Our Hymn of Hope
Scottish Charity No. SCOO7072 No. Scottish Charity Our Hymn of Hope & (Tune: Hosanna, loud Hosanna!) e We’re looking for a Minister of Sacrament and Word; Denny Westpark One who’ll dearly love us, one who clearly loves the Lord. You’ll need a sense of humour and the meekness of a lamb, The patience of a donkey when with Harry, Dot or Tam! The hide of a rhinoceros would come in handy too When people are insistent that you hear their point of view. You’ll work like any beaver, you’ll be stronger than an ox, And you’ll listen with attention to the one who talks and talks. You’ll work with other churches that make up Falkirk West, We’re all in this together and we must do our best to care for one another and promote real unity within the Church of Jesus and the whole community. When it comes to preaching, we know you’ll do your bit; to comfort or to challenge, just as you see fit. People will respond to you, their comments will be many; And rest assured your sermon will be talked about in Denny. So what have we to offer? we thought you’d never ask. The pages of this profile describe our mammoth task. We need YOU to help us - man? woman? - we’re not fussed! We will pledge our loyalty, our love and mutual trust! www.westparkchurch.btck.co.uk Clerk: Etta Eadie t: 01324 823 962 IM: Rev Phyllis Wilson e: [email protected] t: 01324 832 257 e: [email protected] Overview of Denny “Denny is not the bonniest of places at the moment. -

This deposit is a selection made from the archives of Russel and Aitken in Falkirk. It consists of material gathered by the firm while acting as executors, trustees, or liquidators in the course of its normal legal business, and of material brought together by James Russel sen, (1787-1858), James Russel jun (d.1860), and Henry Aitken (d.ca.1900), partners in the firm, in connection with their various mining and industrial undertakings. In the former category the papers relating to the Falkirk Gas Co and its successors, the Stirlingshire Midland Junction Railway, and the whaler ‘Juno’ are the most important, while in the latter the large series of bore journals and mine plans give a clear view of the geological knowledge of central Scotland (particularly of the south of West Lothian) in the mid 19th century. Also included are miscellaneous early charters, several business account books, and the papers of Dr John Aitken FRS, the meteorologist. The general arrangement is as follows: 1. Bore journals of Henry Aitken of Darroch (ca.1860-80), numbered series: 1. Armadale and others, including Polkemmet, Bridgecastle, and Hilderston (with some discussion of the silver deposits there).

The Feudal Land Divisions of Denny and Dunipace Part 1
Calatria Summer 1995 No. 8 The Feudal Land Divisions of Denny and Dunipace Part 1 John Reid From the earliest records for Denny and Dunipace, we find that the area had three distinct divisions: Herbertshire, Temple-Denny and Torwood. Herbertshire comprised a significantly greater area than the other two and, in the later feudal period, came to be further divided with the creation of lesser estates such as Dunipace-Livingston and Little Denovan. Each of the major divisions is discussed here. As we should expect, these in turn had numerous subdivisions and they will be the subject of part 2. The Parishes of Denny and Dunipace CONTENTS (click links to read) The Ancient Barony of Dunipace or Herbertshire The Barony of Denny or Temple Denny The Barony of Torwood Falkirk Local History Society Page 1 Calatria Summer 1995 No. 8 THE ANCIENT BARONY OF DUNIPACE OR HERBERTSHIRE The Barony of Herbertshire The records of the area which we know today as the parishes of Denny and Dunipace reach no further back than the twelfth century. Then, probably all of the parish of Denny and certainly the greater part of the parish of Dunipace comprised a tract of land which in the earliest documents is named “the lands of Dunipace” and, some time later, “the barony of Dunipace” but which by the middle of the fourteenth century came to be known as the “barony of Herbertshire”. Much later, as we shall see, a significant part which lay in the parish of Denny took the name of South Herbertshire. The remainder of the parish of Denny came into the hands of one of the orders of mediaeval knights at some time prior to the fourteenth century and was known as the Barony of Denny or Temple-Denny.1 Lying in the north-west of Falkirk District, Herbertshire was the second-largest of the baronies in East Stirlingshire. -

The Glasgow TCommonwealth Games was the starting gun that sounded Scotland’s stage-left appearance onto the world stage, with people from lands far and wide flocking to our nation to see what we had to offer, and they weren’t disappointed. For two weeks our country became an international hotspot – the perfect storm of contrasting cultures and integrating nationalities. Our city’s experience during this time can only truly be illustrated through one encounter I had during the Games: I was enjoying a nice walk through a particularly rainy Glasgow Green, before finding myself face-to-face with an athlete from the Malawian team: half- draped in his own country’s flag and clearly plied plenty with some of our country’s good whiskey, he was belting out “Scotland the Brave” at the top of his lungs, whilst also managing to take some selfies with the locals. -

Education in Scotland
EDUCATION IN SCOTLAND Education in Scotland is markedly different from that in the rest of the United Kingdom - with a different curriculum, school boards to oversee school management and a General Teaching Council which has been in existence since 1965. Whilst there are many examples of successful and innovative practice in Scotland, the system is quite often not recognised as different by writers who talk about the United Kingdom education system as if it were one smooth whole. This book describes recent developments in both legislation and practice in Scotland, drawing comparisons with the English system. Chapters cover adminis tration and management, early years education provision, the curriculum in Scotland, secondary education and special educa - tional needs. Margaret Clark is Emeritus Professor of Education at the Uni versity of Birmingham. Pamela Munn is Professor of Curriculum Research at Moray House Institute of Education, Edinburgh.

The Feudal Land Divisions of East Stirlingshire
Calatria Spring 1994 No. 6 The Feudal Land Divisions of East Stirlingshire John Reid When David I returned from England to claim his crown he brought with him to Scotland a retinue of Anglo-Norman knights. He, like them, had been raised at the English court. Together, they were products of the new style of feudalism which emerged in the twelfth century. With them they brought the attitudes and expectations which were to encourage the adoption of that form of the feudal order to Scotland where, although it remained to some degree recognisably different from that in England, it evolved as essentially that which pertained throughout late mediaeval Europe. The Parishes of East Stirlingshire Falkirk Local History Society Page 1 Calatria Spring 1994 No. 6 It was a force which was to dominate Scottish society from that time until the eighteenth century when a series of revolutionary events; civil, agricultural and industrial, caused a diminuation of feudal power. It was the Jacobite risings which led to the forfeiture of many of the old families in whose hands these hereditary powers had rested, while the later upheavals of that century saw a massive movement of the people from the land with, consequently, a reduction in the authority of the land owners. Feudalism was a product of its time. It was born of the need for kings to retain their realms through military strength. They required the support of men trained in the most effective skills of warfare. These men, the king’s vassals, also required followers. It was, in effect, a power pyramid.
