Property for Sale in the Bridge of Earn Area

Looking for property for sale in Bridge of Earn? If so we thought it may help to know a bit about the Bridge of Earn area!

Bridge of Earn is a small town (till recently a village) in Perthshire, Scotland. Often referred to simply as 'The Brig' (Scots for 'bridge') by its inhabitants. As the name suggests, the village grew up on the south bank of an important crossing of the river Earn, whose stone bridge existed from at least the early 14th century, when it is recorded to have been repaired by order of King Robert I of Scotland (1306-1329). Substantial remains of the medieval bridge (rendered redundant by a replacement, still in use, slightly further upstream in 1821-22) survived into the 1970s, when almost all the stonework was demolished, for (allegedly) being in a dangerously ruinous condition. This ancient bridge was a major landmark on the road between Edinburgh and Perth for several centuries. The village's oldest houses are to be found lining the road (Back Street/Old Edinburgh Road) leading south from the site of the demolished bridge. Among them are some with 18th century datestones.

Bridge of Earn, and the formerly neighbouring but now conjoined village of Kintillo, have expanded out of all recognition since the 1960s, with hundreds of new homes being built. Many more - in fact an entire new settlement called Oudenarde - is currently being built on the site of the large former hospital to the east of the old village. Bridge of Earn's proximity to Perth, and convenient transport links to Edinburgh and Dundee, make it a desirable 'dormitory' town, though its railway station was closed following the Beeching reforms of the 1960s.
