Scottish Natural Heritage FACTS and FIGURES 1996-97 Scottish Natural Heritage FACTS AND FIGURES 1996-97 Working with Scotland’s people to care for our natural heritage PREFACE SNH Facts and Figures 1996/97, contains a range of useful facts and statistics about SNH’s work and is a companion publication to our Annual Report. SNH came into being on 1 April 1992, and in our first Annual Report we published an inventory of Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs). After an interval of five years it is appropriate to now update this inventory. We have also provided a complete Scottish listing of National Nature Reserves, National Scenic Areas, European sites and certain other types of designation. As well as the information on sites, we have also published information on our successes during 1996/97 including partnership funding of projects, details of grants awarded, licences issued and our performance in meeting our standards for customer care. We have also published a full list of management agreements concluded in 1996/97. We hope that those consulting this document will find it a useful and valuable record. We are committed to being open in the way we work and if there is additional information you require, contact us, either at any local offices (detailed in the telephone directory) or through our Public Affairs Branch, Scottish Natural Heritage, 12 Hope Terrace, Edinburgh EH9 2AS.

Through Natural Standards we promise to deliver good quality services and to foster customer care in everything we do. One of our commitments under Natural Standards is to monitor how quickly we respond to enquiries. The majority of queries fall into eight broad categories: information & advice; publications; grants; consultations; licences; permits; objections to SSSI notifications; and management agreements. Each category has its own standards as regards to how long a reply should take. These are set out in our Natural Standards leaflet which is available free of charge from any of our offices. The table below outlines our performance for 1996/97. Natural Standards Category Total Contacts Within Standards Information & Advice 75,541 97% Consultations 2,734 96% Grants 1,448 94% Publications 2,351 99% Licences 180 91% Permits 286 100% Management Agreements 95 93% There were no objections to SSSI notification recorded in 1996/97. In 1996/97 we received a total of 82,635 contacts; nearly all enquiries were answered on the same day, and where further action was required we met the required standards more than 95% of the time. The majority of enquiries sought information or advice and here our standards were even higher; again most enquiries were satisfied immediately and for the 11,316 that were not, a final response was supplied within the standards’ targets on 97% of occasions. 2 SNH responses to Government & other national consultations 1 April 1996 - 31 March 1997 Sender Government Topic Date Final Yes/No received Response The Scottish Office y Crofting trusts: Secretary of State’s 07/02/96 29/04/96 Agriculture, consultation paper Environment and Fisheries Department (SOAEFD) SOAEFD y Draft NPPG - skiing developments 23/02/96 17/04/96 SOAEFD y Conservation measures for scallops 01/03/96 30/04/96 SOAEFD y Proposed Removal of Statutory Control on 11/03/96 11/04/96 Viral Haemorhagic Disease (VHD) of Rabbits SOAEFD y Scottish Countryside Premium Scheme 11/03/96 01/05/96 Consultation Paper Sustrans n National Cycle Network Guidelines and 11/03/96 24/07/96 Practical Details SOAEFD y Fishing vessels Decommissioning Scheme 15/03/96 11/04/96 SOAEFD y Shellfish Health proposed Establishment of 19/00/96 11/04/96 Approved Zones in Great Britain Free from Bonamia and Mateilia The Scottish Office y Draft practice for Local plan inquiries 25/03/96 03/05/96 Development in Scotland Department (SODD) SOAEFD y Scotland’s Coast: A Discussion Paper 01/04/96 05/07/96 The Scottish n Commission on the Future of the Voluntary Council for Voluntary Sector in Scotland 29/04/96 19/06/96 Organisations (SCVO ) Marine Safety Agency y Lord Donaldson’s Recommendation 50 The 08/05/96 Reply Direct Seaway Code East Scotland Water n Consultation on the Preparation of Our 09/05/96 29/05/96 Corporate Plan Historic Scotland y Protecting The Built Heritage A Green Paper 24/05/96 30/09/96 Home Office y Consultation Paper on the EC Data Protection 03/06/96 17/07/96 Directive (95/46/EC) SODD y Draft National Planning Policy Guideline 03/06/96 25/07/96 Transport and Planning SOAEFD y Fisheries Conservation Group 05/06/96 Answered by English Nature & JNCC Inland Waterways n Britain’s Inland Waterways An Undervalued 03/06/96 16/08/96 Amenity Advisory Asset Council SODD y Review of Town & Country Planning System 12/06/96 Reply Direct in Scotland Consultation on Proposed Changes to The Town & Country Planning (Inquiries Procedures) (Scotland) 1980 SOAEFD y National Air Quality Strategy 18/06/96 05/07/96 Forestry Commission y The UK Forestry Standard 25/06/96 27/09/96 The Scottish Office y On the Record in

GLASG 1)W. l!T PREFATORY NOTE AFTER the publication of the Records of the Clan ancl Narne of Fergiisson, Ferguson, and Fergus in 1895, the Editors received a number of communications from persons of the name resident in Canada, the United States, and elsewhere. There also reached them a considerable amount of additional information, illustrating the earlier history of the Clan, and indicating the common origin of various families. The discovery of papers at Pitfour a year after the book came out was followed by the appearance of His Grace the Duke of Atholl's Chronicles of the Fa1nilies of .Atholl and Tulliebardine, which gives many interesting particulars about the Olan in Athole, while the Editors have been placed in communication with the representa­ tives of other families, who had been unaware of, or omitted to contribute to the original volume. Ultimately in the spring of 1898 the Clan Fergusson Society authorised the preparation and publication of the present supplemen­ tary volume. The Editors have, as on the previous occasion, en­ deavoured to supply notices of the families dealt with from the pen of a member of the particular family.

  • FORT WILLIAM to MALLAIG Experience the Breathtaking Beauty of the Scottish Western Highlands Aboard the World-Famous Jacobite Steam Train and Its Vintage Carriages
    West Coast Railways Presents FAMOUS STEAM TRAIN 2021 Season FORT WILLIAM TO MALLAIG Experience the breathtaking beauty of the Scottish Western Highlands aboard the World-famous Jacobite Steam Train and its vintage carriages. “The World’s Greatest Railway Journey” THE JOURNEY Fort William to Mallaig Described as the greatest railway journey in the world, this 84 mile round trip takes you past a list of impressive extremes. Starting at the highest mountain in Britain, Ben Nevis, it visits Britain’s most westerly mainland railway station, Arisaig; passes close by the deepest freshwater loch in Britain, Loch Morar and the shortest river in Britain, River Morar, finally arriving next to the deepest seawater loch in Europe, Loch Nevis! The Train stops en route to Mallaig at the village of Glenfinnan. Beyond Glenfinnan are the beautiful villages of Lochailort, Arisaig, Morar and Mallaig. You may alight at Arisaig by request to the guard. From here, on a clear summer’s day, you can see the “Small Isles” of Rum, Eigg, Muck, Canna and the southern tip of Skye. The train continues on from here passing Morar and the silvery beaches used in the films “Highlander” and “Local Hero”. Come and join us and find out why! THE ROAD TO THE ISLES Following Harry Potter.... West Coast Railways, operators of ‘The Jacobite,’ provided the steam engine and carriages for the ‘Hogwarts Express’ as seen in ‘Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone’ and others in this wonderful series of films. Some of the carriages of ‘The Jacobite’ are similar to those used in the ‘Harry Potter’ films.

  • The Cairngorm Club Journal 013, 1899
    EXCURSIONS AND NOTES. CORRYHABBIE HILL, which was selected for the Club's COBRYHABBIE spring excursion on 1st May last, is fully described HILL. elsewhere, so that the chronicler for the day is ab- solved from all necessity of entering into topographical details. Probably the fact that the hill is little visited and is not very readily accessible led to a comparatively large attendance of members of the Club and friends, the company numbering 50. Pro- ceeding to Dufftown by an early train, the party, by special per- mission of the Duke of Richmond and Gordon, drove to Glenfiddich. Lodge, noting on the way, of course, the ruins of Auchindoun Castle. From the lodge to the summit of Corryhabbie is a walk of three miles —"three good miles", as many of the pedestrians remarked as they plodded along the rough bridle-path, which at times was deep in water and at other times thickly covered with snow, and then across the long and comparatively level plateau, rather wet and spongy and coated with soft snow. The summit had hardly been gained, how- ever, when the mist descended and obscured the view; and the party may be said to have seen little except Ben Rinnes and Glenrinnes on the one side and Cook's Cairn on the other. The customary formal meeting was held at the cairn on the summit—Rev. Robert Semple, the Chairman of the Club, presiding. Mr. Copland, deprived of the opportunity of "showing" the mountains enumerated in his list, read (from Dr. Longmuir's " Speyside ") an interesting account of the battle of Glenlivet.
