The River Braan, Scottish Gaelic: Breamhainn, is a tributary of the River Tay in Scotland. Within the county of Perth and Kinross, it flows 11 miles eastwards from Loch Freuchie, near Amulree, and joins the River Tay near Dunkeld. The eminent Victorian English painter, Sir John Everett Millais, born 8 June 1829, died 13 August 1896, one of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, stayed a cottage near the River Braan in the 1870’s when he visited Perthshire on a hunting and fishing trip and two of his landscape pictures The Sound of Many Waters and St Martin's Summer were inspire by the River Braan. Queen Victoria had also been enthused when she visited here in 1865 and wrote that the flow was most splendid and that swollen by rain, it came down with an immense volume of water, with a deafening noise. Officially, the Scottish winter runs from the 21st of December through to the 20th March. All photographs are copyright of Sandy Stevenson, Tour Scotland, and may not be used without permission.
