5000 Years of land use in upper Glen Almond Perthshire

Lecture Theatre 7.30-9pm Chester Society for Landscape History members free; non-members £4, pay at the door. This lecture by Professor Richard Oram explores the landscape of upper Glen Almond in Perthshire, a multi-layered record of over 5000 years of human settlement and land-use. From the monumental Neolithic chambered tomb at Clach na Tiompain to the 1930s micro-hydro scheme serving the shooting-lodge at Achnafree, successive transitions in modes of exploitation and settlement form, evidence of profound changes in climate or in global economic systems, are reflected in the glen’s historic environment.
