearby and at Auchinbaird there is a fine example of a windmill built in the early 18th Century to drain a coal pit [ [http://www.gamg.org.uk/auchinbaird.htm Auchinbaird Windmill information] ] and later converted to serve as a dovecote.
