The John McGregor Collection

John McGregor (1874–1947) a photographer, working in Strathearn, based in Muthill, was working in the early part of the 20th century but very little is known about him. We are keen to hear any information you may have on the photographer, his life or the subjects of his photographs.

In 2021, in collaboration with Muthill Village Trust, C&SM began fundraising to acquire a photograph collection of about 500 glass half plates and quarter plates. Thanks to one very generous donor, we were able to buy them within two days of the campaign’s start. We were both thrilled and relieved and now we are pressing to the next stage.

News of the ongoing fundraiser will be posted here and on social media as things develop as will details of the means to help with donations – please see the donate button to the top left.

If you know anything about the images displayed, the places or the people in them, please get in touch by writing to us using the Contact form.
