  • The Antonine Wall, the Roman Frontier in Scotland, Was the Most and Northerly Frontier of the Roman Empire for a Generation from AD 142
    Breeze The Antonine Wall, the Roman frontier in Scotland, was the most and northerly frontier of the Roman Empire for a generation from AD 142. Hanson It is a World Heritage Site and Scotland’s largest ancient monument. The Antonine Wall Today, it cuts across the densely populated central belt between Forth (eds) and Clyde. In The Antonine Wall: Papers in Honour of Professor Lawrence Keppie, Papers in honour of nearly 40 archaeologists, historians and heritage managers present their researches on the Antonine Wall in recognition of the work Professor Lawrence Keppie of Lawrence Keppie, formerly Professor of Roman History and Wall Antonine The Archaeology at the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow University, who spent edited by much of his academic career recording and studying the Wall. The 32 papers cover a wide variety of aspects, embracing the environmental and prehistoric background to the Wall, its structure, planning and David J. Breeze and William S. Hanson construction, military deployment on its line, associated artefacts and inscriptions, the logistics of its supply, as well as new insights into the study of its history. Due attention is paid to the people of the Wall, not just the ofcers and soldiers, but their womenfolk and children. Important aspects of the book are new developments in the recording, interpretation and presentation of the Antonine Wall to today’s visitors. Considerable use is also made of modern scientifc techniques, from pollen, soil and spectrographic analysis to geophysical survey and airborne laser scanning. In short, the papers embody present- day cutting edge research on, and summarise the most up-to-date understanding of, Rome’s shortest-lived frontier.

Summary 1.1 At the Council meeting of 28 February 2019, it was agreed to deliver a £40milion, five-year investment in Renfrewshire roads, cycling routes and pedestrian paths, representing the biggest ever investment of its kind. This will make journeys safer and easier, improve business connectivity, support development and town centre improvements and make it easier for visitors to enjoy Renfrewshire attractions. 1.2 The approach during 2019/20 will continue the progressive improvement of roads assets and fits with the asset management approach of seeking to reduce reactive revenue expenditure through prudent life cycle investment. 1.3 The focus for 2019/20 includes schemes within the strategic road network as well as roads of local significance with a presence in every town and village across Renfrewshire. A sustained effort will continue to ensure the highest quality of product will be used and contractors’ standards will be robustly monitored throughout the year. 1.4 There are a number of strategic roads where works are planned and as such, detailed communication plans will be developed for each of these to ensure stakeholder engagement is maintained going forward.

  • A Profile of the Health & Well-Being of Glasgow
    A Profile of the Health & Well-being of Glasgow Glasgow’s Healthier Future Forum 30th November 2005 Preface This document has been created as an accompaniment to a presentation at the 2nd Glasgow’s Healthier Future Forum (organised by the Glasgow Centre for Population Health (GCPH)) on November 30th, 2005. The data will be presented by David Walsh and Bruce Whyte of NHS Health Scotland as part of an ongoing collaboration with GCPH. The presentation - and accompanying report - incorporates a small subset of a much broader collection of data which will be published in early 2006 as part of a descriptive report on the health and well-being of Glasgow and the West of Scotland. The data included within these pages, therefore, are not intended to be - and indeed could not be - comprehensive. They are merely illustrative examples of Glasgow’s health. The theme of the presentation is an analysis of those health and well-being related factors in Glasgow which are improving, those which are worsening, and those which are proving resistant to change. Within that theme, the data are presented within the following ten topics relevant to health: the historical context, population dynamics, the economy, the social environment, the physical environment, behaviour, pregnancy & childbirth, children’s health, health & function, and illness & disease. An additional handful of charts showing projections for a few key health related indicators are also included. Note: a number of the charts presented here are derived from analysis of the 2004 Community Health & Well-being Profiles produced by NHS Health Scotland. In these cases the data are presented at two geographical levels: ‘community’ (primary care-based localities with populations ranging from 20,000-140,000 people) and postcode sector (small areas with populations of around 3,000-5,000 on average).
