These accounts were written by the ministers of the time and, together with snippets from other books such as Alex Warden’s “Angus or Forfarshire – The Land and People”, form the core of our knowledge of the Parish’s past. In the last 50 years the Parish and its people have undergone many rapid and significant changes. These have come about through local government reorganisations, easier forms of personal transport and the advent of electricity, but above all, by the massive changes in farming. Dwellings, which were once farmhouses or cottages for farm-workers, have been sold and extensively altered. New houses have been built and manses, and even mansion houses, have been converted to new uses. What used to be a predominantly agricultural community has now changed forever. The last full Statistical Account was published in 1951, with revisions in 1967.

Some people complain that there is nothing to do, but there are many clubs and societies operating throughout the week. So it is hoped in this magazine that all these activities are suitably covered showing what a wide variety there really is. The Magazine is essentially the same as last year’s. Many say the trouble with it is that it is always the same as the year before’s. Yet o f all the moaners not one has come forward with any sane ideas, so the magazine stays the same— or nearly so. Obviously these people are fooled by the conservative cover, the small print and the lack of photographs (though there are more this year). If they just bothered to do a little reading they would see that the magazine is full of interesting and entertaining articles. O f course there are the same articles which have been in the magazine for the last fifty years but in this age of change perhaps a little conservatism is a good thing.

Until the middle of December last it did not -• to the knowledge of the Publisher of the Director) 1890 that the Publisher of the Directories for the pi ceding years was not to undertake the work on this occa sion. It was, therefore, impossible that the Directory- could appear within weeks of the usual time ; and this, combined with other disadvantages connected with such a late start, made the publication of it a difficult and somewhat hazardous undertaking. Nevertheless, an Annual Directory is such a necessary thing for the con- venience of all classes of the public that the Publisher took the work in hand in the hope that any little short- comings might be overlooked in the fact that a Directory for 1890 had been published at all. The Publisher has to thank the Merchants and others who have so liberally supported him in the way of advertisements, as also the officials of the Societies and other organizations in town for the help they have afforded him in getting up the local information.

    Landscape Character Assessment 2019 LANDSCAPE CHARACTER ASSESSMENT TAYSIDE LANDSCAPE EVOLUTION AND INFLUENCES Landscape Evolution and Influences – Tayside 1 Landscape Character Assessment 2019 CONTENTS 1. Introduction/Overview page 3 2. Physical Influences page 5 3. Human Influences page 14 4. Cultural Influences and Perception page 43 Title Page Photographs, clockwise from top left: Castle Island, Loch Leven ©Louise Clark/NatureScot The Lawers burn at Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve. ©Lorne Gill/NatureScot Dundee. View from Dundee Law. ©Lorne Gill/NatureScot Farmland and the River Earn ©Lorne Gill/NatureScot This document provides information on how the landscape of the local authority area has evolved. It complements the Landscape Character Type descriptions of the 2019 dataset. The original character assessment reports, part of a series of 30, mostly for a local authority area, included a “Background Chapter” on the formation of the landscape. These documents have been revised because feedback said they are useful, despite the fact that other sources of information are now readily available on the internet, unlike in the 1990’s when the first versions were produced. The content of the chapters varied considerably between the reports, and it has been restructured into a more standard format: Introduction, Physical Influences and Human Influences for all areas; and Cultural Influences sections for the majority. Some content variation still remains as the documents have been revised rather than rewritten, The information has been updated with input from the relevant Local Authorities. The historic and cultural aspects have been reviewed and updated by Historic Environment Scotland. Gaps in information have been filled where possible.
