PREFACE. ACTING upon the suggestion of the retiring Master and other prominent members of the Lanarkshire and Renfrewshire Hunt, I have ventured to produce an historical record which it is hoped will meet with the appreciation of those interested. For the description of the sport of the past twenty seasons I am greatly indebted to the diaries so perfectly kept by the late Mr. J. J. Barclay, which were kindly placed at my disposal by Mr. G. Barclay. Without such a valuable asset no work of this kind could ever have been attempted, and I have made the fullest possible use of these records, so that sportsmen and sportswomen of the last quarter of a century can refresh their memory in regard to the many great runs enjoyed during that period. I hope I have succeeded in an effort to furnish a complete and unvarnished account of the doings of the pack, together with a history of the Hunt since its origin. Possibly, at some future time, another enthusiast will take up the pen and bring the records up to date. Harry Judd (" Tantivy "). CONTENTS.

  • Renfrew~H I Re Local H I 3Tory
    RLHF Journal Vol.2 (1990) 2. Renfrewshire's historic monuments - a heritage under threat: A summary of local archaeological problems with a bibliography and brief site list. Gordon McCrae It is said that the past is another country. If this is true, the more distant past often seems like an alien planet. The recent welcome flood of books and pamphlets about the history of our area has done little to change this perception. The study and reinterpretation of medieval, Roman and prehistoric Renfrewshire remains sadly neglected. This may be due, in part, to the problems which confront a local historian trying to make sense of the archaeological record. These problems include (a) - lack of a current bibliography of sources, or an accessible site list, for use as an introduction to local monuments; (b) the fact that much important information is only available in out-of-print books and obscure periodicals; (c) the difficulty of dealing with the large gaps in the archaeological record; which is compounded by (d) ,recent wholesale reinterpretation of classes of monuments due to advances in archaeological techniques. Finally (e) the scientific and technical nature of these techniques which make them the exclusive preserve of 'experts'. Another persistent problem, since the demise of the Renfrewshire Archaeological Society, has been the lack of a local forum for people interested in discussion, fieldwork and preservation. Various bodies have sponsored investigations over the years - Paisley Museum, Glasgow Archaeological Society, Renfrewshire Natural History Society, The Ancient Monuments Inspectorate, The Ordnance Survey, and, more recently, the Regional Archaeologist and the Scottish Urban Archaeological Trust.

  • Headington, Bridge of Weir
    M209 Headington, Bridge of Weir Introduction This large, L-shaped, roughcast detached house with curved gabled dormers derived from 17th-century Scottish vernacular architecture, is located in the affluent Renfrewshire commuter village of Bridge of Weir. It was built for Alfred Allison Todd, partner in Dunn & Todd, a Glasgow firm of chartered accountants. Authorship: Drawings showing a slightly different treatment of the house were in Mackintosh's possession at the time of his death, and suggest that he contributed to an early stage of the design process. The plan, materials and historical references have parallels with Windyhill and The Hill House, but the house was built according to drawings signed by John Keppie, and it seems likely that Keppie had overall control of the design. Alternative names: Easter Hill; Easterhill. Cost from job book: £2899 4s 8d Status: Standing building Current name: Easterhill Current use: Residential (2014) Listing category: B: Listed as 'Easterhill' Historic Scotland/HB Number: 12775 RCAHMS Site Number: NS36SE 74 Grid reference: NS 39620 64997 Chronology 1902 April: Earliest date on drawings submitted to County of Renfrew Second or Lower District Master of Works department. 1 8 May: Contractor tenders accepted. 2 14 May: Application to build submitted to County of Renfrew Second or Lower District. 3 13 June: Plans approved by County of Renfrew Second or Lower District. 4 1905 20 April: Final payments to main contractors. 5 Description Origin and names Alfred Todd commissioned John Honeyman & Keppie to design a cottage at Bridge of Weir in 1898. However, that project appears to have been abandoned following the tendering process.

  • Agricultural Workers Renfrewshire
    RLHF Journal Vol.1 (1989) 1. Down To Earth Agricultural Workers in Renfrewshire Christopher C. Lee There are three important considerations in mind when discussing the question of farm workers in Renfrewshire and all three are interrelated. Agrarian studies in the west of Scotland form a relatively neglected area of historiography. The east coast has always attracted more attention and its experiences are often used to make generalisations about Scottish agriculture. It is the case, however, that farming in the west is very different. The differences concern the size of farms, patterns of employment and farm architecture. The second consideration which stems largely from the first is that the number of farm workers in the west and in counties like Renfrewshire was much smaller than in other parts of the country. This was dictated by the fact that, in general, west coast farms were smaller than those in the east and were pastoral rather than arable. Pastoral farming is less labour intensive. An important factor was also present in the competition for labour provided by the development of industry in large urban areas like Glasgow and Paisley and indeed in the villages like Lochwinnoch, Kilbarchan and Johnstone. The third and final consideration is that it has to be remembered when we are studying agricultural workers that we are always working at one remove from our subjects. This was after all a transient and often migratory workforce; they left few records. It has to be said, however, that this was a characteristic of the farming community in general. A gentleman farmer may have had the time to keep letters, diaries and accounts but few working farmers did.

Sadly Bishop Kevin is still living in Oban and will be moving as soon it is possible for him to move into the Bishop’s house. We also begin August in Phase 3 of the unlock and we are going to be starting services in church again – they will be controlled and different, and you will need to book your place to come along at St Margaret’s. If you don’t book your seat you will not be allowed until those who have booked arrive and if there are not free spaces you will be turned away from that service. More details are inside so please look carefully so you can come along safely. We will all have lots of opinions about the release of lockdown and our Vestries are the legal responsible bodies for ensuring National Guidance is implemented. We do not know how long this will last for. We have to be patient and behave in ways that do not promote another lockdown either locally or nationally. As we come out of lockdown there will be much frustration – things will not go back to normal anywhere. Life has changed. We need to look out for each other in new ways in order to keep ourselves as safe as possible. Church is part of society not different from society. Rev Reuben Preston – Rector Online Sunday Services that we have joined in… “Finding Jesus with George Productions ” - (FJwGP) As we look to beginning to inhabit our buildings again we need to say a big thank you to Stephen & George for their patience and forbearance during the making of our Finding Jesus with George Productions.
