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, however, restoration is being considered.[3]
