Luncarty
Luncarty (; pronounced ''Lung''-cur-tay) ) is a village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, approximately four miles north of Perth. It lies between the A9 to the west, and the River Tay to the east.
==History==
The historian Hector Boece (1465–1536), in his ''History of the Scottish People'', records that, in 990, Kenneth III of Scotland defeated the Danes near Luncarty. However, the Scottish historian John Hill Burton strongly suspected the battle of Luncarty to be an invention of Hector Boece.〔(The History of Scotland from Agricola's Invasion to the Revolution of 1688,Vol.1 ), By John Hill Burton; p.364-365, Will. Blackwood and Sons, 1867〕〔A Complete Guide to Heraldry; p.415; By Arthur Charles Fox Davies, and Graham Johnston; Published by Kessinger Publishing, 2004; ISBN 1-4179-0630-8, ISBN 978-1-4179-0630-7; (link )〕 Burton was incorrect. Walter Bower, writing in his Scotichronicon around 1440, some 87 years before Boece first published his ''Scotorum Historia'', refers to the battle briefly as follows:
:''"that remarkable battle of Luncarty, in which the Norsemen with their king were totally destroyed".'' Bower does not quote specific sources concerning the battle, but, two sentences later, he refers in a general way to ancient writings that he has consulted. The term Norsemen would include Danes.
The present village was founded in 1752 by William Sandeman, to house workers at his bleachfields.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Luncarty )〕 The village formerly had a railway station, and the Perth to Inverness railway line still runs through the village.
