  • Radiological Habits Survey Chapelcross 2015
    Radiological Habits Survey Chapelcross 2015 Public Report Report Date: April 2017 i ii Radiological Habits Survey: Chapelcross 2015 Authors and Contributors: A. Tyler, A. Watterson, I. Dale, P. Smith, L. Evans, D. Copplestone, A. Varley, V. Peredo- Alverez, S. Bradley, B. Shaw, P. Bartie and P. Hunter Environmental Radioactivity Laboratoryiii & Occupational and Environmental Health Group iv Foreword This report details the output of the latest Radiological Habits Survey at Chapelcross, which was undertaken in 2015 by the University of Stirling operating under contract to SEPA. This study was one of the first surveys undertaken by a new contractor with a differing approach from the previous contractor in 2010. In order to demonstrate that this new approach was robust and to provide reassurance, as part of its quality assurance, SEPA requested that the contractor put in significant extra verification of data than it would have required had a similar approach been adopted. Steps proposed by the contractor involved undertaking a resurvey during 2016 with a subset of the 2015 group to produce additional data for higher routes of exposure. Data gathered from the survey was then compared to the previous 2010 survey, and provides broadly comparable data which gives reassurance that differing approaches can result in the identification of those higher-rate consumers and locations with the highest occupancy. This data verification exercise was considered useful and has been added to the methodology for future reports. SEPA considers that approaches from this and previous habits surveys are both equally valid and thus provide a robust study into the exposure pathways around the Chapelcross site.

  • The Gretna Bombing – 7Th April 1941
    Acknowledgements This booklet has been made possible by generous funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, The Armed Forces Community Covenant and Dumfries and Galloway Council, who have all kindly given The Devil’s Porridge Museum the opportunity to share the fascinating story of heroic Border people. Special thanks are given to all those local people who participated in interviews which helped to gather invaluable personal insights and key local knowledge. A special mention is deserved for the trustees and volunteers of the Devil’s Porridge Museum, who had the vision and drive to pursue the Solway Military Coast Project to a successful conclusion. Many thanks also to the staff from local libraries and archives for their assistance and giving access to fascinating sources of information. Written and Researched by Sarah Harper Edited by Richard Brodie ©Eastriggs and Gretna Heritage Group (SCIO) 2018 1 th The Gretna Bombing – 7 April 1941 The township of Gretna was built during the First World War to house many of the workers who produced cordite at the ‘greatest munitions factory on Earth’ which straddled the Scottish-English border. You might be forgiven if you had thought that Gretna and its twin township of Eastriggs would be constructed on a functional basis with little attention to detail. This was the case in the early days when a huge timber town was built on a grid system for the labourers and tradesmen, but, so intent was the Government on retaining the vital workforce, that it brought in the best town planners and architects to provide pleasant accommodation.
