Strathearn

Strathearn is the valley of the River Earn in Perthshire, extending from the Highland hills towards the Tay. South of Crieff stands Drummond Castle, seat of a family whose fortunes became closely tied to the Stuart cause. The Drummond estates were forfeited after the family's involvement in the Jacobite rising of 1745. The castle and its formal gardens overlook the broad valley and its farms.
