Community Newsletter Autumn 2018 Community Newsletter Autumn 2018 Working for Lochmaben Some of the guests who gathered at the Sailing Club on the 27th August to see the Lord Lieutenant of Dumfries, Fiona Armstrong, present the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service to the Chairman of the Trustees, David Rose. * * A red letter day for the Castle Loch Lochmaben Community Trust and for the community of Lochmaben. 1 To comply with the Data Protection Act 2018, the Initiative will only use the specific limited personal data which you supply for inclusion in the Newsletter fairly and lawfully for the sole journalistic purpose of publishing items of general community interest and information. The Initiative will not use, share or keep that data for any other purpose whatsoever, without your express consent. Our Data Protection Policy is available for viewing on our Facebook Page/Website, or on application to the Initiative. We’re adding a few Scots phrases to the Newsletter ‘tae get ye gaun’.This wee fella shows where they are to be found (and what they mean, if that is needed). News in Brief As a result of some very hard work by several local tradesmen and businesses, the changing facilities at Whitehills Park are taking shape. The new pavilion will be a great asset to Lochmaben FC. Church news All the pews in the church are being removed and replaced with chairs. The pews are available to buy by anyone interested. Short ones – about 7 feet – and long ones – about 14 feet – are on offer at £40 and £70 respectively. Contact Alistair Brown on 01387 811842 for further information. Robert the Bruce statue Residents may have noticed that this splendid statue has recently been given a makeover and he is now looking very spruce. – in fact a Spruce Bruce! This is very fortunate since a new film, Outlaw King, is due to be released on Netflix in November. It is a period drama following Bruce’s battles to regain control after being outlawed by England’s King Edward I for taking the Scottish Crown by force. Highland dancing gold Lochmaben Primary School pupil, Lola Callander, won a gold medal at the Cowal Highland Gathering recently. Winning this competition is the ultimate in every Highland dancer’s ambition. Local sports people There are many local lads and lasses acquitting themselves well in various sporting fields. Katie Reville from Templand picked up a medal at the Celtic Games recently and was rewarded with a call up for team GB. Ava Simpson from Lochmaben won a bronze medal at the British Summer Swimming Championships. She then went to the County Team Championships in Sheffield where a personal best moved her up to 3rd in Great Britain for the 50m backstroke event. Niamh Green also pulled out all the stops at the BSCC to finish 19th in Great Britain in her 100 metres backstroke final – no mean feat. New business venture for Lochmaben couple Jackie and Kenny Bell plan to create a very innovative 24 hour nursery complex at Cargenbridge near Dumfries. Jackie already runs the highly successful, award winning nursery Jaybees in Lochmaben. The new venture will be sited on former ICI waste ground and will include a bio-nursery, cycle paths, nature trails as well as the usual child care facilities. More unusual are the planned facilities for all ages, young and elderly and mixing them together for the benefit of both. They hope to see progress in the next 12 months ultimately creating up to 75 jobs with nursery cover available 24/7 particularly for hospital staff at the nearby DGRI. Merchant Navy Day This is observed throughout the UK by flying the Red Ensign on all public buildings including our own Town Hall and Sailing Club. It is in recognition of the sacrifice of tens of thousands of MN seamen who lost their lives during both World Wars – a much higher attrition rate than any of the armed Services. It also should remind us all of the utmost value to our international trade in that about 95% of all our imports and exports are carried by ship without which service we would quickly grind to a halt. 2 DBA Finals winners Congratulations to Lochmaben bowlers, Mabel McDonald and George McDonald, who won the mixed pairs final in Gretna recently. Sports Ambassadors Congratulations, too, to Katie Reville and Millie Maxwell, recently selected to promote sport within Lockerbie Academy. Royal Voluntary Service ‘ Meals on Wheels’ unfortunately came to an end at the end of September. Many thanks to all service users and to the many volunteers who, over the years, made the deliveries. World War 1 commemoration This year sees the 100th anniversary of the end of the “War to end all Wars”. Many local men went away to fight for King and Country and did not come back. Many more came back sorely wounded in body and mind to somehow pick up the pieces of their lives. All those service men and women who took part deserve to be remembered for the sacrifices they made in defence of our country. It would be so good if, on this special occasion, most of the residents of Lochmaben sacrificed half an hour of their time on Sunday 11th November at the War Memorial near the church to observe 2 minutes silence and watch the laying of wreaths there. More details on p17. Newsletter Distribution Areas The organisers of the Initiative Newsletter would like to thank the many volunteers in the town and in Hightae and Templand who faithfully arrange distribution of the magazine to every house in the area. There would be little point in producing the newsletter without making sure it is put through everyone’s letterbox. So thank you team. By means of this newsletter, volunteers are being sought for some areas in the town to help spread the load of this task. Particularly needed are folks to cover Mossvale and Nethermill Road, Stanedyke Crescent to Blaemeadow, Rankine Heights and Marjoriebanks. It only takes about one hour twice per year to pop the newsletter through all letter boxes in the area. If you could help, phone Alistair Brown on 01387 811842 for further information. Lochmaben’s flowers For the past couple of years, residents and businesses in the town have volunteered to fill and look after planters and flower beds. It has to be a source of pride that our town looks so colourful in the summer months and presents a good impression and welcome to our many visitors. This is the third year that the scheme has been in existence since the Council said it could no longer fund such displays. So well done and thank you to all concerned. Your efforts are greatly appreciated. Special mention must be given to Jim Davidson who single-handedly looks after many of the planters and beds by weeding and watering when needed. Congratulations also to everyone who helped make the Gardens in Bloom Competition 2018 another success. The appearance of the Burgh has also been greatly enhanced by the efforts of everyone who took part. Lochmaben’s gardens There are many lovely gardens tended by green fingered Lochmaben residents. This year’s garden competition was as popular as ever and many awards were made in various categories. The overall winners were Mr and Mrs Ian Rankine of Vendace Drive whose garden was a tidy riot of colour and variety – a joy to see. Our pic shows Mrs Rankine with the much sought- after Winner’s Shield 3 What’s in a Name? Victory Park is mentioned a number of times in this Newsletter Edition. Does anyone know who gave it that name? And why? To commemorate victory in a war? Which one? Let us know, if you know………. Community Groups Annandale Sailing Club It’s been a busy summer on the Castle Loch with Annandale Sailing Club running two Active Schools taster days, two five-day RYA training courses and a major traveller event for junior sailors from all over Scotland, as well as the usual club races. The Active Schools days saw more than 40 children from Annandale and Eskdale come along and have fun on the water, learning basic skills and taking trips round the loch with experienced club volunteers. The first summer training course, run by Senior Instructor Chris Nurney, was blessed with beautiful weather and was enjoyed by children of all ages and adults. The heatwave had broken by the second course, run by Senior Instructor Richard Bryant, and its trainees battled challenging windy conditions on several days. The Optimist/Topper Traveller at the end of August was a national event attracting young sailors and their families from clubs up and down the country. There was high level racing in the main fleet and coached races for novice sailors too. Annandale Sailing Club’s Alex Byres emerged the top placed novice, while Eloise Noble and Anna Miller put in some good performances in the Optimist main fleet. Although Tuesday and Thursday evening sailing is now drawing to a close for this year, the season is far from over with Sunday racing continuing until November. The Castle Loch Lochmaben Community Trust---the background--…… The Castle Loch and surrounding woodlands had been offered for sale a number of years ago but, though there was interest from members of the Castle Loch Advisory Committee, there were no sources of funding to make a purchase possible at that time. Just after David Rose moved to Lochmaben the area came on to the market again. David set about contacting a number of interested people with key skills and formed a Steering Committee to examine the project more closely.

  • Dumfriesshire
    Dumfriesshire Rare Plant Register 2020 Christopher Miles An account of the known distribution of the rare or scarce native plants in Dumfriesshire up to the end of 2019 Rare Plant Register Dumfriesshire 2020 Holy Grass, Hierochloe odorata Black Esk July 2019 2 Rare Plant Register Dumfriesshire 2020 Acknowledgements My thanks go to all those who have contributed plant records in Dumfriesshire over the years. Many people have between them provided hundreds or thousands of records and this publication would not have been possible without them. More particularly, before my recording from 1996 onwards, plant records have been collected and collated in three distinct periods since the nineteenth century by previous botanists working in Dumfriesshire. The first of these was George F. Scott- Elliot. He was an eminent explorer and botanist who edited the first and only Flora so far published for Dumfriesshire in 1896. His work was greatly aided by other contributing botanists probably most notably Mr J.T. Johnstone and Mr W. Stevens. The second was Humphrey Milne-Redhead who was a GP in Mainsriddle in Kircudbrightshire from 1947. He was both the vice county recorder for Bryophytes and for Higher Plants for all three Dumfries and Galloway vice counties! During his time the first systematic recording was stimulated by work for the first Atlas of the British Flora (1962). He published a checklist in 1971/72. The third period of recording was between 1975 and 1993 led by Stuart Martin and particularly Mary Martin after Stuart’s death. Mary in particular continued systematic recording and recorded for the monitoring scheme in 1987/88.
