NON TECHNICAL SUMMARY 1.1. Introduction 1.1.1. East Renfrewshire Council has published its Local Development Plan which will guide development and regeneration throughout the Authority area. 1.1.2. This Environmental Report forms part of the Strategic Environmental Assessment of the Local Development Plan. The Report highlights any adverse impacts that land use change and development, brought about by the Policies and Proposals contained within the Local Development Plan, may have on the environment. 1.1.3. The Strategic Environmental Assessment process has helped to inform the Local Development Plan and as a result its Policies are considered to have environmental focus. 1.2. Consultation Period and Contact Details for Providing Comments 1.2.1. As required under Section 16 of the Environmental Assessment (Scotland) Act 2005, copies of this report were sent to the Consultation Authorities, an advert placed in local newspapers and it was made available to view at Council Offices, libraries and on the Councils website. 1.2.2. The consultation period of this Environmental Report and the Local Development Plan ran from 6th February 2013 for a period of 12 weeks. 1.2.3. An addendum to the Environmental Report was issued in October 2013 which assessed the sites presented in the modifications to the Local Development Plan. This was also subject to its own consultation which ran for a period of 6 weeks. 1.3. Summary of Assessment Findings 1.3.1. The Local Development Plan contains a number of environmentally focused Policies and emphasis is placed on brownfield development. 1.3.2. The Plan aims to consolidate and regenerate existing urban areas, and provides measures to protect retail uses within town centres. This has positive impacts on the local economy, job creation, access by sustainable means and reduces the need to travel. 1.3.3. The Plan acknowledges potential negative impacts which may arise from the release of land in the greenbelt and provides measures to mitigate against these. The concept of master planning is one such measure. Master planning of an area enables negative impacts of individual proposal sites to be avoided mainly through design layout. 1.3.4. Policies on green infrastructure and green networks will lessen the impact that

GENERAL HISTORY SOCIAL HISTORY FAMILY HISTORY OCCUPATIONS ENVIRONMENT RELIGION MISCELLANEOUS Origins ORIGINS In prehistoric times, the natural place to settle would have been by the river Avon with its fertile holms and abundance of natural PRE-HISTORY resources. Evidence of early man can be found throughout the parish, enabling us to build a picture of how the community of Stonehouse developed over the centuries. The fact that a stone cist was found in the old kirk cemetery in 1937, confirms this site as a CASTLES place of pagan burial.

  • Scotrail's Top Ten Busiest Trains
    transport.gov.scot ScotRail’s Top Ten Busiest Trains Report May 2018 ScotRail’s top ten busiest trains Transport Scotland 1. The train counts process – introduction 1.1 The data in this Ten Busiest Trains publication has been derived from a mix of manual snapshot counts and Automated Passenger Counts (APC). Fitment of Automatic Passenger Counting (APC) equipment has been completed across 40% of the fleet, and this will allow ScotRail better to manage its train fleet efficiently going forward, as the equipment provides more frequent and accurate passenger loading data. 1.2 It is a requirement of the Franchise Agreement that the Franchisee shall undertake a minimum of four counts per year, once automated passenger counting equipment has been installed (with the exception of the Class 314 trains, where the equipment has not been fitted as they are due to go off-lease at the end of the year; therefore, manual counts are still undertaken). Previously, all passenger counts was undertaken via manual ‘snapshot’ surveys which were undertaken annually. 1.3 ScotRail’s franchise obligation is to use reasonable endeavours to allocate its train fleet and resources in the most effective way, to provide passengers with a reasonable expectation of a seat within 10 minutes of boarding a train, and to minimise any forecast overcrowding. The exception is on non-stop train journeys between Glasgow Central and Paisley Gilmour Street. This is because a journey between those two stations is served by 8 trains per hour in either direction, with a journey time of ten or eleven minutes. 1.4 The passenger carrying capacity for each service and passenger numbers are incorporated into a Train Plan which ScotRail is obliged to prepare and submit to Transport Scotland for consideration & approval, for each timetable change in May and December.

The detailed YTA Framework and Data Workbook are provided under separate cover. The YTA was developed to provide a framework to measure and monitor the performance of Scotland’s towns and town centres using a series of Key Performance Indicators. It provides a comprehensive audit of Busby with data on up to 180 KPIs across seven themes – Locality, Accessibility, Local Services, Activities + Events, Development Capacity, Tourism, and Place + Quality Impressions. The Understanding Scottish Places (USP) data platform provides a summary analysis for Busby and identifies 14 comparator towns that have similar characteristics, with the most similar being Lossiemouth, Culloden, Aviemore and Dyce1. The USP platform – www.usp.scot – describes Busby in the following general terms: Busby’s Interrelationships: Busby is an ‘interdependent town’, which means it has a medium number of assets in relation to its population.

Each profile provides indicators for a range of health outcomes (e.g. life expectancy, mortality, hospitalisation) and health determinants (e.g. smoking levels, breastfeeding, income, employment, crime, education). These profiles build on the success of both the 2004 community health profiles published by NHS Health Scotland (www.scotpho.org.uk/communityprofiles), and of the ‘Let Glasgow Flourish’ report published by GCPH in April 2006 (www.gcph.co.uk/content/view/17/34/). Whilst these sources continue to be useful, there has been recognition of the need for more up-to-date health data and for information pertaining to the new Community Health (and Care) Partnership (CH(C)P) administrative structures.

    Barrhead Church Kibera Project Issue 15 August 2012 Our Mission Statement: “The aim of this partnership is to establish a relationship between the Christian communities of Barrhead and Kibera by sharing Mission, Education, and Mutual Friendship.” On Saturday 9th June, the volunteers arrived at Bourock Parish Church, ready and willing to inflate around 1800 balloons, attaching the tickets that local people had so generously purchased. Cream Teas were served throughout the afternoon at Arthurlie Parish Church. After receiving the ‘ok’ from Air Traffic Control at Glasgow Airport, the balloons were released. 98 were found and returned, and the lucky winners notified. (Balloon Race photographs courtesy of R McKenzie) The profit stands at £2219 – a HUGE thank you to everyone who helped in any way with this event.

  • Eaglesham Cotton Mills Stuart Nisbet Introduction the Old Kirkton of Eaglesham Was Rebuilt from 1767 Onwards As a Planned Village
    RLHF Journal Vol.7 (1996) 5. Eaglesham Cotton Mills Stuart Nisbet Introduction The old Kirkton of Eaglesham was rebuilt from 1767 onwards as a planned village. Despite its rural situation, industry in the form of Cotton Spinning formed the basis of employment during the first century. Recent research has strengthened the industrial origins of Eaglesham, confirming the tradition of a second major Cotton Mill in the village. Until now there has been little data available regarding the first three decades of Cotton Spinning in Eaglesham. It was assumed that there was only ever the one Cotton Mill in the village, i.e. the mill in the centre of the Orry, which went on to be the main employer in the 19th century. The sole piece of evidence for another mill was in Robertson's Description of the Shire in 1818. Robertson made 3 claims: 1. That there were two Cotton Mills in the village. 2. Each mill had already been burnt down. 3. The mills had separate owners. Eaglesham's Mills At first glance Eaglesham appears to be a typical rural Renfrewshire Cotton Mill settlement similar, for example, to Lochwinnoch. With a 200 foot fall through the village and an expanse of waterlogged moorland above, Eaglesham would appear to have been the perfect location for a Cotton Mill. However this was not the case. Firstly, despite the almost unlimited head of water, finding level sites upon the fall proved to be very difficult. Secondly, and more importantly, the Kirkton Burn was the very last watercourse on which anyone would have conceived of building Cotton Mills.
