Blairgowrie Community Hospital is a health facility in Perth Road, Blairgowrie and Rattray, Scotland. It is managed by NHS Tayside.
The first donation to the hospital was a legacy from Mrs Clerk-Rattray in 1882. [1] Subsequently, Mrs Macpherson of Newton Castle gifted the site and further donations were then forthcoming. [1] The facility, which was designed by L & J G Falconer, [2] opened as Blairgowrie and Rattray Districts Cottage Hospital in May 1901. [3] An additional wing was added in 1940 and, after joining the National Health Service in 1948, a GP unit was established on the site in 2014. [4]
Blairgowrie and Rattray is a twin burgh in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. Locals refer to the town as "Blair". Blairgowrie is the larger of the two former burghs which were united by an Act of Parliament in 1928 and lies on the southwest side of the River Ericht while Rattray is on the northeast side. Rattray claims to be the older and certainly Old Rattray, the area round Rattray Kirk, dates back to the 12th century. New Rattray, the area along the Boat Brae and Balmoral Road dates from 1777 when the River was spanned by the Brig o' Blair. The town lies on the north side of Strathmore at the foot of the Grampian Mountains. The west boundary is formed by the Knockie, a round grassy hill, and Craighall Gorge on the Ericht. Blairgowrie and Rattray developed over the centuries at the crossroads of several historic routes with links from the town to Perth, Coupar Angus, Alyth and Braemar. The roads to Coupar Angus and Braemar form part of General Wade's military road from Perth to Ayrshire then over the tiny bridge to the hill Fort George. The town's centrepiece is the Wellmeadow, a grassy triangle in the middle of town which hosts regular markets and outdoor entertainment.
