Old Photograph Prize Winning Horses Perth Perthshire Scotland

Old photograph of Prize Winning horses at an Agricultural Show in Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. The name Perth comes from a Pictish word for wood or copse. There has been a settlement at Perth since prehistoric times, on a natural mound raised slightly above the flood plain of the Tay, where the river could be crossed at low tide. The area surrounding the modern city is known to have been occupied since Mesolithic hunter-gatherers arrived more than 8000 years ago.
