Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Kinross, Scottish Gaelic: Ceann Rois, a town in Perthshire. It is the traditional county town of the historic county of Kinross-shire. Kinross was originally linked by railway to Perthshire, Fife and Clackmannanshire until the rail links gradually disappeared. The town is located on the shores of Loch Leven, and there are boat trips around the loch and to Loch Leven Castle, where Mary, Queen of Scots was famously held prisoner in 1567. The two main fish species present in Loch Leven are brown trout and perch: the loch's trout have long been noted for their unusual colour and high quality. Other fish living in the loch include sticklebacks, pike, eels, and minnows.
