Overview
Bookmark

Logierait is a village in the north of Perthshire, standing on peninsula between the Tummel River and Scotland's longest river, the Tay. The village has a colourful history, being the birthplace of the sociologist Adam Ferguson and Alexander Mackenzie, a local stonemason who went on to become Prime Minister of Canada in 1873.

The Church at Logierait was founded by St Cedd around 650 and is well worth a visit. A Pictish cross in the churchyard is thought to be over 1000 years old. There are tombstones over 300 years old depicting early biblical scenes.

  • Near the village of Logierait in Perthshire is the ‘Ash Tree of the Boat of Logierait’, which, is believed to have been ‘ the dool tree of the district, on which caitiffs and robbers were formerly executed, and their bodies left hanging till they dropped and lay around unburied.’
