This Scottish village is on the A984 Coupar Angus to Dunkeld road about 6 miles east of Dunkeld and 8 miles west of Coupar Angus. Caputh called in ancient records Keapoch, was in former times the site of a Pictish town of great strength, named, according to Boetius, Tuline or Tulina, and the inhabitants of which, who were very numerous, burned and deserted it, on the approach of the Romans. The parish containing the villages of Craigie, Fungarth, Kincairnie, Meikleour, and Spittalfield is situated on the northern bank of the river Tay. The church, built in 1798, is a plain commodious edifice, situated on an eminence near the southern border, and contains sittings for 800 persons.
