Description
Our rural heritage is in danger of being lost. Rural life in Perthshire has changed out of all recognition in the last one hundred years, the lifestyle that was governed by the mills is in danger of being forgotten. This book describes the numerous mills and the families who ran them along a short stretch of water – The Lunan Burn, 12 miles long with 25 watermills. The surprising lack of published material on watermills in Perthshire, together with poor local knowledge also informed the decision to publish the research.
The mills along the Lunan Burn are an excellent example of our rural heritage, not only in Perthshire but in many parts of rural Scotland, and, as such, deserve to be remembered.
So this book is relevant not only to Perthshire but also to many of Scotland’s rural glens.
