Mr Cairncross was well-known in Perth and much further afield as a partner, with his late brother Alistair, in the long-established firm of A&G Cairncross, jewellers. His connection with the Council Archive goes back to the old days in the Sandeman Library when he kindly deposited records relating to his father’s trust. Along with good friend Archie Martin, and sister-in-law Mary Cairncross he was quick to support the setting up of the Friends of Perth & Kinross Council Archive. We were also pleased recently to receive a generous contribution from his own charitable trust towards the cost of equipment for our volunteers. It is apparent from the appreciations of his life that have appeared in the local press and the warm tributes at his funeral that Mr Cairncross will be deeply missed by his many friends and also by various organisations within Perth. On behalf of the Friends, we would like to pass on our sympathy to his family. Steve Connelly, Archivist Welcome to our eighth Friends newsletter. It’s been a busy quarter for our members and volunteers. First, our visit to Kinross House was most interesting. Arriving at dusk, the sweep up the drive to the spotlighted house was quite breathtaking.

    Lilyvale, Duncrievie, Glenfarg, PH2 9PD 01738 443456 | WWW.THORNTONS-PROPERTY.CO.UK Lilyvale Occupying an enviable setting in this popular Perthshire village, this charming three-bedroom detached bungalow boasts spacious, south-facing living accommodation, a separate dining room, a large single garage, and a large private garden. With excellent local village amenities, and motorway links to the north and south, it offers a perfect home for those seeking a rural idyll in an accessible location. With an attractive approach, a path leads you through a manicured lawn to a front door, which opens to a handy vestibule and then a welcoming hall, off which are two useful store cupboards. To the left is the beautifully proportioned living room, with a southerly aspect over the front garden. Softly decorated in neutral tones, offering a blank palate for the new owner, and with a comfortable carpet, it has ample space for a choice of furniture centred on a large picture window. Also enjoying a southerly aspect is the adjoining dining room, which is connected by a wide archway to the kitchen, giving rise to a sociable flow of accommodation. Here, the neutral toned décor is offset by a practical wood-styled floor that continues into the spacious kitchen. The kitchen itself offers a farmhouse style and a generous sweep of timber-effect cabinets, with contrasting worktops and tiled splashbacks. It incorporates an integrated dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and space for a cooker. A utility room, with access to the garden, provides a handy overflow space for storage and laundry. The cosily carpeted master bedroom, situated with a tranquil rear garden outlook, boasts a fitted wardrobe and a further range of built-in storage, in addition to a three-piece en-suite shower room with a glazed cubicle.
