Old Mines and Mine Masters of the Monklands” British Mining No.45, NMRS, Pp.66-86
BRITISH MINING No.45 MEMOIRS 1992 Skillen, B.S. 1992 “Old Mines and Mine Masters of the Monklands” British Mining No.45, NMRS, pp.66-86. Published by the THE NORTHERN MINE RESEARCH SOCIETY SHEFFIELD U.K. © N.M.R.S. & The Author(s) 1992. ISSN 0309-2199 BRITISH MINING No.45 OLD MINES AND MINES MASTERS OF THE MONKLANDS Brian S. Skillen SYNOPSIS The Monklands lie east of Glasgow, across economically worthwhile coal measures, which have been worked to a great extent. Additionally to coal it proved possible to work a good local ironstone. Mushet’s blackband ironstone proved the resource on which the Monklands rose to prosperity in the 19th century. A pot pourri of minerals was there to be worked and their exploitation may be traced back to the 17th century. Estate feuding provides the first clue to the early coal working of the Monklands. In 1616, Muirhead of Brydanhill was in dispute with Newlands of Kip ps. Such was the animosity of feeling, that the latter turned up at the tiny coal working at Brydanhill and together with his men smashed up Muirhead’s pit head.1 It is likely that Muirhead’s mine had answered purely local needs and certainly if mining did continue it was on this ephemeral basis, at least until the mid 18th century. The reasons are easy to find, fragile local markets that offered no encouragement to invest in mining and a lack of communications that stopped any hope of export. In any case the western markets were then answered by the many small coal pits about the Glasgow district, including satellite workings such as Barrachnie on the western extremity of Old Monkland Parish.

French Travellers to Scotland, 1780-1830
French Travellers to Scotland, 1780-1830: An Analysis of Some Travel Journals. Elizabeth Anne McFarlane Submitted according to regulations of University of Stirling January 2015 Abstract. This study examines the value of travellers’ written records of their trips with specific reference to the journals of five French travellers who visited Scotland between 1780 and 1830. The thesis argues that they contain material which demonstrates the merit of journals as historical documents. The themes chosen for scrutiny, life in the rural areas, agriculture, industry, transport and towns, are examined and assessed across the journals and against the social, economic and literary scene in France and Scotland. Through the evidence presented in the journals, the thesis explores aspects of the tourist experience of the Enlightenment and post - Enlightenment periods. The viewpoint of knowledgeable French Anglophiles and their receptiveness to Scottish influences, grants a perspective of the position of France in the economic, social and power structure of Europe and the New World vis-à-vis Scotland. The thesis adopts a narrow, focussed analysis of the journals which is compared and contrasted to a broad brush approach adopted in other studies. ii Dedication. For Angus, Mhairi and Brent, who are all scientists. iii Acknowledgements. I would like to thank my husband, Angus, and my daughter, Mhairi, for all the support over the many years it has taken to complete this thesis. I would like to mention in particular the help Angus gave me in the layout of the maps and the table. I would like to express my appreciation for the patience and perseverance of my supervisors and second supervisors over the years.

Ballingry Parish Beath Parish Andrew Miller, Dundyvan Iron Works, Glasgow 1864 Blantyre Parish Bothwell Parish CHAPTER I. Bothwellhaugh It has been said of England, that it is peculiarly the land of iron manufactures; and the same may, with equal justice, be applied to Scotland, where upwards of 120 blast furnaces continually belch forth their flames, producing a daily supply of Cambusnethan Parish pig-iron amounting to nearly three thousand tons; in addition to which there are also a large number of forges and mills, Dalserf Parish with their furnaces and powerful machinery, converting the crude iron into the malleable state, and rolling it out into every conceivable shape and form, according to the purposes for which it may be required. It is assumed that nearly one-half of Hamilton Parish all the iron so manufactured in Scotland, is produced in the district of Coatbridge and county of Lanark, which has earned for it the title of the Staffordshire of Scotland. These iron works have flourished and prospered in the district for upwards of New Monkland Parish thirty years - nay, some of them for the last sixty years; and this important branch of the nation's wealth and industry, in this district, has been the nursery or handmaid for the extension of iron manufacture to many other parts of Scotland. The Old Monkland Parish district of Coatbridge is situated in the middle ward of the shire, and is famed for its mineral resources and productions, Pre-1855 Accidents which for nearly half a century have held a very prominent position in the mining world.

Forth and Clyde Canal Surface Water Management Potential Hazel Smith
Forth and Clyde Canal Surface Water Management Potential Hazel Smith, Hydrologist, AECOM [email protected] Introduction The Forth & Clyde Canal is a 39 mile (62.5km) long manmade inland waterway linking the Firth of Forth in the east to the River Clyde in the west. In and around Glasgow near the canal system there is the potential to develop land, however, with the existing sewer network at capacity and no nearby watercourses, many areas are essentially land locked. The Forth and Clyde Canal offers a significant opportunity for draining future development and reducing existing flood risk problems. AECOM UK Limited was commissioned in June 2010 by British Waterways Scotland (BWS) to undertake a review and update of the Forth and Clyde Canal hydrological and hydraulic model and subsequently to investigate the opportunities that the canal can offer, through changes to the operational management of the system. Figure 1 – Location Map Forth & Clyde Canal (West Branch) Maryhill Lock 21 to Bowling Forth & Clyde Lock 39 Canal Summit Pound Lock 20 Monkland Canal (piped and open) Forth & Clyde Canal Glasgow Branch The Initial Study A hydraulic model was constructed which allowed BWS to meet their an increased understanding of the operation of the canal system, but primarily to have a tool which can assess the future effects of surface water discharges from adjacent developments, in particularly associated with land locked development within the North Glasgow catchment. The study required the collation and review of available data, relevant to the modelled study reach, including hydrological information, structure dimensions and cross-sectional channel geometry information.
