Two pairs of cherubs protect Perth City Hall

DAVID R. COWAN, from Crieff, writes about the Perth City Hall: “Losing the hidden esoteric knowledge of the Perth City Hall would be a disaster,” he says. “If you look at the façade – the three doors at the entrance – you can see that it is built as a triptych, a symbolic structure which can also be seen in Mayan, Hindu and Egyptian temples.

“This ancient architecture was even taken into Christianity and can be found in cathedrals worldwide, and in nearby St. John’s Kirk – there is even a decayed example in Crieff’s main cemetery.

“Also on top of the City Hall are two pairs of cherubs, protecting the doorway from evil and many triangles above the windows, without the apex in each case, possibly representing ‘the unfinished pyramid’ which, from memory, can also be seen in the curiously misshapen but beautifully crafted Dupplin Cross in Dunning church.

“A fellow researcher of earth energies, Gary Biltcliffe, in his book The Spine of Albion, writes about a ley line running through this area, down the longest part of the UK. Not quite a line, but two wide intertwining streams of energy, the one of note passing across Greyfriars burial ground in Canal Street and both St. John’s Kirk and City Hall, before travelling on to Huntingtower Castle.

“I hope that in the sad event of City Hall being demolished, the architects plan the site with esoteric care, and, as has been suggested, keep at least the front.”
