As a team working within Perth & Kinross Council, Community Greenspace manages budgets for maintenance, repair, and enhancement of all countryside sites across the county, thus planning for current and future generations of visitors.

Why your views matter

This consultation with communities, statutory bodies (such as NatureScot), and all relevant departments within Perth & Kinross Council will contribute to a masterplan for the Den of Alyth from which a prioritised projects list is extracted.

The projects list, the masterplan, and written report with maps, constitute the overall management plan, and is a flexible tool that may change as priorities shift, designed to assist with applying for funding. Projects might include: new signage and waymarking, path works, drainage works, play area works, bench and picnic bench provision, car park and access improvements, and tree works (in the context of the Forest Plan and within the designated Sites of Special Scientific Interest.
