Logierait

Logierait is a village in a large parish of the same name in Highland Perth and Kinross. Logierait village lies at the confluence of the Tay and Tummel rivers, due west of Ballinluig. There are Pictish crosses in the parish church and churchyard and closeby are a memorial to the 6th Duke of Atholl built to a design by Robert Rowand Anderson in 1866, and a former railway viaduct by Joseph Mitchell (1865). For many years Logierait was the seat of the seat of justice in the regality of Atholl. Adam Ferguson (1723-1816), Professor of Natural Philosophy at Edinburgh University at the height of the Enlightenment, was the son of the minsiter of Logierait.
