  • The Glen Kyllachy Granite and Its Bearing on the Nature of the Caledonian Orogeny in Scotland
    J. geol. Soc. London, Vol. 140, 1983, pp. 47-62, 4 figs., 3 tables. Printed in Northern Ireland The Glen Kyllachy Granite and its bearing on the nature of the Caledonian Orogeny in Scotland 0. van Breemen & M. A. J. Piasecki SUMMARY:The Tomatin (Findhorn) Granite in the NW GrampianHighlands has been separatedinto two distinct complexes: alate-tectonic Glen Kyllachy Granite (tectonically foliated) and a post-tectonic Findhorn Granite (flow foliated). For the Glen Kyllachy complex, Rb-Sr analyses of muscovites from the granite and from an associated suite of cross-foliated pegmatites yield an emplacement age of 443T:5 Ma. Whole-rock Rb-Sr data support field and textural evidence that the pegmatite and granite emplacement was late-tectonic to the last (F3) phase of Caledonian folding. Initial granite X7Sr/X6Srof 0.7176 supports field and geochemical evidence of derivationfrom upper crustal metasediments first metamorphosedduring the Grenville event. For the Findhorn Granite, concordant Rb-Sr and K-Ar mineral data establish an age of 413 2 5 Ma, and an initial *'SriX6Sr of c. 0.706 indicates a lower crustal and/or mantle source. Thisage and isotopiccontrast between these granites is characteristic of the whole Grampian region, in which a plutonic hiatus between c. 440 and 415Ma coincides with the peak of sedimentary accretion in the Southern Uplands, and may be explained in terms of the lack of hydrous materials passing down the associated subduction zone. Structural, metamorphic and radiometric evidence suggests (a) that the late-F3 Glen Kyllachy pegmatites are comparable with the 442 f 7 Ma old, syn-F3 pegmatites in the N Highlands- both pegmatite suites are situated in the axial zone of the metamorphic Caledonides displaced by the GreatGlen Fault; and (b) thatthe Caledonian, c.

  • 15. Cultural Heritage
    A9 Dualling Northern Section (Dalraddy to Inverness) A9 Dualling Tomatin to Moy Stage 3 Environmental Statement 15. Cultural Heritage 15.1. Introduction 15.1.1. This chapter presents the results of the cultural heritage assessment for the Proposed Scheme. The Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (DMRB Volume 11, Section 3, Part 2: HA208/07) identifies three specific areas of interest under the overarching aspect of cultural heritage: archaeological remains, historic buildings and historic landscapes. 15.1.2. Archaeological remains consider those materials created or modified by past human activities, which includes a wide range of visible and buried artefacts, field monuments, structures and landscape features. Built heritage considers architectural, designed or other structures with a significant historical value, such as listed buildings. The historic landscape concerns perceptions that emphasise evidence of the past and its significance in shaping the present landscape. 15.1.3. Within the context of the DMRB, a cultural heritage asset is considered to be an individual archaeological site or building, a monument or group of monuments, an historic building or group of buildings and/or historic landscape. 15.1.4. In relation to archaeological remains and historic buildings the assessments have generally focussed on known sites, features, buildings and structures or sites and areas identified as having archaeological potential within the study area. 15.1.5. In relation to historic landscapes, the assessment has focussed on historic landscape types and historic landscape units within the assessment study area where social and economic activity has served to shape the landscapes in which there is a discernible awareness of their evolution.

  • Scotland – Pitlochry
    Scotland – Pitlochry Pitlochry is situated in the heart of the stunning scenery of Highland Perthshire. The town sits below Beinn Bhracaigh (Ben Vrackie), the speckled mountain and beside the River Tummel, in some of the most magnificent scenery in Scotland. With a backdrop of surrounding hills and beautiful woodlands, it is wonderful walking country. Famous as a holiday resort, rich in Victorian heritage, Pitlochry started life as a smaller neighbour to the older settlement of Moulin. Moulin is situated at the top of the hill and at the bottom of the “High Drive”, as the locals call it. From there roads led across the present-day Golf Course to Killiecrankie and Blair Atholl and down the hill to the ferry crossing at Port na Craig. The ferry was the only way at that time to cross the River Tummel and it was in operation until the footbridge was opened on Empire Day in 1912. The development of the town began in the 18th century, when General Wade’s Great North Road – built to allow military access to the Highlands- was routed through Pitlochry rather than Moulin. New inns were built to cater for travelers and the transformation of the town was completed by the arrival of the Highland Main Line Railway on June 1st 1863. Queen Victoria visited the area several times, following which it quickly developed into a popular holiday destination, famous visitors included William Ewart Gladstone, Professor J S Blackie and Robert Louis Stevenson. Pitlochry today is a bustling tourist town and has been welcoming visitors for over 170 years.
