Background Cares Case Study CarES CaSE STUdY kyle of Sutherland development Trust background Kyle of Sutherland Development Trust was established in June 2011 to support and encourage sustainable activity in the Kyle of Sutherland. The Kyle of Sutherland, comprising communities within Ardgay & District and Creich Community Council areas, had been in economic decline since 1991 when the opening of the Dornoch Bridge and improvements to the A9 meant less visitors were passing through the area. The Trust was created as a response to local needs and concerns about the future of the area and to the opportunities beginning to emerge from community benefit funds pledged by onshore wind farm developers. It is now well established and works to strengthen the local community, supporting local groups to improve the services they offer and providing a sustainable community development service in the area. It also works with others to secure inward investment. Since it was set up, the Trust has secured funding for a range of projects from community benefit funds, linked to onshore wind farms in the local area.

This included a further award from the E.ON Rosehall Community Fund of £15,000 in 2014 to help develop signage and branding for the Visitor Centre. A key condition of the contract for building the new Centre was that, where possible, any sub-contractors should come from the local area and the main contractor was encouraged to take on a local apprentice.

CarES CaSE STUdY “The buy-out has enabled us to safeguard the post office in Bonar Bridge for the future. This will allow continued provision of the current services for people living in the Kyle of Sutherland. The community from the outset has shown its faith in the Trust and this is the very best result.” Since 2011, community benefit funds from onshore wind helped Kyle of Sutherland Development Trust to secure a total of £5.5 million in key inward investment to the local area which might not have happened otherwise.

    KYLE OF SUTHERLAND ANGLING ASSOCIATION. VIRTUAL GHILLIE SALMON The Kyle of Sutherland offers some of the finest Salmon estuary fishing in the country. when the weather is dry, and the rivers are low, salmon congregate in the Kyle, where they can be taken on the fly.The Kyle fishes best from the top of the tide to the end of the ebb. Knowing exactly when these times are is a bit of an art - but the tides are usually aboul 2 hours later at the top of the Kyle.There is a lot of water to cover - over 14 miles - but most anglers concentrate on a few areas - sometimes neglecting other stretches which can be productive! G The Estuary Below Bonar Bridge, the Kyle divides. The left (North) stream is the main one and carries most fish. Spinning and fly fishing are allowed and the water can be fished from both banks. The Left bank can be approached from below the bridge, or from the walk, a hundred yards downstream. Be particularly careful wading here; the bottom is round, slippery stones and the current can be very fast. From the Right bank you also have access to the mud flats. These can also be productive, although you should watch out for soft mud, particularly below the road between Ardgay and Bonar Bridge. Be careful too, when wading here - the water can drop away suddenly close to the shore. The Walkway - Beat A Directly above the Bridge, on the South Bank, is the old netsmen's walkway. lt fishes from the top to the slipway below the bothy.

  • The Making of a Frontier: Thefirthlands from the Ninth to Twelfth Centuries
    THE MAKING OF A FRONTIER: THEFIRTHLANDS FROM THE NINTH TO TWELFTH CENTURIES Barbara E. Crawford The clash between Norse and Scots (or Picts) was a perennial feature of the northern and western parts of this country for most of the Middle Ages. Wherever the Norseman settled he came into contact, and most probably conflict, with the indigenous population. Although the apparent dis­ appearance of the Picts in the Northern Isles is something of a mystery, it does not seem likely that they disappeared without putting up at least a show of resistance. But the impact of the Norse was so overwhelming that the Pictish population failed to retain any hold of their lands in those islands. The Hebrides provide rather more evidence of resistance at the outset, and then intermingling between the native Gaelic population and the Norse raiders and settlers. But native Gaelic culture re-asserted itself, and Scottish political control was established by the medieval kings of Scotland, ambitious to control the islands round their coasts. The north Scottish mainland provides an area where Norse and Scots also clashed although it was never, in recorded history, under Norwegian political control. However both Caithness and Sutherland were firmly under the rule of the Norwegian earls of Orkney until their power was undermined by the advancing Scottish kings in the thirteenth century. The earls' political control was based on widespread settlement by Norse­ speaking peoples as far south as the Dornoch Firth or Kyle of Sutherland, so that to all intents and purposes the territory north of that waterway was part of the Norse world from the ninth to the thirteenth century.
