Tour Scotland Video Atholl Street Dunkeld Highland Perthshire



Tour Scotland video Atholl Street just over the bridge on ancestry visit to Dunkeld, Perthshire, Scotland. Atholl Street on the A923 North road is the main street in Dunkeld. The alignment of the town was radically altered in 1809 by the building of a new stone bridge over the River Tay by Thomas Telford at the east end of the town, and the laying out of Atholl Street at right angles to the old alignment. This street, which retains much of its Georgian appearance, was part of the main route north to Inverness in the Highlands, until Dunkeld was bypassed in 1977, along with Birnam, by the A9.
