The Bulletin  

“WEEKLY TO CITY”-mge27  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 76 —No. 3909  

Wednesday, January 12, 1955  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspaper  

SCOTKAND'S FINEST SHOOTING CENTRES ROUND BLAIR CASTLE  

NORTH of Pitlochry, near the confluence of the rivers Garry and Tilt,  

stands Blair Castle, the ancient family seat of the Dukes of Atholl.  

Many of Scotland’s castles have romantic settings but few are situated in more  

delightful surroundings than Blair, for the district is renowned for the wild  

beauty of its mountain scenery, to which its wooded glens and extensive  

forests add variety and charm. Nearby is Loch Moraig, small Highland  

loch which provides good trout fishing, and between the lake and the foot of  

Ben-y-gloe (3,671 feet) are the nesting places of curlews, lapwings and the  

red grouse. The curlews and lapwings arrive in April and stay until the end  

of July, while the grouse remain in the Highlands throughout the year.  

The village of Blair-Atholl has been noted as base for sportsmen lured  

by the fame of the Atholl grouse moors and deer forests, by the salmon and  

trout fishing in the Tilt and Garry, and in winter the slopes of Ben-y-gloe  

attract many skiers.  

Dating from the 13th century, Blair Castle has had an eventful history in  

the course of which it has been in turn the headquarters of Montrose and  

Dundee, and, after the latter was killed at the Battle of Killiecrankie, the  

Royalists continued to use it. Bonnie Prince Charlie spent three days at Blair  

Castle on his way south to Perth, and later it was held for the Duke of  

Cumberland.  

One of the privileges of the head of the Atholl family was to present  

white rose to the Sovereign when he or she arrived at, or passed through,  

Blair-Atholl. In Queen Victoria’s Memoirs it is recorded that white rose  

was given to her by the Duke of Atholl. Blair Castle was lent to the Queen  

during visit to the Highlands in 1843, and on that occasion she presented  

colours to the Atholl Highlanders—a gift which is usually conferred by the  

reigning Sovereign only on national Regiment. The Atholl Highlanders  

were first raised by the young Duke of Atholl in the year 1778, after being  

given authority by Parliament to raise 1000 men for the service of the State.  

The oldest part of Blair Castle, which is in the Scottish baronial style,  

is Comyns Tower, said to have been built by Red Comyn in 1269. Today  

this great mansion is open to visitors and it contains fine collection of  

arms and armour, portraits and interesting Jacobite relics.
