  • The Lands of Kincaid in Relation to the Highlands of Scotland
    Peter Anthony Kincaid The lands of Kincaid in relation to the Highlands of Scotland. The physical boundary between the Lowlands and the Highlands of Scotland is the Highland boundary fault. The Highland boundary fault creates a visible change in the geology of the land. The fault comes ashore from the river Clyde near Helensburgh and continues in a north east direction towards Aberfoyle. It continues north east all the way to near Stonehaven on the coast of the North Sea.1 The islands of Inchmurrin, Creinch, Torrinch, and Inchcailloch in Loch Lomond all form visible parts of the Highland boundary Fault.2 The lands of Kincaid are at best about 15.3 English miles or about 24.6 kilometres from this fault (if one takes a direct line from the intersection of Campsie Road and Milton Road to summits north east of Conic Hill). Without doubt the lands of Kincaid are physically in Lowland Scotland. Some may argue that people may have considered a different boundary with regards to what one considered a Highlander. The evidence does not support this. It is not until the 1716 penal laws established against the Highlanders that this author could locate any official boundary. In what we refer to as the Disarming Act of 1716, the western bounds were established as "within the Shires of Dumbarton on the North-side of the Water of Leven, Stirling on the North-side of the River of Forth."3 At that time, Scots must have understood the Highlands to be north of the River Forth and north of the river Leven.

  • River Forth Catchment Profile
    Published September 2011 River Forth catchment profile Introduction The River Forth catchment encompasses a large area – approximately 1029 km2. As can be seen in Figure 1, the catchment not only contains the River Forth itself, but also major tributaries such as the River Teith. Figure 1: River Forth catchment Land-use within the catchment is predominantly rural, comprising managed forests and farmland. The Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park covers a significant portion of the upper reaches of the catchment. In the lower-lying reaches, a greater degree of urbanisation can be seen with the City of Stirling and surrounding villages, interspersed with agricultural holdings. Water resources are important within this catchment with the lochs and reservoirs serving important functions in the supply of drinking water – indeed Loch Katrine plays a vital role in providing Glasgow with much of its water. In addition, the development of small-scale micro hydro generation schemes are increasing within the catchment. The catchment contains 46 baseline1 surface water bodies, six of which are heavily modified. These heavily modified water bodies have been designated because of the modifications necessary to enable the supply of drinking water. There are five groundwater bodies associated with the catchment. Further information on the River Forth catchment can be found on the RBMP interactive map. 1 A baseline water body is a river which drains a catchment greater than 10km 2, lochs bigger than 0.5km2, all coastal waters out to three nautical miles, transitional waters such as estuaries and groundwaters. A non-baseline water body is a river or loch which falls below the size threshold.
