I am also grateful to the British Council for granting me a scholarship which enabled me to study at the Institute of History, University of Oslo and to the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for financing an additional 3 months fieldwork in the Sunnmore Islands. My sincere thanks also go to Prof Ragni Piene who employed me on a part time basis thereby allowing me to spend an additional year in Oslo when I was without funding.

Thanks are likewise due to Dr H Kongsrud of the Norwegian State Archives and to Dr T Scmidt of the Place Name Institute, both of whom were generous with their time.

  • Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan
    Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan 2011 In 2010 the Ross of Mull (including Pennyghael and Tiroran) and Iona were identified by Highlands and Islands Enterprise as being an area which could receive support through their Growth at the Edge (GatE) programme. This involved supporting an anchor organisation, in this case Mull and Iona Community Trust, to facilitate community growth through the employment of a Local Development Officer and the creation of a Community Plan based on consultation with the local community and a socio-economic analysis. The project is funded by Highlands and Islands Enterprise & LEADER. The document will always be open to suggestions and changes from the community and should not be regarded as being inflexible. Pennyghael village, A. MacCallum 2 Contents Introduction 4 How the plan was created 5 Our vision 6 Our Outcomes 6 Section 1 Population 7 Section 2 Physical Infrastructure 8 Section 3 Business, Employment & Economy 11 Section 4 Culture and Heritage 14 Section 5 Community Facilities & Social Infrastructure 16 How does the plan fit with European, national and local priorities 18 Timeline 20 Kilvickeon Beach 3 Introduction “It is a beautiful place to be brought up and you get to know everyone really well.” Oban High School Pupil About the plan In creating this plan, we aim to define our scope of activities over the next 5-10 years and give you an insight into how wide our ambitions are to be a sustainable community and where we, as a community, intend to go. The plan is an opportunity for our communities to control our development and implement projects, which will be of direct benefit to the Ross of Mull and Iona.

  • Mull April 2011
    Mull 23rd - 30th April 2011 – Chris Barlow A long overdue birding holiday to Mull spending a week with the family based in a self catering cottage (Kellan Mill) on the shore of Loch Na Keal. Rain on the first morning, dry warm and sunny although windy for the week except 28th when still and cloudy. Sites visited during the week Loch Na Keal, 24th & 25th Pulling in anywhere round the loch often proved rewarding, each bay held a pair of Great Northern Divers in the first part of the week, the scrub and small patches of reeds held increasing numbers of vocal warblers and Cuckoos were heard regularly. Oystercatchers and Whimbrels were common but the star of the area was undoubtedly the White-tailed Eagles, with 2 adults and a 1st year juvenile both seen in flight together one afternoon and another seen regularly especially when the wildlife cruise boat was around on the Friday morning when it went to the boat 4 times, we opted out of paying £30 for the trip after watching from the shore on Monday when it went for a single fish and took that a long way from the boat. Calgary, 25th & 26th 2 Great Northern Divers from the old ruined pier was the highlight here. A very vocal Song Thrush sang throughout the morning of the 26th and a male Whitethroat made his presence known at the foot of the cliffs by the pier. Sand Martins were nesting in the dunes. Tobermory area & Aros Park 26th & 29th North of Tobermory gave us our first glimpses of Hen Harriers while the Forestry Commission site of Aros Park just south of the town gave outstanding views of Wood Warblers which favoured the area around the south of the loch and a singing Tree Pipit in the open area found by following the path up the hill just past the play area at the northern end.
