Welcome to the home page of KIRRIEMUIR HERITAGE TRUST.
The Trust was formed in November 2007 to protect, promote and develop the heritage of Kirriemuir & District in all its forms (including culture).
We believe Kirriemuir is a great place to live... with its superb scenery; excellent housing; successful schools and lively community groups.
Much of that is down to the hard work and forward-thinking of past generations.
* KHT aims to ensure that future generations will know about that, and respect it.
* KHT also aims to ensure that Kirriemuir and the Glens are, “Fit for purpose” in the 21st century.

A TALE
At the urging of their doctor, Bill and Mary moved to Kirriemuir.
After settling in, they met a neighbour who was also an older man. "Say, is this really a healthy place?"
"It sure is," the man replied.
"When I first arrived here I couldn't say one word. I had hardly any hair on my head. I didn't have the strength to walk across a room and I had to be lifted out of bed."
"That's wonderful!" said Bill. "How long have you been here?"
