Perth and Kinross Heritage Trust (PKHT) was established in 1988 with the aim of conserving, enhancing and promoting the archaeological and architectural heritage of Perth and Kinross. Founded by The Gannochy Trust, Perth & Kinross Council, and Perth Civic Trust, PKHT continues to be supported by The Gannochy Trust and Perth & Kinross Council, levering additional funding from other sources for specific projects. Since 2012, a core part of our operations is through Historic Environment Scotland’s ongoing support of the Perth City Heritage Fund. The Trust achieves its objectives through the delivery of the provision of grant aid, projects, consultancy work, and a range of outreach activities.

Objectives: The Trust’s objects are: (i) to conserve, enhance, maintain and promote, for the benefit of the residents of Perth and Kinross and the public at large, the historic environment of the area in the form of archaeological sites and landscapes, and buildings and structures of historic and/or architectural interest, value or significance. (ii) to advance and promote the practical conservation of the amenity and character of the rural and urban historic built environment within Perth and Kinross. (iii) to conserve, research and promote items or areas of archaeological or industrial archaeological importance within Perth and Kinross. (iv) to further awareness of the historic environment through education about, and active voluntary involvement in, its conservation in the area of Perth and Kinross, and (v) to undertake consultancy and other work of an educational, historical, architectural or archaeological interest anywhere in the United Kingdom or elsewhere (which need not have a bearing upon its work in the area of Perth and Kinross) which advances the arts, heritage, culture or science.
