The Beech Hedge of Meikleour near Blairgowrie, Scotland: A Historical Monument of Nature and Agriculture This photograph, taken in the circa 1930s, showcases the legendary Beech Hedge of Meikleour near Blairgowrie, Scotland. Planted in the year 1745, this natural wonder stands tall and proud, reaching a remarkable height of approximately 37 metres at its highest point. The hedge stretches for almost 180 metres in length, making it one of the most famous and longest living hedges in the world. The Beech Hedge is a testament to the rich history of Scotland's agricultural heritage and the dedication of its people. The hedge was meticulously crafted by the local farmers and labourers of the time, using only beech saplings and their own hands. Over the centuries, it has become a symbol of the region's resilience and the enduring bond between the people and the land. The hedge serves not only as a stunning roadside attraction but also as a functional barrier, separating the farmland from the public road. It provides shelter and protection for the livestock that graze in the fields beyond, with the shepherd and his flock often seen in the background of this photograph. The shepherd, with his trusty dog by his side, oversees the peaceful scene, ensuring the safety and wellbeing of his herd. The Beech Hedge of Meikleour is a true marvel of nature and human ingenuity. It is a living testament to the past, a reminder of the rich history of Scotland's agricultural heritage, and a source of pride for the people of Blairgowrie and beyond. To this day, the hedge is meticulously maintained, with the pruning process taking four men approximately six weeks every ten years to complete.
