Aberfeldy is a small town built on the south side of the River Tay which is the United Kingdom’s longest river. The name Aberfeldy is derived from Abair Pheallaig ( from the mouth of the Pheallaig Burn) History The war of the Jacobites took place between 1715 and 1745 and the military roads of General Wade reached the area, and a bridge was designed and built by William Adam and opened in 1733 to cross the River Tay named Wades Bridge.
