  • 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.

  • Perth and Kinross Council 17/185 Development Management Committee – 24 May 2017 Report of Handling by Interim Head of Planning
    5(2)(i) Perth and Kinross Council 17/185 Development Management Committee – 24 May 2017 Report of Handling by Interim Head of Planning Mixed use (residential and employment) development at Perth Airport, Scone. Ref. No: 16/01935/IPM Ward No: N2 - Strathmore Summary This report recommends approval of the in principle application to formally establish the principal of a mixed use (residential and employment) development at land immediately adjacent to Perth Airport, Scone. The development is considered to primarily comply with the current Development Plan but, subject to a condition restricting the residential element until after the proposed Cross Tay Link Road is a committed project. BACKGROUND AND PROPOSAL 1 The site extends to over 5.2 Ha and is located on the eastern boundary of Perth Airport some 3.5 miles north east of Perth and half-way between the settlements of Scone and Balbeggie. The site itself is fairly flat agricultural land with a few trees and hedgerows. The northern boundary is defined by the runway associated with the airport. Immediately west of the site are dwellings, buildings and businesses contained within the boundary of Perth Airport. To the east, the site is bounded by agricultural land. The site fronts onto the A94 and beyond this to the south is agricultural land. Vehicular access to the site is currently taken off the A94 and an adopted core path passes along the southern side along the boundary of the site. 2 The entire application site is located within the identified boundary of Perth Airport and is allocated (MU3) in the Perth and Kinross Local Development Plan 2014 (LDP) for mixed use development (residential and employment).

It is our Hope that all the Church doors will be open for worship on Easter Day!! Do please prepare to book in. It is our intention to offer 4 services as follows: 9.30 am St Martins; 10.45 am and 12 noon Scone New, Balformo Road, and an extra service at 6.30 pm at Scone Old. This will allow all doors of our sanctuaries to be open on the Day of Resurrection! Easter is the High Point of the Christian Year! It is good that the Government is recognising the Churches at the commencement of opening up from Lockdown, it makes much more sense than opening the pubs in the first instance, not that any of us has any objection to them opening and wish them well for their reopening, but no space is safer than our worship spaces.

  • Scotland's Berry Trail 2015
    From the traditional sweetness of strawberries and raspberries to the more tart blackcurrants and redcurrants, Scotland’s berry growers have a reputation for producing the tastiest seasonal fruits around. From Scotland’s most northerly blueberries in Aberdeenshire to new ‘superfood’ aronia in Angus, these seasonal berries provide an array of health benefits, as well as being a delicious addition to any meal. In the Year of Food and Drink 2015, let’s celebrate and promote Scotland’s natural larder. So, whether you want to buy your berries direct from the farmer, pick your own, or sit down and have a cup of tea with a fresh punnet, Scotland’s Berry Trail will point you in the right direction. The Home of Soft Fruit For well over 100 years Scotland has been famous for its soft fruit production, particularly of strawberries and raspberries but also blueberries, blackberries, gooseberries, cherries, elderberries, blackcurrants, whitecurrants and redcurrants.
