North Perth Community
The area of North Perth consists of the neighbourhoods of Letham,
Tulloch, Double Dykes, Fairfield, North Muirton and Muirton.
These communities have their own unique and individual identities,
but have agreed to come and work together to represent North
Perth.
Letham, is a suburb of the City of Perth. It
is located to the north west of the City. Its borders are the
wards of Hillyland, Ruthven Park and Wellshill.
Tulloch, meaning hill or mound, sits to the north
of Perth City. Tulloch consists of an area which follows
either side of the Crieff Road and also the area from Crieff Road
to Tulloch Road junction to the exit into Tulloch Terrace.
Double Dykes Travellers Site is situated off the
Ruthvenfield Road at the Inveralmond Industrial Estate,
Perth.
Fairfield, is bordered by Tulloch Road, Crieff

small pedestrian bridge that crosses both the Lade and the railway
line.

the Gowan's Terrace end right out to Arran Road to the boundary of
Dunkeld Road.

of Perth City Centre. The community of Muirton is bordered by
