Recycling area
Recycling area in the corner of a supermarket car park. The Edinburgh Road railway bridge can just be seen between the trees to the left. Only paper and garden waste can be collected from the kerbside in Perth for recycling, so areas like this one meet a real need to recycle other materials.

A wind turbine for your store
When I first saw this rotating structure I assumed it was intended to house some advertising or publicity. In fact it is a wind turbine designed to reduce the carbon footprint of the supermarket in whose car park it is located.
In connection with similar scheme at another store a company spokesman said, "We have been looking at a few sites across the UK as locations for these turbines ... ... ...it may only provide a small proportion of the total energy used in the supermarket, but this is part of a UK-wide initiative that we are committed to. We need to try to provide renewable energy at as many of our stores as possible."

The application for planning consent stated that the turbine would be capable of generating six kilowatts of electricity and have an estimated lifespan of 15 years.

Perth Harbour
Perth Harbour is strategically located at the highest navigable point of the River Tay. In medieval times, cargoes were brought into the heart of the town, but nowadays the harbour is based at Frairton, about a mile downriver, in much deeper water.
Coastal and dry bulk ships up to 90 metres in length can be accepted into Perth Harbour, day or night, carrying up to 2500 tonnes. Vessels can be received on one high tide and depart on the next.
Cargoes range from traditional agricultural related cargoes such as animal feedstuffs and fertilisers to timber, chemicals and baryte ore.
