In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Tummel like this:
Tummel, river and loch, Perthshire; the river issues from the E. end of Loch Rannoch, and flows 29 miles E. and SE. to a confluence with the Tay near Ballinluig Junction; the loch is formed by an expansion (2¾ miles long) of the river, 7½ miles NW. of Pitlochry; 3 miles NW. of Pitlochry are the Falls of Tummel (20 ft.).
Tummel is now part of PERTH AND KINROSS Council. Click here for graphs and data of how PERTH AND KINROSS has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Tummel itself, go to Statistics.
