Perth Civic Trust has plans to place new blue plaques at various sites in Perth where we feel there is an unmet need. We have a number of places and people on our shortlist but we would welcome any suggestions. The usual requirement is that a person of significance was born, lived, died or was associated with a specific place in Perth. Usually some time needs to elapse after the person’s death. Plaques can also describe a significant historical event or a building which has disappeared or whose function has changed.
Do you have any suggestions? Just email us at: webmaster@perthcivictrust.org.uk
Here is a sample Perth Civic Trust blue plaque with a fictitious name. They are made of metal with raised lettering and can be 30cm across if at street level, or 40cm or more if mounted higher up.
