Rumbling Bridge

The River Devon valley near the village of Rumbling Bridge

Rumbling Bridge is a small village built on both sides of a gorge of the River Devon, which formed the boundary between the historic counties of Perthshire and Kinross-shire and is now within the combined Perth and Kinross council area, Scotland, where the A823 leaves the A977.[1] It lies roughly one mile (1.5 kilometres) equidistant from Muckhart to its north, Crook of Devon to its east and Powmill to its south. Comprising only a few scattered houses until the mid-20th century, most property in the village dates from the 1970s onwards.

The village is named after an unusual double bridge, which gives off a distinctive rumbling reverberation at lower levels.
