In addition, a separate planning application has been submitted to Aberdeenshire Council for proposed ancillary road works within the Aberdeenshire Council boundary as part of the overall proposals. This includes the formation of access road, cycle paths and footpaths, upgrade (widening) of Causey Mounth road and access junction with Leggart Terrace, and associated landscaping. As a result of local feedback Comer are proposing a new signalised junction from the A92 directly into the Eastern part of the new development. The new access would also provide a controlled pedestrian/cycle access over the A92, with an extended 40 mile a limit zone. Importantly there will be no vehicle access directly through to Causey Mounth Road from the A92, instead, Comer are proposing a new pedestrian footpath that will not only link both sides of the proposed development, but will provide a link to Tollohill Wood, the Den of Leggart and the surrounding area for existing and new residents. Although approached on several occasions, no one from “Protect Banchory Devenick” has involvement with the NKRCC and we are unaware if they receive communications from Liberty One.

    Portlethen Moss - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 of 4 Portlethen Moss NFrom, 2°8′50.68 Wikipedia,″W (http://kvaleberg.com/extensions/mapsources the free encyclopedia /index.php?params=57_3_27.04_N_2_8_50.68_W_region:GB) The Portlethen Moss is an acidic bog nature reserve in the coastal Grampian region in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Like other mosses, this wetland area supports a variety of plant and animal species, even though it has been subject to certain development and agricultural degradation pressures. For example, the Great Crested Newt was found here prior to the expansion of the town of Portlethen. Many acid loving vegetative species are found in Portlethen Moss, and the habitat is monitored by the Scottish Wildlife Trust. True heather, a common plant on the The Portlethen Moss is the location of considerable prehistoric, Portlethen Moss Middle Ages and seventeenth century history, largely due to a ridge through the bog which was the route of early travellers. By at least the Middle Ages this route was more formally constructed with raised stonework and called the Causey Mounth. Without this roadway, travel through the Portlethen Moss and several nearby bogs would have been impossible between Aberdeen and coastal points to the south. Contents 1 History 2 Conservation status 3 Topography and meteorology 4 Evolution of Portlethen Moss 5 Vegetation 6 Relation to other mosses 7 References 8 See also History Prehistoric man inhabited the Portlethen Moss area as evidenced by well preserved Iron Age stone circles and other excavated artefacts nearby [1]. Obviously only the outcrops and ridge areas would have been habitable, but the desirability of primitive habitation would have been enhanced by proximity to the sea and natural defensive protection of the moss to impede intruders.

  • Cammachmore Community Action Plan Map Community Action Plan
    Cammachmore Community Action Plan Map Community Action Plan Map of Cammachmore obtained from Google maps 2 Introduction Community Action Plan In March 2012 Newtonhill, Muchalls & Cammachmore Community Council, funded by the Kincardine & Mearns Local Community Planning Group, carried out a community consultation by delivering questionnaires to every property in the area. The outcomes from the completed questionnaires and comments given to members of the Community Council have been used to develop this prioritised Action Plan to help the community to focus on and develop future goals. For the purposes of this report we have taken West Cammachmore to include all the properties in the village and to the west, including Chapelton. The Community Council have worked with North Kincardine Rural Community Council in the preparation of this action plan. The Community Council will use this Community Action Plan to inform decision making and to promote the views and wishes of the communities of Cammachmore and Chapelton. History There is evidence of settlements here from before 1650. The natural harbour at Newtonhill provided a sheltered landing place for fishermen from Cammachmore and Skateraw. A pier was built around 1880 for use by fishing and cargo vessels (coal & lime), but the harbour proved unsuitable for steam driven vessels. In the late 1880’s the Laird improved the cottages to encourage the fishermen to stay, but despite this, many fishermen relocated to Stonehaven and Aberdeen. The pier fell into disrepair and was blown up in 1980. The 1901 census tells us that about one third of the cottages were vacant. West Cammachmore stands on what was the main drovers’ road, the Causey Mounth, from the south near Gillybrands Farm (formerly Jeally Bran’s Inn in the mid 18th century).
