Plaque finder

This section of the site allows much more powerful and precise searching for a particular plaque or related group of plaques. More content is being added and indexed all the time – you can check the new posts page for the latest additions.

Each entry consists of text and one or more galleries of photos. Clicking on any photo takes you to a high resolution version which can be downloaded by right-clicking in the usual way. Perth Civic Trust wishes this photographic record to be freely available for reference. The copyright of these images remains with the photographer but you are free to publish or reproduce them with an acknowledgement to Perth Civic Trust.
