Community News and Information

This community website brings you information and news on Abernyte and
area.

Set in the Carse of Gowrie in east central Scotland, this area is worth a visit if you have never been and you will be slow to leave once you do!

Abernyte lies in the hills to the north of the Carse of Gowrie. The Carse is a fertile strip of land between Dundee and Perth and between the River Tay in the south and the Sidlaw hills to the north. Sheltered from the cold north winds, the incredibly rich farm land has shaped the communities both in the Carse and nearby, with agriculture and in particular the rearing of world renowned livestock, soft fruit and potatoes.

In the meantime please follow the navigation on the top and left of this page and find out more.

Abernyte is twinned with Fléac, in the Charente area of France. You can learn more of Fléac by "peeling away" the top right hand corner of this page and clicking to view their website.

Inchture Community Sport Complex

INCHTURE COMMUNITY SPORTS COMPLEX

~ Bringing Sport Home ~

A proposal to build an Inchture Community Sports Complex was recently submitted to the Community Fund Committee (including members of Perth & Kinross Council). Realising the benefits of such a facility in terms of health, fitness and community spirit amongst others, it was unanimously decided that this venture be given full support to be taken forward to the next stage.

YOUR VIEWS ARE REALLY IMPORTANT

Now, we need YOUR support. We are therefore conducting a survey to establish what kind of leisure activities would best serve our community. Over the next few days, a few of us will be out and about asking you about your views in relation to this and we would greatly appreciate your time and feedback. If we do not manage to speak to you personally, please drop into the Inchture Hotel or Post Office and ask for a questionnaire to fill out yourself. Special posting boxes are available in both locations so that you can post them back at your convenience.

The closing date for submitting questionnaires is

Friday 18th December 2009
