The citadel was built here after Oliver Cromwell’s siege of Perth and was not popular. A lot of the building material was taken from inhabited buildings, graveyards and walls in town, including the Mercat Cross, and the ramparts were constructed from the turf of the Inches, the communal grazing, leisure and linen drying ground for the city. Today, you cannot see any traces of the citadel above ground as it was demolished in stages after the Restoration of the Crown in 1660. It was re-occupied during the Jacobite risings of 1715 and 1745. But why had Cromwell built the citadel in the first place? Perth was a strategically important point for conquering the country. It was the lowest crossing point of the River Tay, the furthest inland harbour, and important roads from North, West and South met here. If you controlled Perth, you could influence the rest of the country. Date Submitted Date of submission of the resource.

It was founded by King James I in 1429. The 12 monks lived like hermits in small houses with gardens and the complex would have a church. In the grounds, King James I was buried at the grand and ornate church’s high altar in 1437 after his brutal murder in Perth. There is nothing left of the buildings to see after the people of Perth ransacked the place during the Scottish Reformation, which broke out in Perth in 1559 after a sermon of John Knox in St John’s Kirk. It is said that James I’s grave is still there, but it hasn’t been found yet. The grounds of Perth’s Charterhouse, called the “Vale of Virtue”, lie on the land in front of you where today the King James VI Hospital stands (founded in 1569 by royal charter), and reached as far back as today’s Bus Station in St Leonard’s Street. The high rise tenements are called the Pomarium Flats, whose name harks back to the monastery’s apple orchards. Walk down the steps and you enter Paradise Place, and the actual location of the monastery. Perth’s Charterhouse is the only Carthusian monastery in Scotland. Their main income was, just like the other monasteries around Perth (Franciscans – the Greyfriars to the south east, Carmelites – the Whitefriars in the West, Dominicans – the Blackfriars in the North) from land and tenants in the city. They prayed for the soul of King James I, and if you were a wealthy, important or influential citizen, or a royal, you secured a burial place as close to the altar as your status and financial means allowed you to also benefit from their spiritual work. The closer you were, the better the prayers would protect you and help you to get into Heaven after you died. Date Submitted Date of submission of the resource.

You would jostle with your fellow men coming in to buy and sell if you lived locally. You might bring your sheep or cattle, your family and the dogs, of course. It would be lively and loud and smelly on a market day in Perth. You would be entertained and be able to buy necessities for your life and imported goods from England, France, Scandinavia and the Baltic. It was always a fine day at a market in Perth! Markets and Fairs in medieval Perth were a grand affair. People would be jostling to get thought the Ports into the city, they would mingle with livestock, other folk from around the city, entertainers, pickpockets, rich and poor. Markets were held regularly in town, and grand fairs would attract even more people travelling especially to Perth to be entertained, and buy and sell their produce. The city’s ports (entry gates) were around the protective and defensive city wall, with the West Port being right here, where the High Street now crosses Methven Street. Walk down the High Street and imagine it filled with people, animals, smells, shouts, laughter, and busyness. You will eventually arrive at the Mercat Cross where you can find out about the newest announcements and gossip of the day. Date Submitted Date of submission of the resource.

Look around the small vennels in the old centre of Perth, especially those that lead to the kirk, and you will see many crafts mentioned that would shape the life of medieval Perth citizens. Perth was a central focal point for trade in the country and it became rich and important through manufacturing and commerce. It was known as a local centre for trade which was strictly regulated by the guild and officers who supervised prices, the quality of the goods, weights, measures and any potential breach of monopolies. Perth’s Merchant Guild dates back to the year 1210. Especially powerful were the twelve incorporated crafts representing (in order of influence and importance) Hammermen, Baxters, Glovers, Shoemakers, Fleshers, Tailors, Websters, Wrights, Skinners, Tanners, Maltsters, and Brewers. The goods manufactured in Perth were of very high standard, and especially gloves were traded and presented at official functions as high class status symbols. At markets in Perth, agricultural products and materials such as leather, skins, woolfells and wool, corn, flax, and wood were a big part of the medieval economy and provided the raw ingredients for the craftsmen to work with. Other important materials, such as metal were readily imported and arrived mainly by ship on the River Tay. Date Submitted Date of submission of the resource.

It gave the alternative name of ‘St Johnstoun’ to Perth – and the local football club still carries this name. In this church, John Knox preached in 1559 and started the Scottish Reformation. Where you are standing right now would have been the burgh’s graveyard until 1580. 500 years of burials have raised the ground by about 0.5m, and you now need to step down into the church building. St John’s Kirk was first mentioned in 1126, and completed in 1241. In 1440, a new choir was added. It was one of the most important parish churches in Scotland. Halkerston’s Tower had a room for female prisoners until 1823. In 1559, John Knox, the Scottish reformer, preached here and planted new ideas for a reformation of the church. His congregation was inflamed and destroyed not just all of forty altars to various saints in the kirk, but also the monasteries around Perth and incited others to follow. The Scottish Reformation had begun in Perth. The church has seen many changes over the years, including being split into three congregations through internal partitions. How you see it today is due to Sir Robert Lorimer’s design of 1923, when it was restored as a memorial to the Perthshire men who fought in World War I. There are many medieval features still to be found. It is definitely worth a visit. Date Submitted Date of submission of the resource.

This is where Perth’s Mercat Cross stood in Medieval times. It was a large eight-sided rotunda with a stone pole, symbolising the town’s right to hold markets and used as focal point for public life. Proclamations, entertainment, punishments, gossip, it all happened here. Markets were held on set days and were crowded, noisy and smelly affairs. Specific markets had designated trading areas to help orientation and confining their dirt to one place. On market days, animals were brought into Perth on the hoof and slaughtered in clear sight of the buyers, offals and blood then cleaned away by porters. Fish was sold in Watergate, near the harbour; while salt was sold in Salt Vennel. You could also buy your ale, bread, vegetables and fruit, and many imported goods from England, Scandinavia and fine wines from France, all arriving by waterway and unloaded in Perth harbour at the end of the High Street. On special days throughout the churches’ calendar, fairs would be held and the merriment was enlarged by entertainment, big crowds, noisy celebrations and lots of trading from further afield than on a normal market day.

Here, just inside the burgh’s boundaries near the city wall was where the Skinners lived. Other smelly and dangerous crafts were settled just outside the wall. Leather workers lived here, and had stalls to advertise their goods. Life in medieval Perth was packed, humans lived close to their livestock, workshops were in the houses, and everyone was living within the city walls for protection and privileges. Living in the city meant a strict following of rules and many duties to keep life pleasant for everyone, including gait dichting – the cleaning of streets. Life was regulated mainly by members of the guild and the craft incorporations. Perth was always known for the quality and variety of its crafted goods, it was called a craftis toun, and people from all over Scotland descended on the city during special fair days to buy and trade gold, silver, precious stones, animals, hides, leather goods, wool, pottery, knives, soap, cloth, luxury goods, corn, the famous Tay salmon, wine, beer, spirits, meat of goat, lamb, deer, cow and pig. So you can imagine how busy and packed the place would have been! Date Submitted Date of submission of the resource.

After the Reformation, the land was used mainly by those crafts and trades that needed more space and were hazardous to life in the town, such as the skinners, tanners, and blacksmiths. This area was a thriving and lively suburb once. Before the Reformation in 1559, this area belonged to the Blackfriar’s monastery. It was also the place where the kings stayed when visiting Perth or holding parliament in town. James I stayed here in 1437 and was brutally murdered. His body was then buried in the grounds of the Carthusian monastery, a religious settlement he founded in 1429. It was where the St James VI Hospital building is today. After the Reformation, the site was used mainly for trades and crafts that needed space and worked with fire, curing, sparks and other dangerous activities for which the city was just too small and densely populated. It was also stank quite badly as animal hides were bathed in a mixture of urine and dog’s dirt before being treated with tannin from oak bark. Date Submitted Date of submission of the resource.

It transports a lot of water and it can swell and be very strong. Here at Perth is the lowest and safest crossing point before the sea. Over the centuries, the people of Perth have tried several times to build bridges over the Tay which were sadly often swept away again in strong floods. Ferrymen between here and Kinnoull on the other side of the river were busy transferring people and goods in often dangerous currents and atrocious weather conditions. Several bridges at Perth were built over time, and swept away again in times of strong and high floods. In 1209 a flood also destroyed Perth Castle which stood where the Horsecross Concert Hall is today in George Street behind you. To carry people and goods over the Tay, many ferrymen worked in Perth until the new bridge was built. It was dangerous and arduous work to steer against the strong currents and know the best routes across without losing your cargo or risking lives.

It transports a lot of water and it can swell and be very strong. Here at Perth is the lowest and safest crossing point before the sea. Over the centuries, the people of Perth have tried several times to build bridges over the Tay which were sadly often swept away again in strong floods. Ferrymen between here and Kinnoull on the other side of the river were busy transferring people and goods in often dangerous currents and atrocious weather conditions. Several bridges at Perth were built over time, and swept away again in times of strong and high floods. In 1209 a flood also destroyed Perth Castle which stood where the Horsecross Concert Hall is today in George Street behind you. To carry people and goods over the Tay, many ferrymen worked in Perth until the new bridge was built. It was dangerous and arduous work to steer against the strong currents and know the best routes across without losing your cargo or risking lives.

The ground underneath Perth is like a swamp, dense, wet, and carries no oxygen. Anything that gets buried in there is preserved well. In the 20th and 21st centuries, various archaeological excavations in the city have shown a huge amount of very well preserved objects people of medieval and other times have lost, thrown away, or that were washed away with floods. People were keen to avoid floods and just built their houses on the old rubble of previous dwellings. If you build higher, the floods will be less severe for your belongings. Because of the quality of the earth beneath Perth, many natural materials, such as leather and wood were very well preserved and show an astonishing amount of detail. This gives us today a good and very detailed view into the past, as we can imagine more easily how life would have been.

It’s a rich and influential city. It sits at important cross roads for trade in Scotland. The River Tay is still deep enough for ships to arrive, it is the lowest possible crossing point without much danger, and it is easy to reach by road from the West, the South and the North. Perth was built on commerce, royal patronage and the hard work of its citizens, manufacturing high value goods out of material from the land around. Leather was used to create the finest gloves, wool and flax to make linen and clothing, and salmon was exported wide and far. What luxury the citizens needed was imported by ship and road from across Scotland, Scandinavia, England, the Baltic states, France and the Low Countries bordering the North Sea. Life was good with wine from France, timber from the Baltic, pottery from Holland and France, and other goods from across Europe. Perth was one of the five wealthiest cities in Scotland and prestigious enough for the kings to hold parliament here 14 times in the 15th century. The citizens took pride in what they had achieved. Life was good in town – if it wasn’t for the repeated times of flooding, washing away houses and bridges, water being contaminated by cesspits, or lives being threatened by epidemics (plagues, water-borne diseases) running through the densely built up settlement. The ground was soggy, and when houses were demolished, they built new ones on top. Buried material is still found today and is in very good condition, telling us a lot about life in Medieval Perth.
