Tour Scotland Video Autumn Drive Old Military Road To Trinafour Scottish Highlands

Tour Scotland video of an Autumn road trip drive on General Wade's old Military single track road on ancestry visit to Trinafour in Highland Perthshire, Scotland. Between 1728 and 1730, Wade's men built the road from Dunkeld to Inverness, connecting Perth and Inverness. By July 1728 Wade was able to write in a letter that he had 300 working on the road, that 15 miles of it were finished and that he hoped to have 40 miles completed by October.The road from Crieff led north by the Sma' Glen and Amutree through Glen Cochil and into Aberfeldy by what is now called Old Crieff Road. To the north of the bridge it pioneered the present day route to Tummel Bridge, Trinafour and Dainacardoch where it joined the road from Dunkeld to Inverness in the Highlands.
