About Killiecrankie
Killiecrankie
Village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland

Killiecrankie is a village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland on the River Garry. It lies at the Pass of Killiecrankie, by the A9 road which has been bypassed since 1986. The village is home to a power station forming part of the Tummel Hydro-Electric Power Scheme. Much of the riverbank is owned by the National Trust for Scotland. The nearby 10 arch railway viaduct, which runs for 109 yards (100 m) along the north-east bank of the River Garry, was built in 1863 from a design by Joseph Mitchell.

Environment Agency Flood Warning Areas

No Environment Agency flood warning area is mapped within 10km of Killiecrankie. That means the EA has not defined a warning target area here, which is not evidence the town cannot flood: warning areas exist where the EA runs a warning service, and surface-water and groundwater flooding have no warning areas at all. The EA’s register covers England only — Killiecrankie is in Scotland, where the warning service is SEPA’s, and FloodRadar publishes its areas alongside the EA’s on the flood areas index.

Recorded floods near Killiecrankie

No recorded flood outline within ~5 km of the Killiecrankie town centre means no flood was mapped here, which is not evidence none happened: the Environment Agency mapped only some floods, mapping effort rose sharply after about 2000, and surface-water flooding is largely absent from this record. The Environment Agency's Recorded Flood Outlines cover England only, and Killiecrankie is in Scotland — so an empty record here is an absence of coverage, not an absence of floods.
