  • The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, C.1164-C.1560
    1 The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560 Victoria Anne Hodgson University of Stirling Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2016 2 3 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the Cistercian abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560, and its place within Scottish society. The subject of medieval monasticism in Scotland has received limited scholarly attention and Coupar itself has been almost completely overlooked, despite the fact that the abbey possesses one of the best sets of surviving sources of any Scottish religious house. Moreover, in recent years, long-held assumptions about the Cistercian Order have been challenged and the validity of Order-wide generalisations disputed. Historians have therefore highlighted the importance of dedicated studies of individual houses and the need to incorporate the experience of abbeys on the European ‘periphery’ into the overall narrative. This thesis considers the history of Coupar in terms of three broadly thematic areas. The first chapter focuses on the nature of the abbey’s landholding and prosecution of resources, as well as the monks’ burghal presence and involvement in trade. The second investigates the ways in which the house interacted with wider society outside of its role as landowner, particularly within the context of lay piety, patronage and its intercessory function. The final chapter is concerned with a more strictly ecclesiastical setting and is divided into two parts. The first considers the abbey within the configuration of the Scottish secular church with regards to parishes, churches and chapels. The second investigates the strength of Cistercian networks, both domestic and international.

  • Tay Estuary Rail Study
    TAY ESTUARY RAIL STUDY Planning Objectives and Appraisal Framework Working Paper A October 2002 Prepared for: Prepared by: Dundee City Council Steer Davies Gleave Tayside House Reception House Crichton Street Lansdowne Crescent DUNDEE Edinburgh DD1 3RB EH12 5EH [t] +(44) 131 535 1101 [i] www.steerdaviesgleave.com Planning Objectives and Appraisal Framework Introduction 1.1 Great emphasis is placed in STAG (Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance) on the derivation of planning objectives to support any transport planning exercise. There are many reasons for devoting proper attention to planning objectives but they can be summarised as follows: with properly drafted planning objectives, the planning organisation can be much more confident that the proposals it produces will actually deliver the desired changes. 1.2 A brief note was circulated to Steering Group members last month in which a draft set of planning objectives was proposed. At that point, the objectives had been drawn up on the basis of the workshop held in Dundee on August 30th. Since then, further information has been gleaned from the on-train surveys and focus groups conducted during September. Comments were also received from Steering Group members on the draft objectives. This note takes those various inputs into account. 1.3 The purposes of this note are to provide revised draft planning objectives and to establish the foundations of the appraisal framework which will be used to assess options later in the study. Consultation details are attached to this working paper. Planning objectives Planning objective (PO) 1 – accessibility 1.4 The strongest message from all our information-gathering was that, at present, rail does not facilitate as many desired journeys as it might.
