Green Corridor
Disused railway lines have become vital wildlife corridors, providing shelter, food, and safe passage for birds, mammals, and insects. But they also tell stories of past industry. Now a core path, the branch line that once connected Perth to Blairgowrie was a key artery of Perthshire’s textile trade. Built in the 19th century, it carried raw materials and finished goods between the mills and wider markets. Though the tracks are long gone, the old line now serves different passengers—wildlife making its own journeys through a landscape shaped by agriculture and industry.
