  • Annual Shetland Pony Sale – Lerwick 2011
    ANNUAL SHETLAND PONY SALE – LERWICK 2011 Shetland’s annual show and sale of Shetland Ponies was held on Thursday 6th and Friday 7th October 2011 at the Shetland Rural Centre, Lerwick. Entries for the sale were down on previous years with 133 ponies entered in this year’s catalogue. In particular there were fewer colt foals and fillies entered than usual meaning that the majority of ponies offered for sale were filly foals. Top price at the sale went to Mrs L J Burgess for her standard piebald filly foal, Robin’s Brae Pippa by HRE Fetlar, which realised 600 gns to A A Robertson, Walls, Shetland. HRE Fetlar achieved a gold award in the Pony Breeders of Shetland Association Shetland Pony Evaluation Scheme. The champion filly foal from the previous day’s show, Mrs M Inkster’s standard black filly, Laurenlea Louise by Birchwood Pippin, sold at 475 gns to Miss P J J Gear, Foula. Champion colt foal Niko of Kirkatown by Loanin Cleon, from Mr D A Laurenson, Haroldswick sold for 10 gns to Claire Smith, Punds, Sandwick. Regrettably, demand and prices in general were poor and some ponies passed through the ring unsold. Local sales accounted for a good proportion of trade as did the support of the regular buyers that make the annual trip from mainland UK to attend the sale each year. The show of foals on Thursday evening was judged by Mr Holder Firth, Eastaben, Orkney and his prizewinners and the prices that they realised, if sold, were as follows: Standard Black Filly Foals Gns 1st Laurenlea Louise Mrs M Inkster, Haroldswick, Unst 475 2nd Robin’s

  • TINGWALL: the SIGNIFICANCE of the NAME Gillian Fellows-Jensen
    TINGWALL: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE NAME Gillian Fellows-Jensen Introduction: thing and ting1 In present-day English the word thing means 'an entity of any kind', concrete or abstract, as in the pronouns anything, something or nothing. It can even be used as a term of endearment, at least to those not in a position to remonstrate, for example Alice in Wonderland, into whose arm the Duchess tucked her arm affectionately, saying 'You can't think how glad I am to see you again, you dear old thing!' In the modem Scandinavian languages, too, the cognate word ting has the same all-embracing kind of meaning and is found in pronouns such as Danish nogenting 'anything' and ingenting 'nothing'. When used of a person, however, it is generally in a derogatory sense, referring mainly to women who are old, ugly or loose-living or perhaps all three at once (ODS s.v. ting). As a place-name specific or generic, it is clear that thing must have a concrete significance. There are a number of field-names recorded in Middle English and early Modern English sources in which it is compounded with a personal name or a term denoting a human-being and seems to have the sense 'possession'. The earliest example I have noted is Aynoifesthyng 1356 in Ash in Surrey (Gover et al. 1933: 270) but the vast majority of occurrences date from the 15th to the l 7th centuries. In Old English and the other early Germanic languages, however, the word thing and its cognates, which were all of neuter gender, had the meaning 'assembly, meeting' and it is from this meaning that the modern, more general meaning has developed.

  • The Story of Noss National Nature Reserve (2Nd Edition)
    The Story of Noss National Nature Reserve (2nd Edition) For further information on Noss NNR please contact: The Reserve Manager, Scottish Natural Heritage Ground Floor, Stewart Building Alexandra Wharf Lerwick Shetland ZE1 0LL Tel: 01595 693345 Email: [email protected] The Story of Noss National Nature Reserve The Story of Noss National Nature Reserve Foreword Noss is just one of the many islands that make up the archipelago of Shetland, the most northerly part of the British Isles, but it is a very special one. Lying on the same latitude as the southern tip of Greenland, Noss is one of the most accessible of the internationally important seabird colonies of the North Atlantic. Noss owes its wildlife interest to the shaping of its coastline, from ancient origins to more recent erosion that has resulted in spectacular cliffs which are on the threshold of the rich and productive North Sea. Through a management agreement with the owner, the Gardie Trust, it has been a National Nature Reserve since 1955. Noss is one of more than forty-five National Nature Reserves (NNRs) in Scotland. Scotland's NNRs are special places for nature, where some of the best examples of Scotland’s wildlife are managed. Every NNR is carefully managed for both nature and people, giving visitors the opportunity to experience and enjoy our rich natural heritage. Noss is a renowned seabird island and a priority destination for visitors to Shetland. This Reserve Story contains background information about the Reserve, describing its wildlife interest, land use history and management since it became a Reserve.

  • An Old Find from Shetland Re-Interpreted | 119 Doi
    Proc Soc AntiqANOTHER Scot 147 PICTISH (2017), 119–126 CROSS-OF-ARCS: AN OLD FIND FROM SHETLAND RE-INTERPRETED | 119 DOI: https://doi.org/10.9750/PSAS.147.1238 Another Pictish cross-of-arcs: an old find from Shetland re-interpreted Anna Ritchie1 ABSTRACT A fragment of carved stone known as ‘Lerwick’ (NMS X.IB.19) is argued to have come, most probably, from the Pictish levels at Jarlshof, Dunrossness, Shetland, sometime before June 1861. The stone bears part of a Pictish crescent symbol on one side and part of a cross-of-arcs embellished with decorated lentoid forms on the other. The symbol-bearing cross-slab from which the fragment comes probably dates to the 7th century and may have stood in or near a churchyard at Jarlshof. It is compared with the cross-slabs from Papil and Bressay and with fragments of similar Shetland stones, and its place in the development of the cross-of-arcs is discussed. In the collections of National Museums Scotland extant. At the time of the sale in 1882, Alexander is a small fragment of a Pictish carved stone for Cunningham Hay wrote to John Alexander Smith which the given provenance is simply ‘Lerwick at the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland: ‘We Museum’.
