Logie Mill

The remains of a medieval mill sit quietly beside the River Tay just outside Perth, and honestly, it's one of those places you'll walk past without knowing what you're looking at unless someone tells you. Logie Mill is what's left of a working grain mill that powered the local economy centuries back - a few stone foundations and fragments scattered along the riverbank that whisper of a time when water mills were the industrial heartbeat of Perthshire.

It's not going to hold your attention for hours. The site itself is modest, essentially a archaeological puzzle for anyone curious about medieval Scottish industry rather than a major visitor attraction. You'll need maybe twenty minutes to have a proper look round, and that's if you linger. But if you're staying at Perth Caravan Park or Scone Camping and Caravanning Club Site - both within striking distance - it makes a decent leg-stretch walk alongside the river.

History buffs and anyone interested in how ordinary folk lived and worked will find something here. Kids might get bored fairly quickly unless they're the type fascinated by ruins and old stone. The riverside setting is pleasant enough, and you can combine it with other walks along the Tay.

Access appears to be free and unrestricted, though the site doesn't have formal visitor facilities or clearly marked opening hours - just turn up during daylight. It's very much a case of what you see is what you get. Worth a detour if you're based nearby, but don't plan a trip around it.
