Glenalmond College, Boarding school in Methven, Scotland.

The independent college occupies extensive grounds along the River Almond, featuring stone buildings that exemplify Scottish educational architecture from the 1840s.

Established in 1847 as Trinity College by William Gladstone and James Hope-Scott, the institution initially trained young men for the Scottish Episcopal Church ministry.

The college maintains a Combined Cadet Force program where students participate in military service training to develop leadership and teamwork capabilities.

Located 8 miles west of Perth, the college provides both boarding and day education options for students aged between 12 and 18 years.

The school's architecture received Category A listed status, with original designs by John Henderson and substantial modifications following an 1893 fire.
