  • 2010 Air Quality Progress Report for Falkirk Council
    2010 Air Quality Progress Report for Falkirk Council. In fulfillment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management July 2010 Falkirk Council - Scotland July 2010 Local Jon Flitney Authority Officer Department Environmental Health Address Abbotsford House, David’s Loan, Falkirk, FK2 7YZ. Telephone 01324 504950 e-mail [email protected] Report Progress Report 2010 Reference Date July 2010 2 Progress Report - 2010 Falkirk Council - Scotland July 2010 Executive Summary A review of the Council’s monitoring data for 2009 shows that the 15-minute objective continues to be breached in the Grangemouth AQMA. In 2009 the Grangemouth Moray site recorded 65 exceedances. This is greater than the 35 allowed by the objective. All SO 2 monitors outside the AQMA met the 15-minute objective, with all sites meeting the hourly and daily SO 2 objectives. A breach of the 2010 annual PM 10 objective was recorded at the Falkirk West Bridge St site in 2009. This result will be used in the Falkirk Town Centre Further Assessment. Therefore the Council will wait for this report to be completed before considering whether to adjust the current AQMA. Since the 2009 USA the Council has declared three AQMAs for NO 2, two are in Falkirk Town Centre and one in the Haggs and Banknock area. In addition, the Banknock area near Cowdenhill Quarry remains subject to a Detailed Assessment for PM 10 . An Action Plan update for the Grangemouth AQMA is given. The Council continues to work on the measures outlined in the plan. In addition, a statement by INEOS about their tail gas treatment and other SO 2 emission reduction work is also included in this report.

  • Central Regional Council Finding Aid
    Falkirk Archives (Archon Code: GB558) FALKIRK ARCHIVES Local authority records Central Regional Council Finding Aid The main records of Central Regional Council are held by Stirling Council Archives, 5 Borrowmeadow Rd, Springkerse Industrial Estate, Stirling. However, some duplicate records and some records which relate to current Falkirk Council area have been disaggregated from Stirling and are held in Falkirk so that the records can be held as locally as possible. Central Regional Council was set up under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973. Under the Act a two tier system of local government was instituted with regional councils responsible for regional wide functions. Regions had responsibility for education, social work, roads and road safety, public transport, careers service, highways lighting, trading standards, weights and measures, water and sewerage, flood prevention, coast protection, fire services, police services, civil defence, diseases of animals, strategic planning, industrial promotion, valuations and rating, electoral registration, registration of births, marriages and deaths, and industrial development (in co-operation with Districts) The Act established nine regional councils and 53 district councils along with three islands councils (Orkney, Shetland and Western Isles) which were responsible for the functions of both district and regional councils. The regional councils were instituted in 1974 and acted as shadow authorities until 1975 when they assumed full powers. Regional councils and district councils were abolished under the Local Government etc (Scotland) Act, 1994 (c. 39). They were replaced in 1996 by a single tier form of local government with Central Regional Council covered the geographic area of Falkirk, Clackmannan and Stirling District Councils unitary authorities.

  • Stirling County Building Warrants
    Falkirk Archives (Archon Code: GB558) FALKIRK ARCHIVES Local authority records Stirling County Council Building Warrants Finding Aid Administrative History The origins of building standards were in the Dean of Guild Courts of the medieval Royal Burghs. Their powers to hear offences against neighbourliness gradually evolved into modern planning and building control regulations. From 1862 Town Councils were permitted to set up Dean of Guild Courts and from 1892 all town councils were required to set up Dean of Guild Courts. The Dean of Guild Courts had powers to impose conditions relating to public health under the 1862 Police Act. County Councils had similar powers from 1889. Scope and Contents Building warrant files, building warrant application registers and annotated Ordnance Survey maps, for the geographical area formerly administered by Stirling County Council and now administered by Falkirk Council. Building warrant files contain the plans, petitions (ie applications), completions certificates, correspondence and related papers submitted to the local authority for permission to build or to make structural alterations to domestic and public buildings under successive building control and building standards legislation. The Registers provide a summary list of applications and their outcome. Arrangement Stirling County Council building warrants from c 1900-1964 were separated into geographical areas and this order has been maintained. The red area covers the south and east of the former County of Stirling, including Shieldhill, Polmont and the Braes. The yellow area covers the areas around Bonnybridge, Denny and Dunipace. The blue area covers Airth, Larbert and Stenhousemuir. However it should be noted that some building warrant files were put into the “wrong” colour-coded area and there has been no attempt to correct this.

  • Before the Bridges” Crossing the Firth of Forth in Earlier Times
    9. “Before the Bridges” Crossing the Firth of Forth in earlier times. Bruce B Bishop FSA Scot, ASGRA The Firth of Forth has always been a barrier to north-south trade and travel in the east of Scotland. Until the building of the Kincardine Bridge in the 1930’s, the lowest crossing-point on the Firth of Forth was the ford at Cambuskenneth, and later the bridge at Stirling. This gave rise to numerous ferries along the nearly 60-mile length of the tidal Firth. Along the northern shore of the Firth ferries ran from Alloa, Kincardine, Culross, North Queensferry, Burntisland, Kinghorn and Pettycur, Kirkcaldy and Earlsferry. These ferries served places of the south shore such as Thrisk, Kersie and Higgin’s Neuk at Airth, Borrowstounness, South Queensferry, Granton, Leith and North Berwick. The “narrow passage” ferries operated from harbours to the west of Burntisland, whilst to the east the crossings were known as “the broad passage”. There were also of course many less formal ferries operated by local boatmen as and when the business opportunities arose. The North Queensferry crossing had been in use since the 11th century, and had always been the main route, being the shortest crossing with Inch Garve as a refuge half way across if needed. Another, but much longer crossing, was between the Earlsferry at Elie and North Berwick, more commonly used by pilgrims travelling to St Andrews. During the 17th and early 18th centuries the numerous ferries became concentrated into fewer and fewer harbours as the size of the ferries increased. But the shorter Queensferry crossing, being on the line of the ‘Great North Road’, was always the most popular one.
