Nearly {{convert|1|mi|km}} to the south, beyond Shiresmill, and to the west of the Bluther Burn, stands the 17th-century laird's house of Blairhall, which was the birthplace (c.1630) of Sir William Bruce, later baronet of Balcaskie and then Kinross, and Surveyor-General to King Charles II.[3] In 2008, a further expansion of the village took place to the northwest, in an area called the Coo Park which was formerly the grounds of Comrie Castle. The park was landscaped with several parkland trees and a rigg-and-furrow system of cultivation from earlier times was evident. The house was owned by a James Anderson of Blairgowrie in the 1850s, but was demolished in the early 1960s. In the grounds there remain parkland trees, an overgrown ha-ha and the site of a curling pond.[4] EducationBlairhall has a small primary school with approximately 100 pupils altogether. It was opened in 1924 as a secondary school but became a primary school in 1945 due to a lack of suitable students.[2] Pupils from Blairhall primary continue onto Queen Anne High School in Dunfermline.[5] Notable people from Blairhall
