Inchyra  Perthshire

 

In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Inchyra like this:

Inchyra, a village and a mansion in a detached section of Kinnoull parish, SE Perthshire. The village stands on the left bank of the river Tay, 1 mile SW of Glencarse station on the Dundee and Perth section of the Caledonian, and 5 miles ESE of Perth. It has a good harbour, which admits vessels of considerable burden, and a ferry communicating with Fingask in Rhynd parish. Inchyra House, ¾ mile N by E of the village, is a handsome edifice in the Grecian style, with finely wooded grounds.—Ord. Sur., sh. 48, 1868.
