    Community Profile Glenfarg Perth and Kinross Revised September 2013 1 Table of Contents Introduction 3 Population 5 Deprivation levels 6 Employment, Economy, Enterprise 6/7/8/9 Education & Learning 10/11/12 Health 13 Environment 14 Housing 15 Transport & Communications 15 Community Facilities 16/17 Representation 18 Conclusion 19 Appendices - Maps 2 1. INTRODUCTION The area covered by this Community profile has been determined by the area of benefit for the Lochelbank Windfarm Community Benefit Fund. It is defined by the boundary of the area represented by the community council of Glenfarg and lies within the Perth and Kinross Council area in Central Scotland. The area is delineated. GLENFARG The villages of Glenfarg and Duncrievie sit in the Ochill Hills 10 miles South of Perth City. Until 1890 the main settlement in the area was the hamlet of Damhead. In that year the North British Railway opened a line to Perth to coincide with the completion of the Forth Rail Bridge. Glenfarg Station was built to serve this upland area of the Parish of Arngask. The settlement that grew up around it became equally rapidly known as Glenfarg. Glenfarg thrived as a resort with up to four hotels at its peak. Some of the village's more prominent buildings reflect the wealth at that time including what used to be the Arngask Library, built in 1892, the Village Hall previously the village school and Arngask Parish Church built in 1906. The railway closed in 1964, part of its track then being used for the M90 motorway which now passes mere yards to the east of the edge of the village, but without any direct junction to the village.
