Strathearn Perthshire Scotland > Towns > Comrie

Comrie is in the heart of scenic western Strathearn and where the Scottish Highlands truly begin. Situated at the meeting of Glens Lednock and Artney within Strathearn. The Romans call the village Victoria, then the Picts called it Aberlednock. Comrie itself is a Gaelic name given by the Scots who invaded in the 7-8thC. The Lednock leads up to the Deil's Cauldron waterfall and above this the town is overlooked by a hilltop granite obelisk commemorating Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville (1742-1811).
