Tour Scotland wee video of photographs of Callander, Perthshire. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Located on the River Teith, near Stirling, and often described as the gateway to the Highlands. The people of Callander were drawn into the Jacobite wars of the 17th and 18th centuries when the Duke of Perth, a Drummond whose family owed its position to James VI, declared for the deposed House of Stuart. Continued rebellions, in Callander and elsewhere, prompted the government to invest in creating a network of military roads through the Highlands, in order to increase the mobility of their troops in dealing with the Jacobite threat. Callander's position made it the obvious choice for a road. It is an interesting fact, that the road was completed just in time for the 1745 rebellion, during which the roads were of most use to the rebels.
