Lady
Mary's Walk was gifted to the town in 1815 by Sir Patrick Murray of Ochtertyre.
The walk was a favourite of his daughter, Lady Mary. A beautiful beech
lined avenue runs alongside the River Earn for about 1500m. There is considerable
variety of trees, plants and wildlife to observe on this fine walk.
Once an ancient cattle market and Scottish 'frontier town' where Highlanders
would come for the great cattle trysts. Cattle were driven from all over
the north of Scotland to be sold to lowland buyers. Montrose, Rob Roy
Macgregor, Bonnie Prince Charlie, Robert Burns and many others from Scotland's
colourful history have walked Crieff's historic High Street.
