What is recorded here
This red commemorative plaque records: The Toll House - 1804 one of six toll houses which exacted tolls on the roads out of Crieff until abolition by the 'Roads and Bridges Act' of 1878. At noon on 15 May 1879, to mark this abolition, a shot was ceremoniously fired from a window in each of the Crieff toll houses. Recorded plaque organisation: Crieff Heritage Trail.
The Toll House, established in 1804, was one of six such structures in Crieff that collected tolls on local roads until their abolition in 1878, marking a significant shift in public road funding and access.
