  • Dunblane Cathedral
    Property in Care no: 126 Designations: Scheduled Monument (SM90109), Listed Building (LB26361) Taken into State care: 1889 (Ownership) Last reviewed: 2011 HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT SCOTLAND STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE DUNBLANE CATHEDRAL We continually revise our Statements of Significance, so they may vary in length, format and level of detail. While every effort is made to keep them up to date, they should not be considered a definitive or final assessment of our properties. Historic Environment Scotland – Scottish Charity No. SC045925 Principal Office: Longmore House, Salisbury Place, Edinburgh EH9 1SH DUNBLANE CATHEDRAL SYNOPSIS Dunblane, on the east bank of the Allan Water and possibly named after St Blane (died c.590), is believed to have been a religious centre by the 9th century. In the 12th century the bishopric was re-established and a stone cathedral church built. Comprehensive rebuilding took place after 1237, and by the 1300s the cathedral comprised an aisled nave, incorporating the original tower, an aisle-less chancel and an adjoining north range housing sacristy, chapter house and treasury. After the Protestant Reformation (1560), parochial worship was relocated to the chancel. The neglected nave fast fell into ruin. The chancel and north range were restored by James Gillespie Graham in 1816-19. Major restoration of the nave was undertaken in 1889-93 to a design by Robert Rowand Anderson. Although the cathedral is in state care, it continues as a place of worship by the Church of Scotland. Among the fine furnishings are rare late medieval canopied stalls, considered amongst the finest in Scotland. CHARACTER OF THE MONUMENT Historical Overview: 6th century AD - St Blane (Blàthan), according to tradition, is born on Bute and buried at Kingarth monastery there (St Blane's).

A collection consisting of sketches and drawings by Lieut.-General G.H. Hutton, supplemented by a large number of finished drawings (some in colour), a few maps, and some architectural plans and elevations, professionally drawn for him by others, or done as favours by some of his correspondents, together with a number of separately acquired prints, and engraved views cut out from contemporary printed books. The collection, which was previously bound in two large volumes, was subsequently dismounted and the items individually attached to sheets of thick cartridge paper. They are arranged by county in alphabetical order (of the old manner), followed by Orkney and Shetland, and more or less alphabetically within each county. Most of the items depict, whether in whole or in part, medieval churches and other ecclesiastical buildings, but a minority depict castles or other secular dwellings. Most are dated between 1781 and 1792 and between 1811 and 1820, with a few of earlier or later date which Hutton acquired from other sources, and a somewhat larger minority dated 1796, 1801-2, 1805 and 1807. Many, especially the engravings, are undated. For Hutton’s notebooks and sketchbooks, see Adv.MSS.30.5.1-21, 24-26 and 28. For his correspondence and associated papers, see Adv.MSS.29.4.2(i)-(xiii).

It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

McKenna Dear Friends, At Mayfield Salisbury, we have so much to give thanks for. At its best, the church is a community of prayer and pastoral care, of public worship and daily witness in our everyday lives. As a community, we are at our best when we appreciate and encourage each other, when we celebrate the gifts of others as well as our own, and when we live out mercy and forgiveness when things are not all that they might be. In a world at times harsh, lonely and unloving, it is of immeasurable value to be part of a community defined by love. We may not always get things right, but to embody love, understanding and compassion is a true sign of God’s presence, of the Spirit’s influence within us and among us. Inclusion has always been part of our story at Mayfield Salisbury. I have watched people with physical disability I am proud of our efforts to support the struggle to climb or descend our steps at work of Christian Aid and, more recently, the West Door and for some the risk of the perinatal project at CrossReach. Over falling is high.

  • Walks Around the Parish of Colinton
    Turn left into Pentland Road and admire ‘Stonehouse’ on the corner. It was the last house that Lorimer designed in Colinton. Then turn COLINTON right into Pentland Avenue, where several Lorimer-designed houses were built. ‘Colinton Cottage’ (No 23) was the first Lorimer house to be built in Colinton and was the Miss Guthrie Wright Memorial LOCAL HISTORY Home for Queen’s Nurses. Miss Wright was Lorimer’s aunt. Other examples of his work are ‘The Rowans’ (No 21), ‘Westfield’ (No 40) SOCIETY and ‘Binley’ (No 42). Turn around and walk back along Pentland Avenue as far as No 11. Just past this house, turn right down the path known as ‘The Shoot’ with its high stone walls bordering the gardens on each side. It brings you out at the bridge over the Water of Leith. Below the Bridge was the site of Colinton Station and the old railway line built in 1874. Trains carried passengers until 1943 and freight until 1967. In 1973 it became a walkway. Walks around the parish of Colinton Do not cross the bridge, but take the road on the left at the foot of The Shoot, then turn immediately right down a short flight of steps to a car park. Around this area, various millwheels have been scattered to remind people of bygone days. Turn right and walk Walk 1: under the road bridge on to the Water of Leith Walkway, on the route of the old railway. The Long Steps – Parish Church – Spylaw Bank Road – The Shoot - Old Colinton Station – Spylaw Park – After about 100 yards, a gap in the wall will take you into Spylaw Park.

Disrupting place attachment has a negative impact on people’s psychological well-being and the health of their communities. Place attachment can motivate people’s engagement in civic actions to protect their beloved places from being destroyed, especially when buildings and public spaces are demolished or redeveloped in historic places. However, the UK planning and heritage sectors have made only limited attempts to understand people’s attachment to the historic environment and how it may influence planning, conservation and development that affects historic places.

However, being impartial does not equate to passivity. That same Assembly instructed its Church and Society Council to help the Church to engage at civic, political and local level with questions related to the constitutional future of Scotland, particularly how independence might impact on the poorest and most vulnerable people. The Church and Society Council has made a commitment to making theological, ethical and spiritual contributions to public policy and decision-making with a bias to the poor, speaking for the Church of Scotland on these issues, speaking truth to power and bringing to that voice the authenticity of congregational experiences. Running ‘Imagining Scotland’s Future: Community Consultations’ is one manifestation of that commitment. We believe that it is vital to encourage public participation in this momentous decision about Scotland’s constitutional future. With willing folk and offers of host churches from across Scotland, we set about running a series of community consultation events under the banner of ‘Imagining Scotland’s Future’. We sought to create safe spaces for dialogue for people to think together about what values they want to underpin Scottish society and what shared vision we can aspire to.
