Kindrochat beed ha n examine Professoy b d r Child tha1930.n w ei t No opportunit3 y offered, it seemed desirable to excavate at Clach na Tiompan with a view to comparing its" lay-out with that at Kindrochat and establishing its structural affinities wit e manhth y variation f grouno s d plan withie th n Clyde—Carlingford group. Also it was hoped to augment the sparse series of grave goods which this grou chamberef po d cairn produceds sha thin I .s we were disappointed, as there were no relics.

  • Highland Perthshire Through the Archive
    A Guide to the History and Culture of Highland Perthshire through the Archive Dick Fotheringham, bell ringer in the Aberfeldy area, c1930s Ref: MS316/31 Perth & Kinross Council Archive 1 Foreword While I have been a member of the Friends of Perth & Kinross Council Archive for some time I only became a Committee member last year. Thus my being asked to become the chair of the Committee at this year’s AGM was, from my perspective, rather rapid promotion! Now I have been given the great honour of writing this foreword to the Friends’ latest publication, a survey and guide to sources of information on every aspect of life in Highland Perthshire as encapsulated in the collections of the Archive. In it you will find a comprehensive overview of the huge range of collections relevant to this topic including history, genealogy, industry, settlements, estates and anything else you may be interested in. Some of the material is “official”, like local authority documents, police and Justice of the Peace records. However, there is also guidance on exploring community-based collections put together by local people who were determined their “story” would live on and be accessible to anyone who was interested. There are also many illustrations of documents of different types with informative notes beside each one. These are, of course, merely a glimpse of the rich and varied sources which exist and can be explored with the help of the staff of the Archive. A feature which we hope will be seen as innovative, and was the brainchild of the authors, is a specimen analysis of a document which is designed to show you what you can learn from it whether you are a family, house or local historian, or just interested in maximising the information that a document can provide.

In order to make the task less onerous it has been decided to create the additional position of Assistant Publications Secretary, this will allow the task of preparing the individual returns from the groups to be split on a roughly north-south basis. The new team are very aware of the huge amount of work that Mike has done over the years and have benefited by the detailed preparation notes and guidance that he was able to pass on to the team. There have been concerns over the imposed brevity of the walk descriptions following the need to minimise postage costs and although there is still a need to be careful with expenditure, it is now considered that we can return to more complete descriptions, .............................................
