Argyll covers the southwestern islands and western peninsulas of Scotland. While Ayrshire boundaries are well marked, Argyll is a bit more amorphous, encompassing a region that historically stretches into the Highlands. One of Ayrshire’s primary attractions is “Burns Country,” because the area was the poet Robert Burns’s birthplace as well as his predominant stomping grounds for most of his life. But Ayrshire also offers golfers some of the best links courses in the world. If you take the train from Glasgow to Ayr, the main town of Ayrshire, you can see one course after another in the sandy dunes along the shoreline. Argyll, which means the “coast of the Gaels,” encompasses islands such as Bute and Arran as well as the more remote Kintyre Peninsula. Kintyre is so sufficiently isolated that ex-Beatle Paul McCartney has long owned a ranch there where he and his family can retreat from prying eyes. It takes the better part of the day just to reach Kintyre, however, so I don’t dwellCOPYRIGHTED on its charms for too long in this MATERIAL chapter.

In 2009, in partnership with the National Park Authorities, this work was extended to determine the special qualities of the two National Parks, including the National Scenic Areas within them. The result of the work for the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park is reported here. Main findings • The park is large and diverse with significantly different landscape characteristics in different areas. Hence as well as listing the landscape qualities which are generic across the park, the qualities for the four landscape areas of Argyll Forest, Loch Lomond, Breadalbane and the Trossachs are also given.

  • Arrochar Hills 27 April 2013 Participants 18 Leader: David Jarman, Mountain Landform Researcher Report: Seonaid Leishman
    Day Excursion Rock Slope Failures of the Arrochar Hills 27 April 2013 Participants 18 Leader: David Jarman, Mountain Landform Researcher Report: Seonaid Leishman At the AGM in January 2012 David Jarman gave a short talk on Collapsing Munros – shaping the Highlands. The time allotted was all too short and David could only introduce the topic of Rock Slope Failures. However he readily agreed to lead a future excursion to our own back-yard, the Luss Hills, Arrochar Alps and Cowal. On a beautiful sunny April morning 16 of us met up at the foot of Glen Douglas and were taken on a road tour, with associated short hikes, via Loch Long, Glen Croe, Loch Goil, Hell’s Glen and Loch Fyne. Our trusty friend Raymond negotiated the coach over some of these tricky single track roads. David’s full notes for a self-guided tour, including photographs, render this report rather superfluous. His Guide is on the website (www.geologyglasgow.org.uk). However it is worth giving a flavour of this excellent excursion to encourage you to take to the High Road! Rock Slope Failures (RSFs) comprise large landslips, rockslides and slope deformations affecting square kilometres of hillsides and penetrating 100s of metres deep. They occurred around or soon after deglaciation periods and were first recognised and mapped by C T Clough in the 1890s. However following David’s recent research 1000 or so have been identified in the Highlands, the greatest concentration being in our area of the Arrochar Hills. RSFs help to explain the shaping, enlargement or destruction of these mountain ridges, corries and glens.

  • Outdoor Access Trust Annual Report
    Mountain Scars A blight on our landscape Outdoor Access Trust for Scotland Annual Report 2017 - 2018 The eroded path or ‘scar’ up Carn Liath on Beinn a’Ghlo The combination of Scotland’s cold, wet windy weather, steep hillsides, friable soil and fragile vegetation cover makes the upland areas particularly susceptible to erosion from even a relatively small number of users. The result ends up as unsightly scarring of our precious wild landscapes as seen above on Beinn a’Ghlo. Beinn a’Ghlo is the collective name for the range of A designated Special Area of Conservation (SAC) as three Munros east of Glen Tilt in Highland Perthshire. well as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), The southerly peak in the range, Carn Liath is a Beinn a’Ghlo is home to several species of upland landmark from the south, looking over to Blair Atholl ground nesting birds, five of which have recently towards the Scottish Lowlands.

We want to keep in touch with everyone, with updates about what’s on and what’s planned for our community. Using email as our main means of contact is good for the environment – saving paper. Email also saves the Trust money (which can then be directed to other community benefits). And it means members will get our regular e-Newsletters – like this one! If you’re getting this e-Newsletter directly, it means we have an active email address for you in our records. That’s great, but we don’t have email details for quite a large number of our members. We are gradually contacting these members by post to ask them to switch to email – but that’s quite a time consuming and costly exercise. So, we’re looking for Trust Members to help out.

  • Access to Argyll & Bute (A83) Strategic Environmental Assessment
    Access to Argyll & Bute (A83) Strategic Environmental Assessment & Preliminary Engineering Services Route Corridor Preliminary Assessment Route Corridor 13 – Glen Loin Route Corridor Details Route Corridor Option Route Corridor 13 – Glen Loin Route Corridor Description The Glen Loin route corridor is off-line within Glen Loin and follows the wider valley floor from the A83 Trunk Road at Arrochar, heading north towards Loch Sloy before turning west across the mountain range towards the A83 Trunk Road at Butterbridge. The overall length of the route corridor is approximately 11.1 kilometres. The route corridor passes through similar terrain to that of the Rest and Be Thankful. Road structures and ground engineering measures would likely be required to fit the new road in the topography of the valley. Rationale for Route Corridor The Glen Loin route corridor was a suggestion submitted as part of the recent public consultation on A83 Access to Argyll and Bute project. This route corridor is considered to offer a potential alternative access route into Argyll and Bute bypassing the main landslide risk area on the A83 Trunk Road at the Rest and Be Thankful. Geographic Context The route corridor lies within the Argyll & Bute region, which comprises solely of the entirety of the Argyll & Bute local authority area. The route corridor end points are located a straight-line distance of approximately 31-35 miles from the city of Glasgow. The south-east extents of the route corridor is situated at Arrochar on the A83 Trunk Road. The west extents of the route corridor is situated at Butterbridge which is located between Cairndow and the Rest and Be Thankful on the A83 Trunk Road.

However, planning for housing requires a particular geographical approach and a specific functional definition. 2 1.3 Housing market areas (HMAs) A housing market area is defined as a geographical space or territory within which people will search for housing and within which they are willing to move while maintaining their existing economic – e.g.
