Crieff sits where the Highlands meet the Lowlands, and for much of the 18th century that position made it one of the busiest cattle markets in Scotland.
A natural meeting point on the drove roads
Crieff's spot on the Highland Boundary Fault made it a natural gathering point for drovers bringing cattle south. Every October, the town's Tryst drew Highland cattlemen from across Scotland, with up to 30,000 beasts arriving on foot to be sold in a single season.
A boomtown, and briefly one of Scotland's financial centres
The scale of trade passing through turned Crieff into one of the main financial centres in Scotland by the mid-18th century, and the market's reputation for hard dealing (and harder drinking afterwards) spread across Europe.
Sweets still arrive the same way as everywhere else
