Tibbermore is a small village situated about 4 miles west of Perth, Scotland. Its parish extends to Ruthven [1]however the church building is now only used occasionally for weddings and funerals.
Previously known as Tippermuir, it was the site of a not inconsiderable battle between the Duke of Montrose and an army of Covenanters [2].
The church building is in a poor state of repair but restoration is being considered see link [3]
