Glasgow Theses Service http://theses.gla.ac.uk/ [email protected] An analysis of toponyms and toponymic patterns in eight parishes of the upper Kelvin basin Peter John Drummond M.A. (Hons), M.Sc. Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Humanities College of Arts University of Glasgow © Peter Drummond February 2014 2 Abstract This thesis examines a small but unfashionable area of Scotland, invisible to tourist guidebooks, heavily urbanised, and whose towns have won environmental ‘Carbuncle awards’ from the Scottish media. Yet it is deep in Gaelic and Scots place-names which reveal a landscape that past inhabitants perceived to be a green and relatively pleasant land, if perhaps not flowing with milk and honey. Part Three belies its numeration, in that it is the core of the study, examining in detail the place-names of eight (modern) parishes, listing old forms and attempting a sound etymology for each.

  • Colinhill Grange STRATHAVEN
    Colinhill Grange STRATHAVEN A distinctive collection of 4, 5 and 6 bedroom detached family homes A wonderful place to call home Colinhill Grange is a distinctive collection of detached family homes set within the commuter town of Strathaven - always a popular location, not least due to nearby Strathaven Academy’s excellent reputation. Sitting on the south-western edge of the town and bounded to the north by farmland, Stewart Milne Homes’ designs for Colinhill Grange have been inspired by the rural nature of its gentle south-facing slopes, affording long views over the rolling landscape and mature trees within the site. When entering Stewart Milne Homes’ developments the ‘sense of arrival’ should always feel very special, especially important at Colinhill Grange as its location creates a new gateway from the west into this popular market town. The properties are all set well back from the road, creating a generous expanse of landscape to welcome you at the entrance and placing the new homes further up the slope, creating fantastic views over countryside to the south. Within the development, historic landscape and new planting combine to create a fantastic living environment. Mature trees are being retained within the central Village Green, connecting the new residential areas to the countryside. We consider it essential that each home has a defined public/ private boundary, so whilst new hedges will form a unified street, the wide selection of house styles, materials and varied alignment of the homes will create a true sense of the individual. You will be as proud to live at Colinhill Grange as we are creating it.
