Item No. 4 SCOTTISH BORDERS COUNCIL PLANNING AND BUILDING STANDARDS COMMITTEE MINUTE of MEETING of the PLANNING AND BUILDING STANDARDS COMMITTEE held in the Council Headquarters, Newtown St. Boswells on 2 September 2013 at 10 a.m. ------------------ Present: - Councillors A. Nicol (Chairman), J. Brown, J. Campbell, A. Cranston, V. Davidson, J. Fullarton, I. Gillespie, D. Moffat. S. Mountford, B. White. Apology:- Councillor S. Bell. In Attendance:- Development Standards Manager, Major Applications, Review and Enforcement Manager, Principal Roads Planning Officer, Managing Solicitor – Commercial Services, Democratic Services Team Leader, Democratic Services Officer (Mrs F Henderson). MINUTE 1. There had been circulated copies of the Minute of the Meeting of 5 August 2013. DECISION APPROVED for signature by the Chairman. BUILT HERITAGE AND DESIGN 2. With reference to paragraph 2 of the Minute of 3 June 2013, the Principal Officer (Built Heritage and Design), Mr Mark Douglas was present at the meeting to provide Members with further information with regard to the remit of the Built Heritage and Design section. It was explained that the service was primarily charged with the protection, enhancement and promotion (PEP) of the considerable built and natural heritage assets of the Scottish Borders together with integrated countryside access. There was 1 FTE Specialist (Architect/Planner) and the service was divided into three areas: Protect - Maintain and Develop the Listed Building Records as part of the HER (Historic Environment Record); Specialist advice to the planning process; Specialist advice on council properties; Enhance - Develop and implement major heritage led regeneration projects; Maintain and develop Buildings at Risk database and encourage re-use of buildings and Promote - Co-ordinate Doors Open Day in the Scottish Borders and Co-ordinate biennial Scottish Borders Design Awards. The listed Building categories were explained and Members were advised that there were approximately 47,000 Listed Buildings in Scotland as a whole, with some 3,022 listed Buildings within Scottish Borders. In comparing List Buildings with other Local Authorities, Scottish Borders was rated 6th and in terms of population the Borders were ranked 2nd in Scotland. There were approximately 650 conservation areas within Scotland and 43 conservation areas in the Scottish Borders. 3. In terms of specialist planning advice, there were typically 180-200 formal consultations a year and 100-150 informal or pre-application applications. Internal consultations on works to Listed Buildings, development in Conservation Areas and design issues, for example one-off new build was given and advice would be given on the extent of a listing, in particular “curtilage” and the need for LBC. Scottish Borders Council had both a “Joint Working Agreement” and an approved “Removal of Duty to Notify” scheme in operation, since 2010 because the council had an appropriately qualified and experienced officer in post – removing the need to consult Historic Scotland on most applications for category B listed buildings – in 2012-13 this resulted in only 11 of 61 applications being referred to Edinburgh. Advice was sought from the Section on Windfarms and the setting of heritage assets and Input into SPGs and Planning Briefs for specific sites. 1 Item No. 4 MEMBER Councillor Ballantyne joined the meeting during the above presentation. DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST 4. Councillors Davidson declared a non pecuniary interest in terms of Section 5 of the Councillors Code of Conduct in respect of planning application 13/00786/FUL and Councillor Cranston in respect of planning application 13/00780/FUL and left the meeting during their consideration.

I November 1914 V SELECTIONS FROM THE RECORDS OF THE REGALITY OF MELROSE 1605-1661 Edited from the Original Volumes in the Register House, Edinburgh, and in the hands of Mr. James Curle, by CHARLES S. ROMANES, C.A. VOLUME I EDINBURGH Printed at the University Press by T. and A. Constable for the Scottish History Society 1914 C O N T E N T S INTRODUCTION . RECORDS OF THE REGALITY COURT OF MELROSE INTRODUCTION The Records of the Regality Court of Melrose dealt with in these volumes bring before us the operation of the system of heritable jurisdiction in Scotland at a time when its powers were waning. Little or no trace has come down to us of the earlier proceedings of the Court in which the Abbot, doubtless invested with larger powers, dealt with the temporal affairs of the Monastery, but the system of government which is illustrated in these pages is one which ran its course through many centuries, and its traces are not yet obliterated in Scotland. It is therefore appropriate that we should give a brief intro- ductory survey of its origin and its gradual development down to its practical extinction in 1747. Towards the end of the third century of our era we note the earliest movement into the Roman Empire of these bands of invaders of northern or eastern origin, whose incursions grew in frequency and magnitude as the foundations of the older civilisation decayed, until they not only overwhelmed Italy, but, gradually moving across central Europe, obtained a hold on Britain.

DESCRIPTION Allanton is located just over 7 miles from Duns and just under 10 miles from Berwick-upon-Tweed. The population of Allanton in the 2001 Census was 86. The village is located within the Eastern Strategic Development Area (SDA) as defined by the SESplan. PLACE MAKING CONSIDERATIONS Allanton is located above the riverbanks of the Blackadder Water and Whiteadder Water which meet just north of the village. The character of Allanton is largely defined by the fact that it developed as an estate village of Blackadder House; splay fronted lodges display the old entrance and the village has developed around them in a linear fashion along the road.

Cover © 2005 from a painting by Margaret Peach. & Maps Walter Scott’s Kelso Fifteen summers in the Borders Scott and Kelso, 1773–1827 The Kelso inheritance which Scott sold The Border Minstrelsy connection Scott’s friends and relations & the Ballantyne Family The destruction of Scott’s memories KELSO & DISTRICT AMENITY SOCIETY Text & photographs by David Kilpatrick Cover & illustrations by Margaret Peach IR WALTER SCOTT’s connection with Kelso is more important than popular histories and guide books lead you to believe. SScott’s signature can be found on the deeds of properties along the Mayfield, Hempsford and Rosebank river frontage, in transactions from the late 1790s to the early 1800s. Scott’s letters and journal, and the biography written by his son-in-law John Gibson Lockhart, contain all the information we need to learn about Scott’s family links with Kelso. Visiting the Borders, you might believe that Scott ‘belongs’ entirely to Galashiels, Melrose and Selkirk. His connection with Kelso has been played down for almost 200 years. Kelso’s Scott is the young, brilliant, genuinely unknown Walter who discovered Border ballads and wrote the Minstrelsy, not the ‘Great Unknown’ literary baronet who exhausted his phenomenal energy 30 years later saving Abbotsford from ruin. Guide books often say that Scott spent a single summer convalescing in the town, or limit references to his stays at Sandyknowe Farm near Smailholm Tower. The impression given is of a brief acquaintance in childhood.

Resilient Communities 1.1 What is a Resilient Community? Resilient Communities is an initiative supported by local, scottish, and the UK Governments, the principles of which are, communities and individuals harnessing and developing local response and expertise to help themselves during an emergency in a way that complements the response of the emergency responders. Emergencies happen, and these can be severe weather, floods, fires, or major incidents involving transport etc. Preparing your community and your family for these types of events will make it easier to recover following the impact of an emergency. Being aware of the risks that you as a community or family may encounter, and who within your community might be able to assist you, could make your community better prepared to cope with an emergency. Local emergency responders will always have to prioritise those in greatest need during an emergency, especially where life is in danger.
