Schiehallion and Aberfeldy Town


Aberfeldy (Obar Pheallaidh in Gaelic) is a burgh in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, on the River Tay. Notable buildings in the town include The Water Mill, which up until 2003 was kept running as a working watermill producing and selling oatmeal. Robert Burns featured the town in his poem, The Birks of Aberfeldy, and it is mentioned in the traditional Loch Tay Boat Song. On 27 November 2002, Aberfeldy was granted Fairtrade Town status. This status was renewed by the Fairtrade Foundation on 15 December 2003. …In 2005 a new church centre for the Parish Church was opened in the former Breadalbane Church in Taybridge Road, serving the congregations which previously worshipped in the former St Andrew's Church in Crieff Road, the former Congregational church in the Square, and the former Free Church in Chapel Street. Site of the raising of the Black Watch (Am Freicadean Dubh) in 1725. Geographical centre of Scotland.
