  • Foreword the Cateran Trail Offers a Great Wilderness Experience to Anybody Who Is Willing to Walk
    Foreword The Cateran Trail offers a great wilderness experience to anybody who is willing to walk. The Trail is under two hours from Scotland’s busy capital, but it has mountains, lochs and big skies, with three wonderful valleys to explore: Strathardle, Glen Shee and Glen Isla. It’s one of Scotland’s Great Trails, and its outstanding scenery and wildlife are made accessible by excellent waymarking. The area is blessed with historic hotels, welcoming B&Bs and fine local produce, and you are never more than seven miles from the nearest village. I grew up near Glen Shee and the mountains of Perthshire were my playground. This countryside formed me as a young explorer, and although I’ve since enjoyed adventurous travel in many continents, I always enjoy returning to Perthshire. I live very close to the Trail, and have walked it often. I completed 54 miles of the Cateran Yomp (see page 71) and in 2015 I was delighted to act as its Ambassador. More recently, my young sons have enjoyed sections of the Trail. In this edition, the publisher has given the Trail the splendid guidebook that it deserves. Mike Bell’s superb photographs let me discover afresh the scenery, moods and dramatic lighting of the Trail. The Footprint mapping is clear and convenient to use. And the text is concise and comprehensive, with lots of local detail. The Cateran Trail is waiting for you. Why not seize the moment? Polly Murray www.pollymurray.com 4 Planning to walk the Trail Spittal of Glenshee The Cateran Trail is a fully waymarked 5.9 mi walk of 64 miles (104 km) that starts 9.5 km and finishes in the Highland town 8.5 mi .

  • Local Action Plan Eastern Perthshire
    APPENDIX 1A Local Action Plan Eastern Perthshire About Eastern Perthshire Eastern Perthshire is primarily a rural area with one major town, Blairgowrie (8,954 people in 2011), and settlements such as Alyth (2,403), Coupar Angus (2,262), Invergowrie (1,793), Scone (4,886), Burrelton (671) and Errol (1,311). The locality starts in the Carse of Gowrie in the south with the A90 connecting Perth and Dundee. The locality takes in Scone, which sits on the edge of Perth City and follows the course of the River Isla, and Ericht stretching through the Glens north of Blairgowrie. Eastern Perthshire has a geographical area of approximately 468km 2 and a population of around 37,500 1. The soft fruit industry and agriculture still prosper today and account for nearly 7% of the area’s industry. The agricultural nature of Eastern Perthshire has meant that it has always had a transient population, particularly in the summer months. The locality has fewer 0-19 year olds and more people aged 65 and over compared to other localities within Perth & Kinross, which will put a greater demand on social care services in future years, and an increased demand for social groups aimed at retired people within the locality. 1 Population Mid-Year Estimates 2015 ( www.statistics.gov.scot ) About our Plan Action Partnerships Perth and Kinross has five Action Partnerships, each representing one of the area’s localities. Each Action Partnership is made up of representatives from public services, the local community, and councillors from the area. Their purpose is to tackle local inequalities by setting priorities to work for and with the community.

    Stage Four: Kirkton of Glen Isla to Alyth Place Names of the Cateran Trail Dr Peter McNiven Kirkton of Glen Isla to Alyth PLACE NAMES OF THE CATARAN TRAIL DR PETER MCNIVEN CONTENTS Section 1: Introduction ....................... page 1 Language ........................... page 3 Cateran .............................. page 4 People ................................ page 6 Places ................................ page 6 Landscapes ....................... page 7 Section 2: Place Name Index ............ page 9 Bibliography ...................... page 23 COVER: Looking up toward Glenshee, photo Clare Cooper Cateran Trail Map, courtesy of Perth & Kinross Countryside Trust Kirkton of Glen Isla to Alyth FOREWARD The Cateran Trail is one of Scotland’s great long-distance footpaths. Fully waymarked, its circular 64-mile (103-km) route through Eastern Perthshire and the Angus Glens follows old drove roads and ancient tracks across a varied terrain of farmland, forests and moors. Some of the routes follow those used by the Caterans, the name given to the Highland cattle raiders who were the scourge of Strathardle, Glenshee and Glen Isla from the Middle Ages to the 17th century, and after whom the trail is named. This booklet is the fourth in a series detailing new research on the place names of the Cateran Trail. Each follows one of its five stages and begins with an introductory essay followed by a place name index. There is also one for the shorter ‘mini’ Trail. The research was commissioned by Cateran’s Common Wealth, a locally-led initiative which is using the Cateran Trail as a stage for a multi-year programme of diverse arts, cultural and heritage activities and events aimed at inspiring people to think about and celebrate our ‘common wealth’, the things that belong to all of us.

  • Scottish Medieval Parish Churches: the Evidence from the Dioceses of Dunblane and Dunkeld
    The Antiquaries Journal, 90, 2010,pp261–98 r The Society of Antiquaries of London, 2010 doi:10.1017⁄s0003581509990436.

E-mail: [email protected] Julian Luxford, FSA, School of Art History, University of St Andrews, 79 North Street, St Andrews KY16 9AL, UK. E-mail: [email protected] The great majority of Scottish parish churches owe their present appearance to reconstructions carried out from the later eighteenth or nineteenth centuries. It was the view of the authors of this paper, however, that in many cases those reconstructions had been relatively superficial, and that medieval work might have survived under what could, in some cases, be little more than a modern veneer. To test this view, a survey was carried out of all medieval parish sites within the dioceses of Dunblane and Dunkeld. The findings from that survey are summarized in this paper. The loss of medieval parish churches in Scotland has been so great that there is a widely held view that too few survive for a detailed understanding of pre-Reformation parochial architecture to be reached. In a paper published in 1939, for example, it could be

Perth & Kinross Council continues to work in partnership with a number of agencies including Scottish Water, the Scottish Environment Protection Agency and the Scottish Flood Forum to assist with the recovery. The Council and its partnership agencies are committed to providing on-going support to those who need it as the recovery work continues. Further bulletins will follow.

The entire Perth and Kinross Council area suffered extensive rainfall, thunder and lightning for 6 hours from around 11pm on 11 August. This severe weather resulted in widespread flooding. The flooding affected properties in some parts of Perth as well as Alyth, Kinross, Dunning, Pitlochry and other areas, although full details continue to emerge. The Met Office has confirmed that the majority of the rain came between midnight and 3am, with 42.2mm falling between 1-2am in Perth.

  • Welcome to Blairgowrie & Rattray
    Welcome to Blairgowrie & Rattray Blairgowrie & Rattray is a twin burgh in Perth & Kinross, united by an Act of Parliament in 1928. Situated on the banks of the River Ericht, it is a gateway to a network of walking trails and the official start of the famous Cateran Trail, a 64 mile circular walk through stunning scenery. Blairgowrie & Rattray has also been designated as the start of the Snow Road, which follows the A93 to Glenshee, across the Devils Elbow and finishes in Grantown-on-Spey. In the 19th century there were many textile mills built along the River Ericht and the disused mill buildings can be seen from the riverside walk. Soft fruit growing developed in the 20th century and became an important part of the town’s economy with a canning and jam factory situated in the town. Soft fruit growing still plays a large part in the area, but a wider range of fruit such as cherries, blueberries and blackberries are now also grown. The extensive use of polytunnels has extended the growing season. Major employers in the area are Castle Water, Tayside Contracts and Davidson’s Chemist headquarters. Blairgowrie has a thriving town centre, with a wide range of independent shops together with major retailers such as Tesco and Sainsbury. Today the Blairgowrie & Rattray area offers unrivalled facilities for walkers, anglers and golfers as well as winter sports enthusiasts. Introduction Formed in 1978, making 2019 our 41st year, Blair in Bloom was the first ‘Bloom’ group in Perth & Kinross. Our dedicated committee of 7, together with our hard working volunteer group turn out in all weathers to plant, weed, prune and litter pick etc to ensure the town looks good for residents and visitors alike.
