Auchterarder and District Local History Association
Our local history association was founded in 1987 and promotes an interest in the history and heritage of Auchterarder and the surrounding district across South Perthshire. The Society organises a regular programme of talks on a variety of historical and heritage topics, occasional special events including guided tours and locally based projects. We also support the work of other local heritage and community otrganisations. You can find out about our forthcoming programme of events from this site or local notices. Most of our talks are held in the Aytoun Hall on the Auchterarder High Street between the Autumn and Spring. The Association has produced occasional books and other publications. We always welcome new members - everyone who wants to learn more about the local history and our fascinating past.
