Williamson Hall, Abernethy
Williamson Hall is Abernethy's village hall. It has a number of regular users as well as being available to hire for parties or events.
We had a Spudding Lovely afternoon up at the Hall for the Museum of Abernethy’s Spudfest!![]()
We reckon over 120 of you popped by to say hello, play Tattie-tastic games and eat food. Huge big thanks to Branston Ltd and @Tayside Contracts for the donations of food and spuds and to @66th Perthshire Cubs and Scouts for running the BBQ and activities.![]()
Guess the number of spuds in the bucket was won by Rachel Battliana and the high scores for “Splat the Tat” are attached. ![]()
Please don’t forget that the hall is available to hire for events, parties and more. It’s run by a voluntary committee for the community and depends on hire fees to stay open. You can find out more at www.Williamsonhall.org.uk

Abernethy Hill Race times 2026![]()
As you are aware we had a wee issues with timing for a few of you. Very grateful for all your patience and for all the help from so many of you with photos, watch times and stories of who was in front or behind or you were high fiving. We just wanted to get it as near perfect as we could. ![]()
EDITED 1600 15/06. Sorted one more error with regards Ross Thomson that folk had mentioned in the first round but I misinterpreted. Gents may have dropped a place but times are unchanged except for Ross ![]()
EDITED 23.06 08/06. OK. We have had a couple of major corrections and have updated the sheets below accordingly. Oscar and Arlo had somehow dropped positions in their category. This is now sorted. We had a photo that suggested George Illingworth was further back than suggested - we clearly misidentified him! And we have also somehow missed Tyler McKinnie entirely who was 4th in his category which means some M12 boys may have shuffle back a place. ![]()
We are bound to have made a couple of errors (and probably a few typos on names!) and happy to correct and adjust as necessary. Very happy to say, as we now have this complete, we have the finishers certificates done for everyone to pin to their fridge too. These will go into the school tomorrow and hopefully they can get them out to everyone. For the kids that aren't at the primary and all the adults I will put them intoThe Abernethy Nook Nook and you can drop by and collect from a folder in there (can you give it a few days if you are collecting for kids not at Abernethy Primary as I am putting all the under 12's certs there as I'm not 100% sure who is and isn't at Abernethy Primary!).![]()
Also attached is the records for you all to train for and aim for 2027![]()
Finally a few admin things.
1. We will get the race report out in the next couple of weeks and this will also go into the next Crier too.
2. We'd also like your opinions on the race (good and bad) and will be putting out a brief questionnaire too but also feel free to email the hall (williamsonhallabernethy@gmail.com) before then
3. The race has always been a community event and it used to sit with the fete. These events both aimed to raise funds for the Williamson Hall. The hall is an amazing facility within the village and if you need it for any event please do, as using it supports it!
4. Currently aiming for the Sunday the 13th of June 2027, 1300 for next year so book that out in your diary please
