A small oval-shaped Knoll on which is situated the parish grave-yard and having the parish manse at its south base. It cannot be ascertained whether this knoll is a natural feature or an artificial one, but its appearance would indicate the former to be the case, it forms part of the minister's glebe and is the property of the Church of Scotland.
"In the lives of the Bishops of Dunkeld, (a M.S. [manuscript] written by Alexander Mylne, Canon of Dunkeld), it is related that Bishop Brown, in the year 1500, divided the parish of Little Dunkeld into the old parish of Little Dunkeld and the parish of Caputh; and "at Caputh he built on his own charges, a quire, with painted ceiling and glazed windows. He gave for the support of the vicar, a vicarage, which had been formerly united to his own see, four acres of glebeland, and the rising ground, called the Mute-hill to build a church upon."

The remains of which is traditionally said to be a Druidicial Temple, it consists of three stones, two of which are upright the other inclining at an angle of about 45° towards the south. This inclination is probably caused more from natural than artificial causes, the same might be said of the little cavities which appear on its most exposed face.
"About two miles north of the church, in a very elevated situation, between the farms of East and West Cuilt, there is a small Druidical circle. Beside it are two larger stones, deeply sunk in the ground; the top of the lowest is artifically formed into an inclined plane, facing the south, and contains a number of small cavities, which may have been used by the Druids in the performance of religous rites."

This name is applied to an unfinished building, commenced some years ago, and intended as a family residence for the Dukes of Atholl, it is now falling to decay, and many of the stones have been removed from the walls to to furnish materials for other buildings.
"A little to the east of the two larches stood the old residence of the Atholl family; and to the west, stands the new house in the course of erection. At the death of Duke John in 1830, the operations ceased, a mournful dispersion of the work people instantly took place, and from that hour not a stroke has been heard among the walls. Two floors of this noble edifice are nearly finished, as well as a gallery 96 feet long, besides an elegant private chapel, a spacious staircase, and several noble Gothic windows, which were to have been emblazoned, with all the family shields and quarterings, carved in stone. The walls have been temporarily covered for protection.
In this neighbourhood, it is a singular coincidence that the twin houses of Dunkeld and Murthly have both lost their founder, and have remained ever since unfinished."

A small knoll within the pleasure grounds of the Duke of Athole, it is a natural feature but its appearance has been much improved by art.
"Stanley Hill, to the south of the Stable Court, is the next object that will be noticed. It is a beautiful wooded Knoll, mounded and terraced in the formal style; and as a specimen of the taste of a former age, it is a curiosity, and has been an expensive one, There is a Battery of small cannon on it, for giving salutes."
Dunkeld, its Straths & Glens
The New Statistical Account in speaking of the derivation of Dunkeld, says, "A number of sensible people still assert, that the hazel hill, meant by Dr. [Doctor] Buchannan, is Stanley hill, within the Atholl pleasure grounds; and that from that hill the word Dunkeld is positively derived. Anciently, that hill was a small insignificant knoll, where the town's children amused themselves wrestling. It was a bare sandy knoll, and it was graphically called by them " Shawkee Hill." In 1730, James, Duke of Athole, heightened the knoll at very great expense, and formed it with military slopes, like a German fortification. As a specimen of the taste of a former age, it is a curiosity. This artifical mound, the Duke called Stanley Hill, after his mother, Lady Emily Stanley. The village of Stanley, in Redgorton, derives its name from the same source." |

A long and handsome stone bridge of 7 arches, spanning the River Tay at Dunkeld. property of and repaired by His Grace the Duke of Athole
"The danger and inconvenience of the ferries at Dunkeld, by the occasional swelling of the river, which has been known to rise seventeen feet above its usual level, was long seriously felt. To obviate this complaint, the late of Duke of Athole commenced the present Dunkeld Bridge in 1805, and completed it in 1809, at an expense of £30.000, - £5000 of which was contributed by Government. The pontage, which still exists, lets, on an average, at £700 per annum. The bridge was constructed almost wholly on dry land, and the river afterwards changed in its course, so as to flow through its finely formed arches. It would be difficult to persuade any one that the channel in which the river now flows was not the one formed by itself"
New Statistical Account
"In 1805, the building of Dunkeld Bridge was commenced. It was opened in 1808. For ages previous to that time, there was no communication but by ferry-boats. It is a singularly elegant structure, on which no expense has been spared

Tthe total expense was about £35.000 but of which the Government advanced £5000. The tolls granted for the remainder yield but a small interest on the sums advanced by the Athole family. The length of the bridge is 685 feet, its breadth 27, and its greatest height from the foundation 54. There are five principal and two land arches; the span of the central one being 90 feet, and the others, in succession 85, 75 & 26.

This bridge is kept in repair by the Duke of Athole, pontage being levied on all passing over it for that purpose. |

A neat two storey dwelling house, situated on the north bank of the River Tay and adjacent to the Cathedral, the residence and property of His Grace The Duke of Athole.
"About a century and a half ago, the capacity of the grounds which now form the Dunkeld park was neither understood nor valued. The great improver of the grounds was John, the last Duke of Atholl, one who never saw a difficulty in his gigantic undertakings. In all his improvements he combined utility with ornament. Limited though the grounds are, the Duke so planned them as to have a home farm, grass parks, an extensive garden, ornamental walks, picturesque carriage drives, American gardens, and a lawn, all within the enclosures. In appropriate spots he planted different kinds of wood, which now enhance the varied beauty of the grounds. In every walk the stranger can take, he see before him variety without confusion, and ornament without the least appearance of design. So often have the beauties of the Dunkeld Park been described by pen and pencil, to lengthen this account by the enlarging upon them would be useless. As one of the evidences of their popularity, however, it may be stated, that from 1815 to 1842 inclusive, the grounds have been visited by about 60.000 persons of all ranks; nearly 4000 of which numbers were foreigners. *** Within the pleasure-grounds to the north west of the Cathedral, are the two noted larches, the first that were introduced into Britain. They were brought from the Tyrol by Menzies of Culdares in 1738, and were at first treated as green-house plants. They were planted only one day later than the larches in the Monzie gardens near Creiff. The two Dunkeld larches are still in perfect vigour, and far from maturity. The height of the highest is nearly 90 feet, with girth in proportion. A little to the east of the two larches stood the old residence of the Atholl family; and to the west, stands the new house in the course of erection"

"In the sixth century, King Conal built a monastery for St. Columba, where he and Kentigerne resided for six months. For greater security to them, and to the religious men who should come there to reside and teach, it was built near to that stronghold. The followers of Columba, from their purity of conduct, soon acquired considerable influence, and were enabled to give protection to a fixed or permament residence. From that time dwellings increased around the monastery, the locality grew into importance, and derived its name from the Dun or stronghold of Kaleden or Caledon. For some ages subsequent to 848, it would appear, that the religious establishment of Dunkeld formed the primacy of Scotland, until it was supplanted by St. Andrews. *** At a very early period Dunkeld was, from its natural position, deemed a place of great note among the Caldones or Caledonians. The Romans in the year 138, approached near to this place, but from the many passes and dangerous defiles with which it abounds, they never could successfully invade it. After they left Scotland, and prior to 500, the inhabitants, to meet the improvements in war, built a stronghold which, in Gaelic, was called Dun-ghael-dhuin and by the southerns Dun Kaledin, or Dun-Calidon. It is authenticated by historians, that, about 570, Dunkeld became the abode of the Columbans or Culdees. They were a religious body of men, by whose labours the character of the inhabitants in the northern districts of Scotland was materially improved. Conal, King of the Scots, about 570, built a monastery for them near to the Castle of Calidon, now called Dunkeld, where Kentigerne and Saint Columba, the leader of the order, resided about six months, "teaching and preaching to the people of Atholl, Calidon, and Angus, who came in great numbers to hear their godlie instructions" This establishment was constructed after the original at Iona. Over it an Abbot ruled. The followers of St. Columba, though erroneously called monks, were yet a body of regular clergy, whose form of government was essentially Presbyterian *** In 1127 the monastery of Dunkeld was converted by David I into a regular episcopate. It has been thought that he expelled the Culdees, to make room for a bishop,

bishop. On the contrary, he guaranteed to them during life the rights and possessions which had formerly belonged to their abbey. The Culdees continued to nominate their superior, but a short time, when they were superseded in their elections by the canons regular. In 1318, Bishop Sinclair, better known as Robert the Bruce's own bishop, built the choir on the site of part of the old monastery, - the old abbey church, built by Kenneth, serving as the place of worship until the new edifice was finished. As a memorial of his having built the choir, he placed on the top of the eastern gable a cross ingraillé, part of the arms of his family, where it remained, much delapitated, until the repairs of 1817, when it was renewed. In the middle of the gable are to be seen several reddish stones, which formed part of the wall of the monastery. *** There are two upright stones on the south of the cathedral, which formed part of the old monastery".

The site of an an ancient chapel in the town of Dunkeld which was dedicated to St. Ninian.
"About 1420, Bishop Cardney built and dedicated a chapel to St. Ninian. It stood upon the ground now occupied by the present buildings in the city of Dunkeld called Atholl Street. It is recorded, that the bishop bought the lands of Mucklarie, and out of the rents he endowed the chaplain. By virtue of a grant, the dues payable to the chaplain have now been conferred on the rector of the Royal School of DunKeld. The bishop died 16th. January 1436, and was honourably buried under a stone monument within the walls of the chapel. *** In the south aisle of the cathedral is the monument of Bishop Cardney, lying in a recess of the wall, under a canopy adorned with crockets. The figure of the bishop is represented in pontificalibus, wearing his mitre. The inscription on the stone-plate is very much defaced. It runs thus: "Hic jacet Dns. [Dominus] Robertus de Cardony, Eppis. [Episcopus] Dunkeldenni qui." - Three words are here defaced, and the inscription on the plate to the back is partly broken off. What remains is ad incarnationem Dne [Domine] M.CCCC.XX. This monument was brought from St. Ninian's chapel, and placed in the cathedral subsequent to 1464."

The site of the ancient cross of Dunkeld.

Lord Nairn and Lochiel were sent forward to proclaim the Pretender at Dunkeld, which they did at the old cross *** The old cross was a round pillar, on which was four round balls, supporting a pyramidal top. It was of stone, and stood about 20 feet high. The pedastal was 12 feet square. On the pillar hung four iron jugs for punishing petty offenders. The cross was removed about 40 years ago."

The site of the palace of the Bishops of Dunkeld.
"The palace of the bishops stood a little to the south-west of the cathedral. It consisted of several long houses of two stories, thatched after the manner of the times. For greater security to that residence, a castle was erected close to it in 1408. The castle contained " a great hall, with vaulted granaries and a larder," - a precautionary step against any long continued attack from the clans. Although no vestige of this edifice remains, its site is still called " the Castle Close". In 1508, a wing was built to the palace, and adjoining to it a handsome private chapel. Bishop Brown furnished the palace in 1509, and left the furniture to his successors in office".

"Bede-House. - Bishop Brown in 1510, erected a house, Called St. George's Hospital, for the support of seven old men, who were each to have a free house, five bolls of meal, and five merks Scots yearly. In 1689, the hospital was burned; small low cottages were then built, but subsequently, substantial buildings were erected on their site. Part of the buildings were sold; the rents derived from the remainder are laid out in meal, which is equally divided among the bedemen. The commissary has the sole administration of the hospital funds".

The old grammar school, to which James VI made a grant in 1567, stood near the Cathedral, within the Duke of Athole's grounds. It was removed in 1812, and the present one, a neat and substantial two-storey building, erected in its stead. Education afforded:- English reading, writing and arithmetic, Greek, French, and Latin. Average attendance 30.
"In 1567, James VI. made a grant for the erection of a grammar school at Dunkeld, which is designated by the charter the "Royal School of Dunkeld". The right of presentation is conferred on John Earl of Atholl, and his successors, but the examination and admission to the office of the person presented is intrusted "to the superintendent of the church of God within the bounds of Perthshire". By the grant it is declared, that the rector shall reside within the city of Dunkeld, and shall teach in the school himself. The salary, according to the grant, amounts to £67.11.1 Scots, exclusive of school fees. He has also an official residence. The school and dwelling house are kept up by the Atholl family, the sole heritors of Dunkeld. The average number of scholars may be estimated at 80. The branches of education are similar to those taught in the first establishments in Edinburgh. There are half-yearly examinations, one for recitation exclusively, called the "Orations", which is succeded by a ball in the evening; the other examination is general, and is conducted by the presbytery."

The ruins of a Cathedral, half of which is unroofed and used as a place of interment for several families in the locality, the east half has been repaired and is used as the established church. A small piece of ground, very limited in extent is also used as a place of interment, this is the only burying ground within the limits of Dunkeld.
"In 848 Kenneth MacAlpin built a church at Dunkeld, from respect to the memory of St. Columba, wherin he deposited the relics of that Saint, which had become unsafe at Iona from the rapacity of the Danes. The site of this sacred depository has not yet been discovered by antiquarians. By this act of Kenneth, St. Columba became the patron saint of Dunkeld and its church. In 1127, the monastery of Dunkeld was converted by David I into a regular episcopate. It has been thought that he expelled the Culdees to make room for a bishop. On the contrary he guaranteed to them during life the rights and possessions which had formerly belonged to their abbey. The Culdees continued to nominate their superior, but a short time, when they were superseded in their elections by the canons regular. In 1318 Bishop Sinclair, better known as Robert the Bruce's own bishop, built the choir on the site of part of the old monastery - the old abbey church, built by Kenneth, serving as the place of worship until the new edifice was finished. As a memorial of his having built the choir, he placed on top of the eastern gable a cross ingraillé, part of the arms of his family, where it remained, much dilapitated, until the repairs of 1817, when it was removed. In the middle of the gable are to be seen several reddish stones, which formed part of the wall of the monastery. Bishop Peblis in 1380, glazed the eastern window of the choir, and adorned it with several figures painted on fine glass. Bishop Cardney, on the 27th. April 1406, founded the nave of the church, and raised it as far as the second row of arches commonly called "blind storeys". Bishop Ralston, who assumed the mitre in 1447, finished the nave, and began the aisles of the cathedral. Dean Mill says, this bishop "had this work so much at heart, that he and one or two people of high rank who staid with him had a custom of carrying every day

day out of the quarry of Burnbane several burdens of stones". The stones for building the choir and cathedral were all of small size, as they had to be carried on horseback by means of curachs. Roads and carts were subsequent inventions. The workmen's wages did not exceed 3d [£0.0.3], nor that of the labourers 2d [£0.0.2], Scots per day. The mortar was carried in baskets on horseback. The cost of a man with a horse and baskets, or with a curach, was 3d [£0.0.3] Scots per day. In 1460 Bishop Lauder finished the cathedral. He built the porch of the south gate, and adorned it with several fine images. There is a gateway at the western end, of which there is no record. In 1464, Bishop Lauder dedicated the church to its old patron, St. Columba. *** In 1469, Bishop Lauder built the chapter-house, and also the steeple or greater tower of the cathedral. The height of that tower is about 96 feet, and its base 24 feet each side. It was at one time mounted with small cannon, and occupied in 1689, by the Cameronians in their defence of the town, There is, on the west side of the tower, a singular zig-zag rent from the top to the bottom, which seems to have been caused by the insufficient foundation of the northwest corner. *** The cathedral, which had been erected with so much taste and ability, became a noble ruin in 1560, and stands to this day a striking picture of the mutability of human opinions. On the 12th. of August that year, an authority, in the handwriting of Lord James Stewart, - judging from his signature, - and subscribed by him, Argyle and Ruthven, directed the lairds of Airntully and Kinvaid "to pass incontinent to the Kyrk of Dunkeld, and tak doun the haill images thereof, and bring furth to the Kirk-zayrd and burn tham oppinly. And siclyk cast down the altaris, and purge the Kyrk of all kinds of monuments of idolatyre. And this ye faill not to do, as ye will do us singular empleseur; and so committis to the protection of God. Faill not, but ze tak guid heyd, that neither the dasks, windocks, nor durris be ony ways hurt or broken - eyther glassin wark or iron wark." It would have been well had this order been literally obeyed, but the demolition was unfortunately carried on with a disposition of mind and temper more worthy of reprobation than applause. The cathedral and the choir were completely sacked. The windows were smashed, and the doors torn from their hinges. For the credit of the mob, it does not appear from the walls that fire had ever been applied as one of their engines of destruction. Tradition affirms that what these lairds had left undestroyed was demolished by the Laird of Cairdney, among whose family papers the original order for the destruction is to be found. This laird unroofed the cathedral, although one of his ancestors had honourably presided in it as bishop, whose tomb was and still is one of its attractions, and from whom part of his power as laird had been acquired. *** In 1691 or therabouts, the Atholl family

family repaired the choir for worship at their own private expense. In 1762, Government contributed £300 towards a first repair, and in 1815, £1000 towards a second repair, to which the Duke of Atholl added £5000, and restored the choir, with some slight variations, to its original state. The cathedral still stands unroofed, and unheeded by government. But from time to time it has received such repairs from the Atholl family as will prevent it becoming a total ruin. The area of the cathedral, once the highly prized cemetry of the great, is, with a scrag of ground to the south of it, the only burial-place of the inhabitants of Dunkeld. Where the inhabitants interred their dead prior to 1560, is now difficult to tell. Although the cathedral and place of interment are situated within the walls of the Dunkeld park, yet access is freely given by the keeper of the east gate, at reasonable hours, to every person who have there a right of sepulture. *** Antiquities and Ancient Places - The first is the roofless cathedral. It measures 120 by 60 feet; the walls are 40 feet high; and the side aisles 12 feet wide. On each side are seven spacious Gothic arches with fluted soffits, resting on six plain Norman pillars having shafts 10 feet high, and 4½ feet in diameter, and two half columns. Over the arches are two tiers of windows, the lower semicircular, the higher acute. Buttresses project between the windows of the side-aisles, surmounted above the church with traceried spiracles. The windows are all of different designs. At the west end rises the great tower or steeple, and adjoining it, a small octagonal watch-tower, which is very much admired. There are two upright stones on the south of the cathedral, which formed part of the old monastery."

A small town, situated on the north bank of the River Tay, The houses vary from two to three stories in height and all are slated, It consists of several schools, two places of worship, three branch banKs, a freemasons lodge, a number of very good shops,
"The word Dunkeld is derived from three ancient British words, Dun, "a stronghold, and Kaled and in "a rough mountainous country." By joining these words together we have Dun-Kaled-in, " the stronghold of the rough mountainous country"; - or the stronghold of Kaledin. The letter C in the ancient British language was very frequently used as K; and hence the word Kaledin came to be written by historians Caledin, Calidon and Caledon. Prior to the fifth century, the Caledones, or Caledonians had a stronghold situated, it is supposed, upon a Knoll called the King's Seat, at the entrance of the vale of Atholl, near to the city of DunKeld. The stronghold, from its position, had the effective command of the passes leading into Atholl. It appears to have been at the time an important feature in the country, for Hollingshed, in speaKing of the sanguinary battle of Monteith, between the Scots and Picts, adds, for geographical direction, that the field of engagement, although near to the county of Stirling, was "not farre from Calidon Castell, otherwise called Dunkeld." ***
Dunkeld, with the enclosed pleasure ground, is somewhat of a semi-circular form, about 1½ mile in circumference, and about three fourths of a mile in diameter. It is surrounded by high hills, on the east, west and north, and sKirted on the south by the river Tay. DunKeld is about 15 miles to the north of Perth, and at an elevation of 130 feet above the level of the sea. It is bounded in the west by the parish of Dowally; and, with the exception of the site of the cathedral church and part of the town, the ground lies within the parish of Caputh. The boundaries of DunKeld as a parish, properly so called, are not only limited, but not very easily ascertained. As DunKeld was the Bishop's see, and the services of the cathedral was [continued on page 76] |

was performed by his chaplain, or by some of the beneficed clergy in the neighbourhood, it was not. during the time of the bishops, thought necessary to constitute it formally a parish. In fact, it does not appear to have been done. It is not entered as a parish in the county-cess booKs. What might be called the parish, quoad civilia can be no more than what was formerly included within the boundaries of the old city of DunKeld. It is said that the cathedral church stood about the centre of the old town. In 1689, the city was reduced to ashes by the adherents of James VII. It is impossible now to state what were the boundaries of the old city, or even to name the extent of ground they embraced. The last Statistical Account says, that the houses and gardens to the west and north-west of the cathedral occupied a space extending to about five acres, and that that portion of the town was never rebuilt. In 1690, the present town was built to the east of the cathedral. There is a small burn called Ketlochy or Catlochin, contained in a common sewer which run through the town. On the west side of that burn, the properties are, by the title-deeds, described as lying not within the parish, but within the city of DunKeld. On the east side of it, the properties are titled to be lying within the parish of Caputh. Dunkeld is not a parish, properly so called, but, as an ecclesiastical parish, it consists of two parts, - the city of DunKeld, and that part of the city, within the the parish of Caputh; the former quoad civilia, and the latter, although never formally annexed, quoad sacra. By the form of the presentation to the minister, he is presented to the united churches of DunKeld and Dowally. At neither place is there a manse and glebe; but he receives a pecuniary equivalent. From the circumstance of presenting to the united churches, the people, in common speech, though erronerously, have for the last century, called DunKeld the parish of DunKeld; and, under the Reform Act, proprietors in the town of Dunkeld in claiming a right to vote in the county, describe their property as lying in the said city, and within the united parishes of DunKeld and Dowally. *** The city of DunKeld subsequent to 1690, formed one street, from the cathedral to the top of the hill on the eastward, by which hill the traveller had to descend to the town. The old residence of the Atholl family in DunKeld was built to front this old approach to the city, and the double rows of trees which lined the access to the mansion are still standing. After the erection of the DunKeld Bridge in 1809, the town completely changed both its form and ancient appearance. The great north road from Perth to Inverness was made to intersect the town, and a new street of handsome buildings was formed, in a line with the bridge. In the old part of the town, near to the cross, the weekly cattle marKets are held, and all imported vegetables &c are sold. A small yearly assessment on [continued on page 77] |

on the inhabitants repairs the streets; but there is no assessment for lighting the town during winter, which is a great desideratum. There is no gas-work; no public green for bleaching; and no grounds for public amusements. The cleaning of the streets is paid by the sale of the sweepings. The inhabitants at one time intended to avail themselves of the act of Parliament termed Loch's Act, for the better management of the town; but on a representation to them, that it was not a burgh of barony, but only a portion of the barony of DunKeld, that movement terminated. The police of the city is at present regulated by a magistrate, deputed by the DuKe of Atholl, who is the hereditary bailie, in place of the Bishop of DunKeld. The salary of the Bishop's bailie is £40 Scots, payable out of the Bishop's rents. The city is now built in the form of a cross. Its extent is not perceived by a stranger until he reaches the centre of DunKeld Bridge. At that point he has a full view of the town. *** During the reign of Charles II, an offer was made to erect the town of DunKeld into a royal burgh, but that offer was at the time declined. Queen Anne renewed the offer in 1704, which was accepted. The requisite charter was prepared, and ready for the royal signature, when as traditionally reported, a dispute arose among the inhabitants as to the expense of the charter, which they refused to pay, and the matter was allowed to drop. The Charter was dated 17th. April, and written to the great seal. 16th, and sealed 20th September 1704." New Statistical Account
Dunkeld is a market town; a marKet being held weekly for the sale of farm produce, there is, however, no public market building, the business being transacted in the open air. There are also five annual fairs viz in February, March, April, June and November, these fairs are all held for the sale of cattle and farm produce, and for the feeing of servants. The town has, since 23rd. December 1850 been lighted with gas. Small Debt courts are held, periodically, in DunKeld, but all criminal cases are dealt with in Perth. |

" A river draining the greater part of Perthshire and passing off to the sea between Forfarshire and Fifeshire. It issues from Loch Tay, or rather begins there to take its name of the Tay; but it is really formed by two great head streams which rise among the Grampians on the mutual border of Perthshire and Argyleshire. The northern stream bears successively the names of the Garrie, the Rannoch, and the Tummel; and in its progress, it forms, by the expansion of its waters, the three great lakes Lydoch, Rannoch, and Tummel. **** The southern one of the great head streams bears successively the names of the Fillan, the Dochart, and the Tay; and traverses, in its progress, Loch Dochart and Loch Tay. It rises on the side of Benloy, at the boundary of Killin with Argyleshire 7 miles in a straight line north-north-west of the head of Loch Lomond; and, measured in straight lines and through its lakes, to its junction with the Tummel, it performs a run of about 57miles. *** From the lower end of Loch-Tay to its junction with the Tummel, a distance of about 14 or 15 miles, it traverses the east end of Kenmore, washes isolated districts of Dull, Fortingal, Logierait, and Weem, and divides the main body of Logierait on its left bank from Little Dunkeld on its right. From its junction with the Tummel to its junction with the Earn, where it begins to expand its estuary, it achieves, irrespective of similarities, a distance of 32 miles, in alternate directions of 6 southward and 11 eastward, and of 11 southward and 5 eastward; *** Its entirely length of course, jointly as a river and as an estuary, is thus, if measured in straight lines from the head of the Garrie, 118 miles, - of its measurement in the same way from the head of the Fillan, 115 miles - and if measured along its channel from either of the remote sources, between 160 and 200 miles. *** The extent of the surface drained by the Tay and its tributaries is variously computed at 2396, 2750 square miles, and that of the Spey, the entirely Scottish river next to it in size,at, 1300 and 1298¾ square miles.The geographic positions and character of the district most of the waters are drawn , being in the case of the two rivers very similar, the Tay may be supposed to discharge about twice as much water as the Spey. Dr. [Doctor] Anderson, making a nice measurement for a judicial purpose, determined the quality of water which in the mean state of the river, flows through a section of it opposite Perth, to be at the rate of 3640 cubic feet per second. *** Though averagely changed at Perth, as we have seen, with 3640 cubic feet of water per second, it was reduced, in the course of the summer of 1819, to 457 cubic feet, and at the close of the summer of 1835, to a still smaller volume."

The site of a Stone wall or Dyke Said to have been six feet high and four feet thick, and enclosing a portion of land, known at the time of its existence, as Laighwood Park, none of the dyke now Stands, it having been taken down about 100 years since, an ordinary Stone dyke has since been erected on the Site of the old one, unless in some short distances. No one can say why this was called the Picts Dyke, but tradition supposes it to have been erected by the Picts, but for what purpose remains a mystery. The land it enclosed was (it is said) granted by Robert II towards the end of the 14th century, to the Earl of Murray. and, with the exception of a Small portion in Caputh parish, still remains in the same family, the title having changed to Duke of Athole. |

A large Stream which rises in the high ground some distance north of Loch Ordie, and after a course of several miles falls into the Lunan Burn a short distance south-east of Laighwood farmsteading for some part of its course it forms the boundary between the parishes of Cluny and Caputh.
"The Buckny takes its rise from Loch-na-chat, and falling to the south-east between the mountains of Ben-achally and Duchray, forms the Dow loch; thence, increased by the springs of the Dow loch, it thunders down a deep, narrow, rocky den, covered with wild wood, called the Den of Ryechip, and separating the parishes of Caputh and Clunie, enters the latter in the park of Laighwood, where it unites with the Lunan."

The remains of an ancient fort situated on the summit of the Craig of Stenton, the defensive works of which are faintly traceable, the situation commands an extensive view of the vale of Strath More, and was no doubt chosen as a place of defence in consequence. Tradition ascribes this place as one of the advanced posts of the Caledonian Army, and constructed for the purpose of watching the operation of the Romans when encamped at Inchtuthill.
"Near the top of the Craig of Stenton, (a remarkable detached conical hill, about a mile west from the church,) is a place called Kemp's Hold, or the Soldier's Fastness, bearing evident marks of having been a fortified spot"

A fresh-water lake, an expansion of the Lunan Burn, there is a Small island in it on which is an ancient Castle. property of the Earl of Earlie.
"Loch of Clunie, Is approached on the east. It differs completely from the preceding ones, being surrounded by hills of moderate elevation, and offering, therefore, no Alpine features. But in its own character it is very pleasing, and, from one or two points, not unfitted for a picture. It is two and a half miles in circumference, and in some parts eighty-four feet in depth. The extent being inconsiderable, and the margin generally surrounded by ornamental grounds, the whole has somewhat the appearance of an artificial lake; if ever such a work could be so large, or so well disposed. The air of intended ornament and apparent art is also increased by the beautiful little Island on which there is an Old Castle, nearly as large as the island itself. The Island is supposed to be at least partly artificial, but there is no tradition as to when it was so formed." Dunkeld, its Straths & Glens
The whole of this lake is in the parish of Clunie. the greater part of its Southern edge forming the boundary between that parish and the parish of Caputh. |

"At Delvine or Inchtuthill, on a square area Steep on all Sides, and elevated about 50 feet above the surrounding plain, are traces of a Roman Station 500yds. [yards] square. This seems to have been one of the stations which Agricola established at the foot of the Grampiains, but not the place which he encamped before his engagement with Galgacus, The walls were nine and a half feet in thickness, built with stones from a quarry about two miles distant. (Wester Gourdie.) The stones have been gradually removed and the walls are now almost levelled with the plough, In the course of ploughing fragments of weapons have been found" * At present the fortifications have more the appearance of earthen embankments. The Rampart and ditch on the south side are entire, except at the south east angle, a portion of which was levelled when forming a vegetable garden now also removed A ditch is now the only remains of defence on the east side. the north was defended by a natural slope. The embankment on the west side can only [be] traced by the assistance of a right angle off the south west corner and a slight swell in the ground above the general level of the field

OUTPOST (Roman) [Inchtuthil]:
It is superfluous to prefix Roman to this Outpost as the
Camp, Redoubt, and the Outpost are on the same plan.
Outpost in this case is written in one word in conformity
with the rule adopted in writing the same name on the Plans.
Since the above note was written, Capt. [Captain] Pratt R.E. [Royal Engineers] has decided upon writing the term "Outpost"
considering that the words "Roman Camp" will sufficiently embrace this object on the plan. J.L. |

" Delvine or Inchtuthill 12 miles north of Perth, on a square area of 160 acres, steep on all sides, and elevated about 50 feet above the surrounding plain are traces of a Roman Camp, or Station about 500 yards square _ part of a Redoubt near the eastern point of the area on the top of a bank, and on the western part of the hill, a strong semcircular ford, fenced, on the east side by five ramparts of earth, and as many ditches, in the area are several tumuli, This seems to have been one of the stations or posts, which Agricolo established at the foot of the Grampians, but not the place where hr encamped before his engagement with Galgacus, Boetius says that the Picts had a town called Tulina on this elevated tract, which they deserted and burned on the approach of the Romans" Playfairs Statistical Account.
" About a mile from the village of Spittalfield is Inchtuthel, where there are the remains of a Camp occupied by the Romans in the year 138. Here the Picts had a town, which must have been a place of great strength, and of which the vestiges may be discerned at the south west Corner. Boetius calls it Tuline or Tulina, and says that it was well fortified, but deserted and burned by the Picts on the approach of the Romans under Agricolo. The Romans availed themselves of the position, and placed their Camp on the north east border. It is 500 yards square. |

Description of Inchtuthill Continued
The walls were nine and a half feet in thickness, built with stones from a quarry about two miles distant. The stones have been gradually removed, and the walls are now almost levelled with the plough. There are two Tumuli and a redoubt on the South east side of the Camp. Inchtuthel is likewise believed to have been part of the land granted by Kenneth III who ascended the throne in 997. to Hay for his bravery in rallying the Scots when they fled from the Danes at the battle of Luncarty. Hay's descendants passed it till the beginning of the seventeenth century." Dunkeld Guide Book.
Inchtuthill including the space occupied by by the Camp has been laid out as ornamental ground. The vegetable garden which once occu-pied a corner of the Roman Camp has been removed. The surface levelled, trees thinly planted and its steep sides covered with wood, South of Inchtuthil on the north bank of the River Tay, there is a triangular shaped piece of land defined by three upright stones marked D and K belonging to the proprietor of the land on the opposite side but rented by Sir A M. McKenzie and belongs to Caputh Parish |

A chain is also stretched across the river, and which, passing over a fly-wheel fixed to the side of the platform, keeps the boat in a straight course. It is capable of taking in four loaded carts at one time, without unyoking the horses, and the passage is performed in five minutes" New Statistical Account |

The parish of Dunkeld and Dowally is in the Presbytery of Dunkeld, and Synod of Perth and Stirling. Patron the Duke of Athole.
"Dunkeld is not a parish, properly so called, From the circumstance of presenting to the united churches, the people, in common speech, though erroneously, have, for the last century, called Dunkeld the parish of Dunkeld; and under the Reform Act, proprietors in the town of Dunkeld, in claiming a right to vote in the County, describe their property as lying in the said City, and within the united parishes of Dunkeld and Dowally. At what period the Cathedral Church of Dunkeld was united to the church and parish of Dowally is not known."

"Dowally, formerly a chapelry in the parish of Caputh in Perthshire, but disjoined form it in 1500, and now annexed to the parish of Dunkeld."

"Though Dunkeld and Dowally are now commonly considered as forming one parish, yet the statistical circumstances of each are so completely different, that it has been thought proper to give an account of them separately." Old statistical Account vol. [volume] 20. page 410
In the Valuation Roll for 1857&58, Dunkeld and Dowally are entered as one parish. It consists of three separate and distinct parts; the smallest portion which contains the Cathedral Church and part of town of Dunkeld, is considered in these remarks the primary part of the parish; it contains 23 Statute acres, and is bounded on the east, west, and north by Caputh Parish; and on the south by Little Dunkeld parish.
Dunkeld and Dowally parish Detached No. 1 is bounded on the east, south, and west, by Logierait parish; and on the north by the parishes of Moulin,and Kirkmicheal; it contains 1368 Statute acres.
Dunkeld and Dowally parish Detached No. 2 contains the church of Dowally, and is bounded on the north by Logierait parish; on the west and south by Little Dunkeld parish; and on the east by the parishes of Clunie and Caputh; it contains 8435 Statute acres.
The two detached portions of Dunkeld and Dowally parish formed the ancient Chapelry of Dowally. There are no detached portions of any other parish locally situated within this parish. |

It is perfectly straight as far as we can trace it but Knox in his map shews it extending in a straight line from the point at Deuhead to the Praetorium which is incorrect as it lies some distance within the Camp, and not in a straight line with the dike (see Description of the Praetorium) At equal distance on each side of the dike, is a ditch apparently where the rampart has been thrown up from, it is in height from 6 to 8 links & about 50 links broad at least - According to the |

CLEAVEN DIKE |
Continued |
|

[According to the] tradition of the locality it formed the northern defence of a large Roman Camp, the other sides were defended by the rivers Tay and Isla. The Tay has altered its course considerably since the period of this Camp, for Messrs. Duff, & Stewart says that tradition has it, anciently passing by the Kirkton of Lethendy to Deuhead when it took an angle & thence skirted southerly along the base of that slope extending to the present course of the Tay near Meiklour House, the nature of the ground would bear this tradition out, hence the slope will form the western boundary of the Camp as near as possible. |

ROMAN CAMP [Cleaven Dyke] |
|
|
063 |
At Meiklour about 4 miles to the South of Craig Roman (Blairgowrie Ph. [Parish] ) in an angle formed by the confluence of the Isla and Tay are clearly to be seen the remains of a Roman Camp capable of containing the Army of Agricola, protected by the two rivers in question on two sides; of the triangular encampment. it was only necessary to throw up an entrenchment in front towards the north, & accordingly you may trace throughout its whole length, a rampart in some places still 20 feet broad & 5 feet high, extending in a straight line from the Isla to the old course of the Tay. The praetorium too is quite distinct, and runs no risk of being degraded, in short there is not a shadow of doubt regarding the authenticity of the Camp
Perth Constitutional 21st. Oct. 1840.
There appears to have been a roman station 3 miles to the east of this (Camp at Inchtuthill) in the moor of Meiklour, towards the extremity of the parish. The line of the Roman military road leading thither, can still be traced through the parishes of Scone, St Martin's & Cargill: & this road seems unquestionably to be the continuation of that which passed through Strathmore & crossed the Tay at Rome a little to the westward of Scone, where probably there was a bridge of wood over the river. Where the Roman road touches on the Isla, a bridge is also supposed to have stood, of which the necessity is evident, for the purpose of opening a communication from the south with the station near Meiklour - Here the Romans raised a wall of earth, about 24 feet thick, defended by a ditch on each side 60 feet distant from the wall. This wall, which is now named the Cleaving Dike, stretched above 2 miles & a half from the ancient course of the Tay to the Isla; which by their commodious junction 2 miles below, completely |

"completely secured the Station. The space Enclosed is in the form of a delta. In this
"area, there are several exploratory mounts; one apparently artificial, (now called the
"Blackhill, & planted with firs.) stands near the head of the supposed bridge, & from
"the remains of a fortification on the top, seems to have been designed to cover the landing-place."
Old Stat [Statistical] Account IX-506.
"At the spot where the road touches on the Isla, a bridge is supposed once to
"have stood: the necessity is evident: for on the opposite side was a considerable
"Roman post. The Romans profited of the commodious accident of the two rivers, the Tay
"& the Isla, which unite at a certain distance below. These formed two secure fences: the
"Romans made a third by a wall of great thickness, defended again by a ditch both on
"the inside & the outside. These extend 3 miles in a line from the Tay to the Isla, leaving
"within a vast space, in form of a Delta. Near the head of the bridge is a large mount
"exploratory, & probably once protected by a tower on the summit. On a line with this are
"two others; one about the middle of the Area; the other nearer the Tay. These are round;
"but Mr. Marshall doubts whether they are the work of art. But close to the junction of the
"Tay and Isla is a fourth, artificial, which is styled Carrack-Know, or the Boat-hill
"& seems designed to cover a landing place. I must note that the Wall is styled the
"Cleaving Wall. it merits further disquition [disquisition], as it will probably be found to be subservient
"to the uses of the Camps at [Hiethie] & other places in the neighbourhood, which some native
"antiquary may have ample time to explore"
Pennants Tour of 1772 Vol [volume] II-458
" It has been conjectured indeed, that the Roman garrison of Inchtuthill had
"by means of an earthen rampart. connected their works at that spot with a small
"fort on the river Isla, 2½ miles distant, which enabled them more effectually
"to cut off all means of egress from the mountain districts beyond. The remains of
"this vallum are described as having been about 20 feet thick, protected by a Ditch |

"ditch on either side. It stretched from the old bed of the Tay at Inchtuthill to the banks of the Isla, at
"a point 2 miles above the present confluence of these rivers, - forming a triangular-shaped inclosure, bounded on
"the right & left by the convergent streams, & in front by the rampart in question. Within the area of this delta, which
"measured about 2 miles long on each of its 3 sides,were several conical rising grounds, supposed to have been
"exploratory mounts. (Cleaving Dyke was the name by which it was known in later times.) If we may regard it
"as a work of the Romans, the existence of this wall must necessarily confer some additional importance on the
"works at Inchtuthill as the vestigia of a Roman station; showing to have formed part of a great advanced
"post, in connection with which no labour had been spared to secure the full advantages of its naturally strong position"
Caledonia Romana p [page] 209.
"From this Camp (at Inchtuthel) a large wall of earth, called the Cleaving dike, 24 feet thick with a
"ditch, on each side, 60 feet distant from the wall, runs out in a straight line, W.N.W. [West-North West] nearly 2½ miles & is said to have
"joined the ancient course of the Tay. If this last circumstance be true, this rampart & those trenches, must have
"formed a very large defensible inclosure, in the form of a delta, 6 or 7 miles, in circumference; having the Isla
"on the east & South-east, the Tay on the South & west, & the Cleaving dike connecting both these rivers, on the north."
Chalmers Caledonia p [page] 176.
The Roman Camp of Micklehour is formed by the confluence of the Tay & Isla, it stretches 2 miles along
the Tay, 2 miles along the Isla, & 2 miles & a half along the dike that incloses it. It contains a praetorium on the
side next the Isla. The above mentioned dike is called Cleaven dike (that is the dike of the fork or confluence); a mile
& a half is still standing towards the Tay. There is a draught of it in Stobie's map of Perthshire; but it cannot be traced
within half a mile of the praetorium; the map stretches it out too far on the end next the praetorium. The Tay had formerly
run nearer the W. [West] end of the dike than it does at the present. Cleaven dike is 20 feet broad at present, & about 5 feet high and has been made out of two parallel trenches that are 20 yards from the dike on the opposite sides of it. Cleaven dike has openings at
the W. [West] end, and the middle for the egress & ingress of an army. The camp has a small exploratory fortification within it,

On the farm of Heraldhill is the Pretorium of the Roman Camp of Meikelour shewn by Knox in his Map as being at the end of the Vallum called the Cleaven Dike- but according to Mr. Walker's tradition this vallum or dike had joined the Isla at the junction of the fence (see trace 5) The Pretorium is well defined by three principle ramparts, the outer dike or rampart (shewn on trace) is diminutive & may only have been made subsequently to enclose the wood from cattle- the centre is slightly elevated, and at each angle is an opening - |

"on the top of an Eminence. Cleaven dike is the "vallum" of Tacitus. His expression would not be accurate, but
"in a case like this, where there is only one line of dike to the camp. The Roman legions he says were drawn up
" "pro vallo," before the vallum of Cleaven dike, at such distance behind the battle, that they could be of no
"immediate Service there; & therefore, upon seeing the number of the enemy, many advised to bring up the
"legions, "plerique admonebant arcessendas legiones."

[Note in red ] "Although the old bed of the River (Tay) has now
filled up to a considerable extent, & in some places affords excellent pasture, or has even been put under Crop,
yet in great floods it is also covered with water, which
Sometimes ascends so far up on the farm, As to Assume
the appearance of a large lake, In other Seasons. the pools
in the old bed of the River are much frequented by
wild ducks ie - It may be mentioned that it is this farm
of Haugh of Meikleour, which in large Maps is designated
the "Bloody Inches." but no satisfactory origin of the name
