Perth and Kinross, at the geographical heart of Scotland, contains
a wide diversity of buildings including the remains of a Roman line
of forts and watch towers, carved stones erected by the warrior
aristocracy of the sixth to ninth centuries, the inventive medieval
Dunkeld Cathedral, and the island fortress of Lochleven Castle.
Blair Castle's mid-eighteenth-century stucco work is unequalled in
Scotland. A multitude of smaller country houses embrace a variety
of styles, while Georgian and Victorian churches, many with superb
stained glass, abound. Towns and villages range from Dunkeld, the
epitome of a small Scottish burgh, to the Royal burgh of Perth.This
is the tenth volume in the Buildings of Scotland series.
