  • The Big Kipper Presenter
    THE BIG KIPPER THE BIG KIPPER HE BIG The ripper of kippers. Scottish herring, heartily smoked for T a powerful Kintyre flavor. THE RIPPER OF KIPPERS, The ‘ripper of all kippers’, it’s conventionally called, SCOTTISH HERRING, HEARTILY SMOKED FOR A POWERFUL KINTYRE FLAVOUR The walrus and the carpenter, they were far from appalled, Smoked to perfection in the blazing kilns of The Kintyre Smokehouse ‘What’s all this fuss about?’, said the walrus merrily K R ‘This ain’t no little oyster’, said the carpenter with glee. IPP E The walrus smiled and answered ‘No, it’s really quite the herring!’ The carpenter exclaimed ‘On the contrary my friend…it’s the perfect food for sharing!’ Direct from the Mull of Kintyre – The Big Kipper is produced with pride in our Campbeltown smokehouse. Why not relax, loosen your belt buckles, and indulge in some of the finest smoked seafood known to man. Perfect with a dram, glass of wine or a nice little craft beer. Check out our website, www.kintyresmokehouse.com for some inspirational suggestions on food and drink pairings. BACKGROUND TO THE BRAND & COMPANY The Kintyre Smokehouse was born from one man’s absolute passion for producing fine smoked Scottish seafood and cheese. Founder, Archie Macmillan of Macmillan Foods, magically turned what was once an old dilapidated kipper house, into something really quite extraordinary. Archie’s uncanny flair for dreaming up beautiful unique recipes and turning them into wonderful creations could be mistaken by many as some form of gastronomic alchemy. Married with his high degree of technical and engineering expertise, the quality and succulent taste of the product range are a clear result of Archie’s 50 plus years of experience and absolute dedication to the Scottish seafood industry.

Scotland is home to over 130 malt and grain distilleries, making it the greatest MAP OF concentration of whisky producers in the world. Many of the Scotch Whisky distilleries featured on this map bottle some of their production for sale as Single Malt (i.e. the product of one distillery) or Single Grain Whisky.

In issning the seventh edition of the Helensburgh Direc- tory, the publishers, remembering the kind apprecia- tion it received when published by the late Mr Battrum, trust that it will meet with a similar reception. Although imperfect in many respects, considerabie care has been expended in its compiling. It is now larger than anj^ previous issue, and the publishers doubt not it will be found useful as a book of reference in this daily increasing district. The map this year has been improved, showing the new feus, houses, and streets that have been made ; and, altogether, every effort has been made to render tbe Directory worthy of the town and neighbourhood.

  • DUNOON and COWAL Profile
    www.argyll-bute.gov.uk DUNOON and COWAL Profile February 2019 Welcome to Dunoon - a town for the 21st century Dunoon is the main town on the Cowal Peninsuala, once a popular destination for holiday-makers from Glasgow up until the 1960s. The town has much to offer thanks to its close ties to the Central Belt by road, by ferry and digital infrastructure. The regeneration work, led by Argyll and Bute Council, is not simply restoring the town to its former glory, but creating a town fit for 21st century citizens. The marvellous wooden pier has already undergone its first phase of refurbishment. The iconic Queens Hall is being remodelled at a total cost of £8m to create exciting gathering spaces for local residents and visitors, both inside and out. Incorporating a new public realm and road layout, this will revitalise the access to the town centre. Over the next five years, a Conservation Area Regeneration project will upgrade key buildings in the town centre to improve the route between the newly refurbished Burgh Hall and the Queens Hall. Historic Environment Scotland is providing £1,002,348 of grant funding and Argyll and Bute Council is providing £500,000 of match funding. The total projected budget, including owners’ contributions, is over £1,889,000. Council infrastructure The council is leading a project entitled Smarter Places which is looking at the use of public sector buildings in the town to co-locate and revitalise the town centre. This includes plans for an advice hub situated on the main bus route in or around Dolphin Hall.
