At The Cross 12 till 12.45 ‘straight from the shore to your door’ CANdo July/August 2019 Editorial The other day I came across an interesting statistic, which you may have read in the local and national press. Apparently, Coupar Angus is one of the healthiest of places to live in the UK. It came eighth in a list of the top ten. You may view this with some scepticism - why not in the top three? Or with surprise that our town is mentioned at all. Further investigation revealed how the list was compiled. It comes from Liverpool University and the Consumer Data Research Centre. This body selected various criteria and applied them to towns and villages across the country. These criteria included access to health services - mainly GPs and dentists - air/environmental quality, green spaces, amenities and leisure facilities. With its Butterybank community woodland, park and blue spaces like the Burn, Coupar Angus did well in this analysis. If you are fit and healthy you may be gratified by this result. If however you are less fortunate, this particular league table will have less appeal. But it is salutary to learn that your home town has many advantages.

  • 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.
