Perth and KinrossWade's Road to Amulree
©2011 Gazetteer for Scotland
The hamlet of Amulree in Perth and Kinross lies close to the geographical centre of Scotland. Situated on open moorland by the River Quaich 9 miles (14 km) southwest of Dunkeld, it was once a cattle tryst. Its drovers' inn was a 'King's House' on the 18th Century Wade military road before becoming a coaching inn and its church was founded in 1744 as a mission of the Society for the Propagation of Christian Knowledge. The Primary School here closed in 1998.
