I think it's more like the river just below the Bridge at the back of the golf club. With Weem in the background.

I think you can see the feature in this satellite image indicated by the red arrow. (Mike)

You think it might be just above the campsite

Phillip, have a look at this, there's something off/different has this "weir" been moved? Or a very low river?

Definitely Weem Rock in the picture

Good to have the names. I recognised a few faces. This was the class above mine when I went to Breadalbane in 1960. Evelyn Menzies and Helen Kay were on the same school bus as me. Brings back memories.

No 7 Dennis Scott? No 21 Jean Stewart, Myrtle Stewart’s sister?

Morag Cameron next to Susan..Patricia Grant front row beside Liz Roy...do I see Alan Gilchrist there too?two in top row

Florence Lorimer no 14 .,..she left in 6th year in 1961...this is definitely 3 or 4 years before that.....there was a Libbie Laurie in her class and Anna Stewart ..not sure which they are tho .

15 looks like a Davidson. And 22 looks like flora murdoch

Does anyone have any school pictures of the early 1950’s ? Please

I think no 4 is Alec Batty

I recognise Flora Murdoch.. Macnab was her single name.. I knew the whole family as they stayed in Grandtully..

No 4. Iain Grindley? No 16 Jean -?

P.. Grant two along from Liz I mean!!

Think 12 might be Sheena Barnett?

Susan no 11

9- Bill Scott ( Andrews grandpa) and 10 Gregor Scott ( Bills younger brother)

I wonder if some were evacuees.

No5 is Donald McPherson (Sandy’s Uncle)

No 3 was my uncle Teddy Moyes from Rannoch.

Joanne, are you sure Bill Scott is not number 9

Beverley Scott

The school bell, the school dinners, segregated play areas, Friday afternoon Arts and Skills session with the large Weaving Loom...but mostly the lingering smell of carbolic soap! Great days and a sound education...wouldn’t change anything!

That's where I started school.. The headmaster was called Mr Mathieson.. My teacher Miss Sharpe.. As I was left handed. I used to be rapped over knuckles. Superstition.. Was unlucky they thought.

Michael Haigh grantully again...

Very interesting !

‘ Makimor’ coloured wooden puzzles. ’drill’ in the village hall as PE was called then. Getting the belt one and only time for getting my sums wrong. Put me off maths for life ... Mrs Sharp’s great school dinners. Breadalbane’s were a shock to the palate after them !

There was a flood sometime in the late 70s when my wife, Mary, was working for Major Ramsay. When it was time for her to go home the Avenue was under deep water and was impassable by car. Just as they were standing there Hector Campbell came by with his tractor and the major asked him to give my wife a lift across, which he did. She stood on his front bucket and he raised it up above the flood and drove her across,. She said she must have looked like Mary

I’ve perhaps told this story before Mike so apologies if I am repeating myself . In the early 1960s when my mum was travelling to school on the bus, they couldn’t get up Poplar Avenue as it was flooded. So the bus carried on down the Strathtay Road to Grandtully. The Strathtay bus hadn’t turned up so the pupils just got on mum’s bus. En route from Grandtully to Aberfeldy the axle of the bus duly broke with its overloading 🥴Jock Findlay then came along in his open lorry and the pupils piled on and off he transported them to school 😄 Wonder what parents reactions would be if that happened nowadays ?🤣

Its all pretty hazy but there does not appear to be a Tennis court or Bowling green, so that dates it.

A distinct lack of trees ,and back then everybody would have had a coal fire going ,and there was still flooding ,pre global warming ha ha

Maybe wrong , can't make out the hospital where i think it should be, trying to see the cable car going to the quarry can't make it out , Church of Scotland there so that gives you a start date , 1884, seems to be only two houses on Tay Bridge Drive , can anybody make out the Monument ?erected 1887 ,l am sure there is a date on one of those houses, if the monument is there i would say this was taken early 1900s.

Just noticed in the bottom left corner it says "Art Repro Co" This must be the London Stereoscopic, Art Reproduction Company. Doesn't help date it as they are still operating but it looks a fairly early image? (Mike) www.londonstereo.com/introduction.html

I doubt if it was the 50s or maybe even the 40s as I can remember the poplars in the avenue being a fair size in the 50s.

This is definitely pre my time in Breadalbane....thinking it looks like the 30/40’s ....maybe into the 50’s ....🤔. I’ve seen it flooded in my time in Feldy ...and I remember when the trees on the Avenue were cut down ...

I've witnessed the flooding quite often .😁

Was wondering what's the building bottom left of the photo, looks like it was at the end of the Moness burn where it runs into the river, ??

No Moness Avenue or Crescent, Must have been in ‘40s. The hardwood trees are still standing where Moness avenue is now.

No pylons from the quarries from Gatehouse and the loch area above novel Aberfeldy.

There’s a wood there at the top of the hill!!

Bloody marvellous!!

After all these types of photos the council still didn't think they needed to raise the level of the roadway.
