Encouraging immorality in the church grounds
Interesting but these pieces always seem to focus on the 'big name benefactors' and associated architecture, not giving much time to the general people of the city and surrounding area. No mention of the farming community, or of Hay & Sons and their Mart in Perth. In the 1930s my grandfather, a shepherd at East Cultmalundie (the Easterton) near Tibbermore drove sheep regularly the 6-7 miles into the Mart in Perth, before the days of lorry transportation (Floats) took over the task. He was shepherd there up until 1976.

If you go to the art gallery in Perth you will find in a room a lot of photos hanging up on the wall of what we once the crofts here and its people. I found it fascinating. Drove to muirton of ardblair today to see where is was, I will go back and have a proper look. This video was excellent and meeting with that gentleman you've managed to put an archive together of information that would of been lost. Thanks.
Slàinte mhath mo charaidean! I have been finding a ridiculous amount (I mean that in a good way) of Scots in my tree, Drummond, Grant, Campbell, Stewart, Mackenzie and Blair surnames all tracing back to Scotland on both sides of my family, along with Cornish, Breton and Welsh. I don't expect anyone here to care about that, but with all the "Celtic" ancestry I find it a REALLY strange synchronicity that I've always been drawn to both Iron Age Celtic culture as well as Irish and Scottish folklore and history. 😊 Anyway, to the producers of this video, THANKS for making this, those of us of the diaspora really do appreciate it ❤🇺🇸🏴👍
Any Drummonds out there? Cousin from USA here, slàinte!
The view from the very old green iron bridge over the rapids in Grandtully is my best in the world ❤❤
Aaand you use an English 'expert' because youre too stupid to report on your own history.
Thank you for this so many stories are lost. My mother was bought up there and lived with her grandparents the Stuarts. She was about 10 when Rosie drowned and never got over it. The names you were mentioning were so familiar and as a family we always were close to Tommy Murdoch.
Aye 🏴and dinna forget the Black Watch museum!

really interesting to learn about some local history! :)
LOCH not LOCK!!!
Just lovely, thank you!
This was very interesting. I was taught the song about the 4 Mary's at school.
I am of clan Robertson
I've been learning a lot about them, I'm a Duncan (Texas)
And the Drummond family?
I think the term "Royal" is thrown around far too much. If all these hillforts were "Royal" or "Elite" then there must have been an awful lot of elite people and no normal folk.
I remember before the grate went over the well - used to have a net and clean out all the coins. Sadly a small child drown in the well so they covered.
I loved Perthshire I have been over three times
It was a sad year in 1999 when the farmers stopped the Berry buses in favour of immigrants…
Very interesting!
