Introduction the Place-Names in This Book Were Collected As Part of The
Introduction The place-names in this book were collected as part of the Arts and Humanities Research Board-funded (AHRB) ‘Norse-Gaelic Frontier Project, which ran from autumn 2000 to summer 2001, the full details of which will be published as Crawford and Taylor (forthcoming). Its main aim was to explore the toponymy of the drainage basin of the River Beauly, especially Strathglass,1 with a view to establishing the nature and extent of Norse place-name survival along what had been a Norse-Gaelic frontier in the 11th century. While names of Norse origin formed the ultimate focus of the Project, much wider place-name collection and analysis had to be undertaken, since it is impossible to study one stratum of the toponymy of an area without studying the totality. The following list of approximately 500 names, mostly with full analysis and early forms, many of which were collected from unpublished documents, has been printed out from the Scottish Place-Name Database, for more details of which see Appendix below. It makes no claims to being comprehensive, but it is hoped that it will serve as the basis for a more complete place-name survey of an area which has hitherto received little serious attention from place-name scholars. Parishes The parishes covered are those of Kilmorack KLO, Kiltarlity & Convinth KCV, and Kirkhill KIH (approximately 240, 185 and 80 names respectively), all in the pre-1975 county of Inverness-shire. The boundaries of Kilmorack parish, in the medieval diocese of Ross, first referred to in the medieval record as Altyre, have changed relatively little over the centuries.

The Wester Ross Marine Protected Area Guide
Wester Ross MPA © Neil MacGregor The Wester Ross Marine Protected Area Guide The Wester Ross Marine Protected Area (MPA) was designated in July 2014 to protect diverse and fragile seabed habitats and to enable the recovery of protected species like maerl (a pink seaweed) and flame shell beds. Maerl and flame shell beds are vital to the health of the local marine ecosystem, and they support local fisheries such as scallops, cod and keystone species like herring. Within the intricate mosaic of tidal bays, sea lochs and scattered island channels, the MPA encompasses a host of Priority Marine Features (PMFs), including kelp forests, burrowed mud with seapens, burrowing sea cucumbers and northern feather stars, which have MPA protection. Other important PMFs include seagrass meadows, horse mussels, salmon and sea trout. The coastal environment also supports a wide range of sea birds and marine mammals. Many of these species are unique to Scotland, and the Wester Ross MPA is one of the few areas in Scotland with such exceptional marine biodiversity, still partly intact. Indeed, the abundance of maerl beds within the Wester Ross MPA are of global significance. Flame shells © Andy Jackson Scallop hidden in maerl bed © Andy Jackson Fisheries management measures for the Wester Ross MPA were ratified in 2016 through an official Marine Conservation Order. This involves an MPA-wide ban on scallop dredging, giving umbrella protection to the ecosystem, which benefits marine tourism, low impact fishing and angling. Unfortunately, illegal fishing within the protected area threatens the unique and fragile marine environment, but you can make a difference.

S. S. N. S. Norse and Gaelic Coastal Terminology in the Western Isles It
3 S. S. N. S. Norse and Gaelic Coastal Terminology in the Western Isles It is probably true to say that the most enduring aspect of Norse place-names in the Hebrides, if we expect settlement names, has been the toponymy of the sea coast. This is perhaps not surprising, when we consider the importance of the sea and the seashore in the economy of the islands throughout history. The interplay of agriculture and fishing has contributed in no small measure to the great variety of toponymic terms which are to be found in the islands. Moreover, the broken nature of the island coasts, and the variety of scenery which they afford, have ensured the survival of a great number of coastal terms, both in Gaelic and Norse. The purpose of this paper, then, is to examine these terms with a Norse content in the hope of assessing the importance of the two languages in the various islands concerned. The distribution of Norse names in the Hebrides has already attracted scholars like Oftedal and Nicolaisen, who have concen trated on establis'hed settlement names, such as the village names of Lewis (OftedaI1954) and the major Norse settlement elements (Nicolaisen, S.H.R. 1969). These studies, however, have limited themselves to settlement names, although both would recognise that the less important names also merit study in an intensive way. The field-work done by the Scottish Place Name Survey, and localised studies like those done by MacAulay (TGSI, 1972) have gone some way to rectifying this omission, but the amount of material available is enormous, and it may be some years yet before it is assembled in a form which can be of use to scholar ship.
