  • Excavations at Craigievar Castle, Aberdeenshire Moira K Greig* with Contributions by Colvin Greig, Bill Lindsay, Stewart Thain & Gordon Williamson
    Proc Antiqc So Scot,(1993)3 12 , 381-93, fiche 2:B1-C4 Excavations at Craigievar Castle, Aberdeenshire Moira K Greig* with contributions by Colvin Greig, Bill Lindsay, Stewart Thain & Gordon Williamson ABSTRACT In the summer of 1990 the National Trust for Scotland funded an excavation to increase their knowledge of Craigievar Castle. This excavation revealed the remains of the east wall and part of the south wall of the original barmkin, along with two contemporary stone drains and a few post-holes. The excavation also recovered coins, pottery and glass. INTRODUCTION Aberdeenshire, now part of Grampian Region, is well known for its great castles. Of the later castles, built in the 17th century, many carried on the tradition of building a contiguous courtyard, or barmkin, although the defensive need for its surrounding wall was rarely required by that time. Today most of these castles have lost their barmkins or have only fragmentary remains, and little is known about their design (for the Lowlands, see Good & Tabraham 1988). However t Craigievaa , r Castlee paristh f n Leochel-Cushnii o h, J (N e 56670748), there exist almosn sa t complete stretc barmkif ho n wall. No contemporary records are known to exist that describe the interior of the courtyard t Craigievara , althoug assumn ca e ehon that there were stable byresd san brewerya , smithya , , and other necessary buildings. There are, however, within the castle, two 18th-century plans which, though differing in some of the structural details that they depict, do show definitive evidence of a barmkin wall enclosing a courtyard with internal buildings.

  • A2B Dial-A-Bus Proposed Changes, Community Fund, Water Supplies, and More
    Subscribe Past Issues Translate View this email in your browser Dear All, A message from Aberdeenshire Council for people with private water supplies. There are parts of Aberdeenshire where water levels are at what is described as 'significant scarcity' by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency, which means that there may be pressure on water supplies. Please keep using water wisely. We are working with Scottish Water and the Scottish Government to provide bottled water and tanks to those whose private supply is running dry, at no cost. This would normally be something that we would expect owners to source themselves, but these are not normal circumstances. We are prioritising requests from those more vulnerable in the first instance. If you need help, please contact the council by emailing [email protected] or phoning 01467 539539 (during office hours). The Environmental Health Service will respond as quickly as possible to your enquiry. Long term, the service is providing advice on looking at future solutions such as support to help connect to the mains. If that is not possible, improvements to the current source or forming a new supply can be considered. Grants may be available for some of this work. There are over 7500 private water supplies in Aberdeenshire serving approximately 11500 properties. This is by far the highest number of any local authority in Scotland. There is some useful advice online here: http://www.scottishwater.co.uk/you-and-your-home/your-home/water-efficiency A2B Dial-a-bus proposed changes. Please see below the proposed changes to A2B dial-a-bus services in particular the suggestion that the Braemar – Ballater – Banchory service be withdrawn.
