Kinclaven Bluebell Woods, Perthshire, Scotland, UK
The area surrounding Kinclaven Bluebell Wood is steeped in history. Nearby Kinclaven Castle was burnt down by the famous knight William Wallace during a siege in 1297. Its remains are still visible in the undergrowth. The castle treasure was taken to nearby woodland – possibly North Wood – where Wallace and his men hid. The Old Kirk Road to Kinclaven Church runs through the wood, an ancient right of way once known as ‘Court Road’. It is believed that criminals were once marched along this road to be hanged from the trees.
