Recommendation 16 of the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry Report stated: “That all possible steps should be taken by Police Services at local level in consultation with local Government and other agencies and local communities to encourage the reporting of racist incidents and crimes. This should include: The ability to report at locations other than police stations; and The ability to report 24 hours a day” Giving members of the public this safe, confidential and supportive environment to report incidents in order to encourage a greater number of reports. Several organisations were approached by Police/nominated themselves as a Third Party reporting centre see list.

  • Remembering the Strathpeffer Area: 1. Jamestown
    Remembering the Strathpeffer Area: 1. Jamestown During 2015 people gathered at Strathpeffer Community Centre and Achterneed Hall to remember the physical remains of the Strathpeffer area – Jamestown, Strathpeffer, the Heights, Achterneed and Milnain – focussing on buildings, sites, or monuments which were new, modified or no longer there. They built on previous sessions which had begun to look at Strathpeffer. Using old maps, photographs (some more than a century old), various printed sources, and memories spanning over 80 years, information about over 350 sites was gathered. Some pupils from the school joined us as well for Strathpeffer sessions as part of their project investigating World War II. This report summarises the results of the meetings focussing on Jamestown, with a few extra memories of places further west. The details have also been forwarded to heritage databases: the Highland Council Historic Environment Record (HER) (her.highland.gov.uk) and Historic Environment Scotland’s Canmore (canmore.org.uk) where they will provide valuable new information about the heritage of the area. The 2015 sessions were part of a project organised by ARCH and Strathpeffer Community Centre, and funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Mackenzie New York Villa Trust. Funding for the smaller projects in previous years was provided by Generations Working Together and High Life Highland. Thanks also to the Highland Museum of Childhood for allowing us to see text panels from their 2009 ‘Hands Across the Sea’ exhibition. But most of all thanks to everyone who has shared their memories and photographs, often braving difficult weather. Any additions or corrections should be sent to ARCH at [email protected] or The Goods Shed, The Old Station, Strathpeffer, IV14 9DH.

    The Edinburgh Geologist No .22 Spring 1989 Incorporating the Proceedings of the Edinburgh Geological Society 154th Session 1987-1988 The Strathpeffer Spa THE EDINBURGH GEOLOGIST No. 22 Spring 1989 Incorporating the Proceedings of the Edinburgh Geological Society 154th Session 1987 -1988 Acknowledgements The cover illustration is the pump house at Strathpeffer, from Black's Picturesque Guide to Scotland, 1875. Published by The Edinburgh Geological Society c/o British Geological Survey, West Mains Road, Edinburgh EH9 3LA, Scotland ISSN 0265-7244 Price £1.00 net Printed by the Edinburgh University Computing Service, University of Edinburgh, Kings Buildings, Edinburgh EH9 3JF. Typeset by Data Services. Editorial Issue 22 of the Edinburgh Geologist is the first to incorporate the Proceedings of the Society (for the 1987-1988 session). Council has decided that there should be two issues of the Edinburgh Geologist each year. The spring issue will normally include the Proceedings for the session that ended the previous September and the Autumn issue will follow the well-established format seen in editions I to 21. The current edition includes an account of the mineral springs of Strathpeffer by Ben Peach and John Horn, which first saw the light of day in 1900, and has recently been rediscovered by Nick Robins and Andrew McMillan. The Proceedings section includes an obituary to a much respected former President of the Society, Dr Walter (Wally) Mykura; as well as a record of meetings for the 154th session of the society. In combining the Proceedings within the Edinburgh Geologist, I am very grateful to my predecessors, David Land and David Stephenson, who have been largely responsible for the production of the present issue.
