Glenfarg, Perthshire / Fife / Kinross-shire

Glenfarg is a village at the point where FiFe, Perthshire and Kinross-shire meet. The name of the village was changed in the 1890s when the newly completed railway began to bring tourists to the area – and 'Glenfarg' was felt to be more appealing than 'Damhead'. The whole village is within the council area of Perth and Kinross.
