    CITATION MOCHRUM LOCHS SITE OF SPECIAL SCIENTIFIC INTEREST Dumfries and Galloway Site code: 1171 NATIONAL GRID REFERENCE: NX 295535 OS 1:50,000 SHEET NO: Landranger Series 82 1:25,000 SHEET NO: Explorer Series 310, 311 AREA: 456.36 hectares NOTIFIED NATURAL FEATURES Biological: Bogs: Blanket Bog Freshwater habitats: Oligotrophic loch Birds: Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) DESCRIPTION Mochrum Lochs Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) is an area of blanket bog and loch lying 7.5km southwest of Kirkcowan. The area of blanket bog lies between Castle Loch, Black Loch and Mochrum Loch and is the best example of its kind in Wigtownshire, showing a range of vegetation types. The lochs are also the best examples of lowland oligotrophic waters in Wigtownshire. The site provides a clear view of the variations found on this type of habitat. The drier areas are dominated by cranberry Vaccinium oxycoccus, purple moor-grass Molinia caerulea, heather Calluna vulgaris, hare’s-tail cottongrass Eriophorum vaginatum, cross-leaved heath Erica tetralix and Sphagnum rubellum. The wet areas are dominated by Sphagnum species with bog rosemary Andromeda polifolia, white beak-sedge Rhynchospora alba, deergrass Trichophorum cespitosum and bog myrtle Myrica gale also present. Mochrum Lochs hold the largest inland breeding colony of cormorants in Great Britain with some 343 breeding pairs recorded in May 2000. The lochs and surrounding habitats also provide one of the richest assemblages of breeding bird species in Wigtownshire of which there are 60 species within the SSSI. These include mallard, great-crested grebe, little grebe, tufted duck, red-breasted merganser, oystercatcher, lapwing, ringed plover, common sandpiper, redshank, common tern, gulls and various passerines.

It represents an intensive study, interrupted by World Wars I and II and now since my retirement from the Army, it has been full time. In my first book there were three points of dispair, all of which have now been resolved. (I) The name of the vessel in which Andrew Hannay came to America. (2) Locating the de­ scendants of the first son James and (3) The names of Andrew's forbears. It contained a record of Andrew Hannay and his de­ scendants, and information on the various branches in Scotland as found in the publications of the "Scottish Records Society", "Whose Who", "Burk's" and other authorities such as could be located in various libraries. Also brief records of several families of the name that we could not at that time identify. Since then there have been published two books on the family.

  • An Iron Age Crannog in South-West Scotland: Underwater Survey and Excavation at Loch Arthur
    Proc Soc Antiq Scot 141 (2011), 103–124 AN IRON AGE CRANNOG IN SOUTH-WEST SCOTLAND | 103 An Iron Age crannog in south-west Scotland: underwater survey and excavation at Loch Arthur Jon Henderson* and Graeme Cavers† ABSTRACT As part of the second phase of the South West Crannog Survey, the crannog in Loch Arthur, New Abbey, Dumfries and Galloway, was surveyed and small-scale excavations were carried out on submerged eroding deposits. The crannog was seen to be at threat from erosion for a number of reasons, including insect infestation, aquatic plants and wave action. The eroding deposits were sampled and their ecofactual content analysed and structural timbers from various positions in the crannog mound were radiocarbon dated. The results suggest that the site is a massive packwerk mound that was constructed in the second half of the 1st millennium BC, most likely in one event. After an apparent period of abandonment, the site was reoccupied in the later medieval period. INTRODUCTION crannogs generally, giving the study of the excavated deposits at Loch Arthur crannog Underwater survey, excavation and presented here an added importance in terms monitoring was conducted on an artificial of the overall development of crannog studies island or crannog in Loch Arthur from (Crone et al 2001). 2002 to 2004 as part of the second phase of the South West Scotland Crannog Survey (Henderson et al 2003; 2006).

Constable Ltd. Printers to the University of Edinburgh for the Scottish History Society 1960 Printed in Great Britain PREFACE This volume represents some ten years voluntary work undertaken for the National Register of Archives since that body was first formed. It has involved the examination, calendaring and indexing of all documents prior to the year 1600 of the following collections presently lodged in the Register House: Charters of the Earl of Galloway, Lochnaw (Agnew) Charters, Logan (McDowell) Charters, and Barnbarroch (Vaus) Charters; in addition to the following collections, still in private hands, Mochrum Park (Dunbar) Charters, Myrton (McCulloch) Charters, Monreith (Maxwell) Charters, the Craichlaw and Shennanton Papers, and the Cardoness and Kirkconnell Charters, as well as much unpublished material in the Scottish Record Office. I have to express my thanks to the owners and custodians for giving me the necessary access and facilities. In the presentation and editing of these documents I have received ready assistance from many quarters, but I would fail in my duty if I did not mention especially Mrs. A. I. Dunlop, LL.D., and Dr. Gordon Donaldson, who have ungrudgingly drawn on their wide experience as archivists, and Mr. Athol Murray, LL.B., of the Scottish Record Office, who has called my attention to documents and entries in the public records and even undertaken a search of the Registers of the Archbishops of York.
