Dunira, a fine modern mansion in Comrie parish, Perthshire, 2¾ miles E of St Fillans, and 3 WNW of Comrie. From its wooded hill-side it commands a magnificent view of Strathearn; it was the favourite residence of that unfortunate statesman, Henry Dundas, first Viscount Melville (1742-1811); and it now is a seat of Sir Sidney James Dundas of Beechwood, who holds in Perthshire 5529 acres, valued at £2725 per annum.
