Perthshire parishes

Post by bleckie » Mon May 10, 2010 9:03 am

Good Morning All

Does anyone know where I can obtain a copy of a map showing the Parishes of Perthshire upto 1854, showing parish names and towns and villages,
either to download or purchase.

Yours Aye

I like using the NLS maps :
http://www.nls.uk/maps/os/2nd_ed_list.html
sheet 48 is Perthshire in the late 1890's.

The parishes are all different colours,
but the map itself is still there with all the details of towns and farms etc.

That is a much better map than the one I found Wilma - thanks.
