Perth Dance

16th April 1955: Before the music starts: young people group around the floor at a dance in Perth, the 'Fair City', once the capital of Scotland.. Perthshire is a renowned as a fertile agricultural area, which produces soft fruit and beef, and for its whisky and glass industries. Legend has it that the real Stone of Scone, the 'Stone of Destiny', is hidden outside the city on Moncrieff Hill and that the stone previously in England was only ever a replica. Perth is also the headquarters of the famous Black Watch regiment. Picture Post - 7671 - Make Perth The Capital - pub. 1955 (Photo by Malcolm Dunbar/Picture Post/Hulton Archive/Getty Images)
