Dunning Community Trust aims to help shape and improve the village of Dunning and surroundings for future generations

Dunning is an old Perthshire village about 10 miles south west of Perth, Scotland.

Situated in the shadows of the Ochil Hills, Dunning is steeped in history from the earliest days. There is an iron-age fort on the Dun Knock and a 1st century Roman camp at Kincladie. Saint Serf is said to have killed a dragon here, and there is a thorn tree planted in Jacobite times as well as a monument to Maggie Wall, burnt as a witch in 1657.
