Newtyle Hill, a wooded eminence (996 feet) in Caputh parish, Perthshire, on the left side of the river Tay, 1 ½ mile E by S of Dunkeld. Its summit commands a brilliant near view of Dunkeld, Birnam, and Murtly, and fine distant views northward to the Grampians, southward to Perth. Newtyle farm around it contains two ancient standing-stones and the site of a cross erected by one of the Deans of Dunkeld to mark the spot at which pilgrims caught their first view of Dunkeld Cathedral.—Ord. Sur., sh. 48, 1868.
