Powick Bridge
Cold, sunny and windy with great view of the floods!

I could have spent the whole day here and was sorry I couldn’t. I took time to wander off the beaten track through the moor and into bog. Marvelled at the wild flowers now growing there peacefully and sat and ate blackberries while thinking of all the hundreds of poor sods (mostly kids) who were slaughtered here. It was a somewhat spiritual experience for me. This is somewhere everyone should go when in Scotland.

Great the bridge goes onto the new footbridge over the main carriage way, pity the access between bridges is prone to flooding.

Discover the true story of the 1745 Rising, from both the Jacobite and Government perspectives, in the museum, where weapons and unique artifacts are displayed. Also, panoramic views from the roof garden, see the restored 18th-century Leanach Cottage and spot Highland cows grazing on the battlefield. The heather is blooming in the field which is beautiful!

The guided tours are brilliant and recommended. There's an eerie feel to the place. So many lives lost believing in their cause on both sides. To walk past the grave sites and the stones with the clan names was a humbling experience.Well worth the visit.

Impressive welcome centre with a range of visual and vocal explaining of what happened with background. I was able to gain access to the museum and battlefield for me and a guest with my National Trust card. The guide James on the battlefield was very good.

We conducted a random search on Google Maps to find a suitable location for swimming, which led us to Powick Bridge. I highly recommend this place; it surpassed my expectations and turned out to be an amazing spot. The 26-mile journey to reach here was truly worthwhile.

It's a must do and well worth the drive. The indoor visitor center was well laid-out & the battlefield is flat with very walkable paths. The guided battlefield tour is only 40min.
