B935 Bridge of Earn - Forteviot
Forgandenny

The B935 is a short B-road in south Perthshire.

It starts as Station Road in Bridge of Earn, turning off the A912 (former A90) in the middle of the village. It crosses the railway line with a double bend where the station once stood, and due to a weight limit on this bridge, larger vehicles are directed via Heughfield Road to the south. The route then turns sharply south before turning west again at Kilgraston, onto a long straight which climbs steadily, heading due west. A slight kink leads onto a shorter straight, followed by a couple more kinks which bring the road into Forgandenny. All the way, the road passes between high hedges and trees hiding the large arable fields on either side. The village of Forgandenny is a rather strung-out place, with fields and woodlands breaking in between the houses. On the north side of the road this is the land of the large, private Strathallan School.

At the western end of the village, a sharp bend sends the road south-westwards for about half a mile before an even sharper bend at a junction turns it back to the north. Having climbed to a summit of around 70, the road is descending again, around a left hander onto a winding westerly route between fields. The road has a more natural feel as it wiggles down the hill into the small village of Forteviot. This is a beautiful gem, a planned model village dating from the 1920s, although little more than a large group of houses set around a green with a hall, church and school clustered close by. Beyond the village, the road has one last little wiggle, crossing the Water of May Bridge, before meeting the B934 next to a level crossing. Ahead the B934 crosses the River Earn on Forteviot Bridge and climbs to the A9, while to the left it heads off to cross the Ochil Hills.

The 1922 MOT Road List defines this route as: Junction with B934 near Forteviot - Bridge Of Earn
