  • A Message from Our Interim Moderator
    www.kiltarlityandkirkhill.org.uk Kiltarlity and Wardlaw Churches A MESSAGE FROM OUR INTERIM MODERATOR Dear Friends, There is a moving story about a man called Charnet who was a political prisoner in France in the days of Napoleon. He was thrown into prison simply because he had accidentally, by a remark, offended the emperor Napoleon. Cast into a dungeon cell, presumably left to die, as the days and weeks and months passed by, Charnet became embittered at his fate. Slowly but surely he began to lose his faith in God. And one day, in a moment of rebellious anger, he scratched on the wall of his cell, "All things come by chance," which reflected the injustice that had come his way by chance. He sat in the darkness of that cell growing more bitter by the day. There was one spot in the cell where a single ray of sunlight came every day and remained for a little while. And one morning, to his absolute amazement, he noticed that in the hard, earthen floor of that cell a tiny, green blade was breaking through. It was something living, struggling up toward that shaft of sunlight. It was his only living companion, and his heart went out in joy toward it. He nurtured it with his tiny ration of water, cultivated it, and encouraged its growth. That green blade became his friend. It became his teacher in a sense, and finally it burst through until one day there bloomed from the little plant a beautiful, purple and white flower. Once again Charnet found himself thinking thoughts about God.

  • The Medieval Parish in Scotland
    The Medieval Parish in Scotland Simon Taylor University of Glasgow This article is based on a paper I gave to the conference ‘Scottish Society and the Parish’, held in Stirling Tolbooth, Stirling, on 24 November 2010, organised by the Scottish Records Association and the Economic & Social History Society of Scotland to mark the 450th anniversary of the Reformation in Scotland. It explores the emergence of the parish in our earliest records, as well as its ‘territoriality’, looking at how it took on the spatial extent that it did, how that area evolved over the centuries, and how far earlier parochial footprints can still be traced in the modern landscape and place-names. This very much reflects my own interests, as well as the work of the ‘Mapping of the Historical Parishes of Scotland Group’,1 a small group which consists of representatives of NRS, RCAHMS and the Universities of the Highlands and Islands, Glasgow and Stirling. I will start by looking briefly at what we know of the early evolution of the Scottish parish as a legal and ecclesiastical entity, which will inevitably also be a historiographical survey of the subject. The real start of the serious study of the Scottish parish as a historical entity has to be the Origines Parochiales Scotiae, a splendid production overseen and edited by Cosmo Innes and James Brichan.2 Published by the Bannatyne Club between 1851 and 1855, it has the grand subtitle ‘The Antiquities Ecclesiastical and Territorial of the Parishes of Scotland’. I choose this as my starting point rather than the Statistical Accounts of Scotland, the first of which appeared in the 1790s, now known as the Old Statistical Account.

  • Boblainy Forest Community Archaeology Project Local Knowledge and Local Questions
    Boblainy Forest Community Archaeology Project Local Knowledge and Local Questions In 2011 people gathered at Kiltarlity Village Hall to share memories or learn about people and places as part of the Boblainy Forest Community Archaeology project, organised by Kiltarlity Community Council. The sessions were led by Susan Kruse of Archaeology for Communities in the Highlands (ARCH). Since few people have lived or worked in the forest, the scope of the evenings was expanded, and included Kiltarlity and beyond. The sessions were lively and well-attended, resulting in a great deal of material summarised below. The project was funded by the European Community Highland LEADER 2007-2013 Programme, the Highland Council, Kiltarlity Community Council, Forestry Commission Scotland, Hugh Fraser Foundation, Lord Lovat and Joe Gibbs of Belladrum Estate. Further information can also be found in a book produced by the project: Boblainy Forest Through the Ages, available from Kiltarlity Community Council. Binders with further information and a display produced by the project are also held by the Community Council. These notes are from sessions held 17 & 24 Jan, 1 & 8 Feb 2011, with some additional material added later.

When a proper explanation of the proposal for 28 terraced houses (now 27) was eventually provided by the developer to the Community Council at its October meeting, members agreed that the housing and layout proposed was in fact more attractive and appropriate to the Village than the original proposal. But they have made very clear to developers Wil- liam Gray/Ark Estates and to Highland Council planners that further anticipated changes in the plans which have already been given permission, must be fully explained and ample opportunity provided to Community Council and local resi- dents to comment and, if necessary, object.

  • The View from God's Little Ac
    The Parishioner Newsletter – Issue 13 March 2009 Kiltarlity and Kirkhill Churches THE VIEW FROM GOD’S LITTLE ACACRERERERE Dear Lenten Pilgrims, As we begin the Christian season of Lent together, I rereadad this interesting piece which I would like to share with you. A DIFFERENT KIND OF FASTING During Lent, some people abstain from chocolate, desserts, sweets, meat or alcohol. Look at fasting from another angle - fasting from negative attitudes and feasting on positive emotions and perspectives. Fast from judging others; feast on Christ dwelling in each person you meet. Fast from apparent darkness; feast on the reality of light in your life. Fast from seeing differences; feast in the Holy Spirit in all of life. Fast from thoughts of illness; feast in the healing power of God. Fast from the words that pollute; feast on phrases that support or affirm. Fast from discontent; feast on gratitude. Fast from anger; feast on patience. Fast from worry; feast on trust in God's promises. Fast from complaining; feast on appreciation. Fast from hostility; feast on non-violence. Fast from self-concern; feast on compassion for others. Fast from discouragement; feast on hope. Fast from lethargy; feast on enthusiasm. Fast from idle gossip; feast on prayerful silence. Fast from suspicion; feast on truthful relationships. Fast from the shadow of injustice; feast on the Son of Justice. As we read from Isaiah 58 on Sunday, 22nd February: This is the kind of fast I am after: to break the chains of injustice, get rid of exploitation in the workplace free the oppressed cancel debts.
