There is shooting and fishing to let locally, and the spa at Stobo Castle and Dawyck Botanic Garden are a short drive away. Description 2 Carnwath Mill Cottages dates back to the 1840s when it was used as a mill house. It was converted into a residential property in the 1990s. The property is a charming three bedroom house with beautiful open river and countryside views. The front door opens onto a welcoming hall with access to a useful cloakroom, and stairs to the first floor. To the left of the hall is the hub of the house, where a spacious and bright open plan kitchen with dining area is located. The dining area sits in front of large windows overlooking the front garden, while the kitchen features a log burning stove, larder and integrated appliances. To the left of the kitchen is a hall leading to two bedrooms, bathroom with free standing bath and walk in shower, and a deep linen cupboard. To the right of the kitchen is a utility room with airing cupboard, and access to the large double garage with back door. The garage space could offer a fantastic opportunity to be integrated into the house and transformed into further accommodation, subject to building consent. Off the first floor landing is a spacious and well-lit sitting room, with patio doors leading out onto a large decked balcony. Again, the outlook over the river and countryside beyond is lovely, A log burner provides additional cosy warmth in the winter months. A shower room and master bedroom with dressing room make up the rest of the first floor accommodation. The master bedroom’s dormer window and skylight allow plenty of natural light inside, as well as framing views over the front garden. Outside The driveway leading to the property is shared with the neighbouring property and provides additional parking space to the double garage. A gate opens up onto the gravel driveway to the garage, which is bordered by garden and pretty landscaped flowerbeds. A patio area is situated to the front of the property and provides a relaxing area for al fresco dining. The lawned garden has a range of fruit trees including plum, pear and apple, as well as gooseberry bushes, a greenhouse, the oil tank, mature trees along the low stone wall boundary, and steps down to the North Medwin River. Lush countryside provides serene views on the other side of the river. A path to the rear of the property provides space for the waste bins, and a gate leads out to the main drive for easy access.

  • Carnwath (Stage 1)
    Carnwath (Stage 1) Local Community Led Plan Carnwath Local Carnwath Community Led Plan Community 2006 Carnwath Action Plan Carnwath is one of 4 Communities which has been selected to take part in the preparation of a Community Led Plan for the future of their town/village. It is a new and exciting way for communities to become more involved in the Community Planning Process and to heighten awareness of the partners and processes involved in Community Planning. It is one of 15 pilot demonstration projects across Scotland, each of which is testing new ways of involving local people in Community Planning - a process through which local authorities and the main public sector agencies work together to establish a bottom-up approach to plan, prioritise, and deliver better public services with the involvement and assistance of local communities. This Local Community Action Plan is a result of an initiative by Communities Scotland, and is also supported by South Lanarkshire Rural Partnership Leader+. The project presents an opportunity for local residents to: become involved and contribute to the preparation of a community focused local plan better understand, participate in, and influence the Statutory Community Planning process make known their priorities for the town support Carnwath to organise and take forward some local initiatives by itself. The Plan itself is a tool through which the community of Carnwath can enter into dialogue with providers of services, and examine how improvements might be made. Moreover, it identifies a range of actions which the community itself can undertake through co-ordinated voluntary action. At the heart of this process is an understanding that - in the light of public sector finances becoming ever more tightly focused - the community which will flourish will have a clear and realistic idea of it’s future, a commitment to helping itself, and a spirit of local responsibility.

  • Carnwath Conservation Area Carnwath Conservation Area
    Community and Enterprise Resources Carnwath Conservation Area Carnwath Conservation Area Definition of a conservation area The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997 sets out the current legislative framework for the designation of conservation areas, defining conservation areas “as an area of special architectural or historical interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance.” Planning authorities are required to periodically determine which parts of their district merit designation as a conservation area. The historic core of Carnwath was designated a conservation area in 1982. This was primarily a response to the unique relationship of the buildings to each other and to spaces (street and lanes) in which they are contained or help to form. What does conservation area status mean? Designation of a conservation area does not mean development is prohibited. However, when considering development within a conservation area, special attention must be paid to its character and appearance. Greater control over development is available to us as a planning authority within a conservation area and the purpose of this is to protect and enhance the character and unique identity of Carnwath, from taking care with the treatment of details to the larger scale of requiring new extensions or buildings which are sympathetic to their surroundings. General description The main feature of Carnwath is the exceptionally long Main Street with its gentle curve and changing viewpoints. The street, narrow in the west, widens appreciably beyond the junction of the old toll road to Biggar. The street is flanked by long unbroken rows of predominantly one and two storey buildings, mostly houses, some with shops below, built directly on to the edge of the pavement.

Having satisfied ourselves that the council’s consultation and engagement exercises conformed with their participation statement, our examination of the plan commenced on 7 January 2014. We have completed the examination, and now submit our report, enclosing one bound copy. In our examination we considered all 107 issues arising from unresolved representations which were identified by the council. In each case we have taken account of the summaries of the representations and the responses, as prepared by the council, and the original representations, and we have set out our conclusions and recommendations in relation to each issue in our report. The examination process also included a comprehensive series of unaccompanied site inspections and, for some issues we requested additional information from the authority and other parties. We also found it necessary to arrange a hearing session on housing land, which was held at Low Parks Museum, Hamilton on 28 May 2014. On 23 June 2014 Scottish Ministers published National Planning Framework (NPF) 3 and updated Scottish Planning Policy (SPP). Where necessary, we invited parties to comment on the implications, if any, of these publications for the matters under consideration in the examination.

A Conservation Area is defined as “an area of special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance.” Designation introduces a general control over the demolition of any building or structure within the area and to the lopping or felling of trees above a certain size. Designation also imposes on local authorities the requirement to formulate and publish proposals for the preservation and enhancement of conservation areas within the context of a thorough appraisal of their character and appearance. This appraisal also provides a framework for assessing development proposals within the Rutherglen Conservation Area and is therefore supplementary to the Council’s local plan for the area.
