For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Description An account of the resource Abernethy is a village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, situated 8 mi south-east of Perth. It has one of Scotland's two surviving Irish-style round towers. The round tower is approx. 22 metres high and has an internal diameter of 2.515 metres. The exterior diameter is 4.648 metres near the base, and 4.267 metres at the top. Today there is a Pictish carved stone at the base of the tower, but this is not the stone’s original location. (The stone was dug out of the foundations of a local house. The tower is thought to date from the eleventh century, but may incorporate the foundations of an earlier structure. The round tower is thought to relate to a Culdee monastery. We are not sure at what date the monastery was founded.
