Perth & Kinross Council Archive
Interested in finding out about your house, your community or your family? Do you have a history project or essay to do? Or perhaps you need to check a Council decision? With records dating back over eight hundred years, the Archive is where you can research the people and places of Perthshire and Kinross-shire.
The Archive looks after records that have been created by Perth and Kinross Council and its predecessors. We also look after community collections, those that have been created by local families, individuals, estates, societies, communities, organisations and businesses.
Browse these pages to find out about the Archive, about the collections and how you can use them. Find out how to become a Friend of the Archive and how you can deposit your own records for posterity. If you are part of a community interested in creating your own archive, then we can help
