North Inch

North Inch is a large public park in Perth, Scotland, that spreads along the River Tay and offers walking paths, green areas, and sports facilities. The space includes dedicated zones for children's play, golf, cricket, and cycling, distributed across its grounds.

The ground became the site of a clan battle in 1396 when warriors faced off under the king's watch, an event that left a deep mark on local memory. Over time the space transformed into a place for leisure and remembrance, eventually hosting monuments tied to major historical moments.

The space carries a name rooted in Perth's geography and serves as a gathering place for people from all walks of life. The monuments scattered throughout show how the community marks important moments and keeps memories alive.

The park can be accessed from multiple entry points depending on where you approach from, making it easy to find a starting point that suits you. Visit during dry weather for the best experience on the paths, as wet conditions can make some routes muddy and harder to walk.

Golf was played here as far back as the early 1500s, making this one of Scotland's oldest recorded locations for the sport. Visitors walking through the park are rarely aware of this early sporting connection that links them to centuries of recreational history.
