  • An Gleann's Robh Mi Og
    An Gleann's robh mi og When I was a child my great grandmother Christina MacLachlan lived alone in a tiny cottage in Tobermory which consisted of just two rooms, a bedroom and a living room which also served as the kitchen. There was a stone sink with single cold water tap that was used for all purposes and a tiny ‘Baby Belling’ electric stove for cooking and heating water. It was all in stark contrast to my parents’ home on the edge of London. What I didn’t realize was that with electricity and mains water this represented luxury compared with the life she had known at Glendrian where she had raised her six children who would be the last of the many MacLachlan generations to have lived at the tiny township. Chrissie, the youngest of her children wrote a description of Glendryen in a school exercise book / diary when she was in Senior 1, Class IV, at the Achosnich Public School, Ardnamurchan in 1924. It contains perfect handwriting, arithmetic, and drawings, etc. In a piece entitled ‘ An Gleann's robh mi og .’ which means something like ‘Historic Glendryen’ she stated: "The generation of MacLachlans now in Glendryen is the 10th or 11th generation of that clan to have lived there" and went on to give the numbers of Stock, i.e. cows, horses, calves, etc. at both Glendrian and Plocaig. It is difficult to put a precise time to the period of occupation by our family in that men folk often married later rather than earlier in life.

  • Population Change in Lochaber 2001 to 2011
    The Highland Council Agenda 5 Item Lochaber Area Committee Report LA/2/14 No 27 February 2014 Population Change in Lochaber 2001 To 2011 Report by Director of Planning and Development Summary This report presents early results from the 2011 Census, giving local information on the number and ages of people living within Lochaber. It compares these figures with those from 2001 to show that the population has “aged”, and that there is a large number of people who are close to retirement age. The population of Lochaber has grown by 6.1% (compared to the Highland average of 11.1%) with an increase in both Wards, and at a local level in 18 out of 27 data zones. Local population growth is strongly linked to the building of new homes. 1. Background 1.1. Publication of the results from the 2011 Census began in December 2012, and the most recent published in November and December 2013 gave the first detailed results for “census output areas”, the smallest areas for which results are published. These detailed results have enabled preparation of the first 2011 Census profiles and these are available for Wards, Associated School Groups, Community Councils and Settlement Zones on the Highland Council’s website at: http://www.highland.gov.uk/yourcouncil/highlandfactsandfigures/census2011.htm 1.2. This report returns to some earlier results and looks at how the age profile of the Lochaber population and the total numbers have changed at a local level (datazones). The changes for Highland are summarised in Briefing Note 57 which is attached at Appendix 1.

  • The Story of Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve
    Scotland’s National Nature Reserves For more information about Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve please contact: Scottish Natural Heritage, Creag Meagaidh NNR, Aberarder, Kinlochlaggan, Newtonmore, Inverness-shire, PH20 1BX Telephone/Fax: 01528 544 265 Email: [email protected] The Story of Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve The Story of Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve Foreword Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve (NNR), named after the great whalebacked ridge which dominates the Reserve, is one of the most diverse and important upland sites in Scotland. Creag Meagaidh is a complex massif, with numerous mountain tops and an extensive high summit plateau edged by a dramatic series of ice-carved corries and gullies. The Reserve extends from the highest of the mountain tops to the shores of Loch Laggan. The plateau is carpeted in moss-heath and is an important breeding ground for dotterel. The corries support unusual artic- alpine plants and the lower slopes have scattered patches of ancient woodland dominated by birch. Located 45 kilometres (km) northeast of Fort William and covering nearly 4,000 hectares (ha), the Reserve is owned and managed by Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH). Creag Meagaidh has been a NNR since 1986 and during the last twenty years SNH has worked to restore natural habitats, particularly woodland, on the Reserve. Like much of the Highlands, the vegetation has been heavily grazed for centuries, so it was decided to reduce the number of grazing animals by removing sheep and culling red deer. The aim was not to eliminate grazing animals altogether, but to keep numbers at a level that allowed the habitats, especially the woodland, to recover.
