  • Strathyre and Loch Earn
    STRATHYRE AND LOCH EARN SPECIAL QUALITIES OF BREADALBANE STRATHYRE & LOCH EARN Key Features Small flats strips of farmland around watercourses Open upland hills Ben Vorlich and Stuc a’Chroin Loch Lubnaig and Loch Earn Pass of Leny Glen Ogle Landmark historic buildings and heritage sites including Edinample Castle and Dundurn Pictish Hill Fort Summary of Evaluation Sense of Place The visual/sense of place qualities are important. The open upland hills dominate much of this area, with Ben Vorlich and Stuc a’ Chroin the highest peaks, creating an open and vast sense of place with diverse features such as rocky outcrops and scree. Although open uplands are characteristic of much of the highland area of the Park they are distinctive in the Breadalbane area as being generally higher and more unbroken with distinct exposed upper slopes. Loch Earn and Loch Lubnaig are the two main lochs in the area and both have quite distinct characters. Loch Lubnaig is enclosed by heavily planted glen sides and rugged craggy hills such as Ben Ledi and the loch shores are largely undeveloped. Loch Earn in contrast is broad in expanse and flanked by steep hills to the north and south. There are areas of residential, recreational and commercial development along areas of the north and south shore. The flat glen floors are a focus for communication routes and settlement. The flat strips of farmland around the watercourses provide an enclosed landscape which contrasts with the surrounding hills. Cultural Heritage The cultural heritage of the area is of high importance with substantial evidence of continuity of use of the landscape.

  • Mclaren High School Former Pupils' Newsletter
    McLaren High School Dear Friends of McLaren High School Welcome to the 2015 edition of the Former Pupils newsletter. I hope the following articles give you a flavour of what has been going on at McLaren High School during Session 2014/15. As you will see we continue to be a very busy, thriving and productive school community. 50th Anniversary Celebration – McLaren Five 0:50 Years at Mollands Road McLaren High School celebrates 50 years at the Mollands Road campus after the move from the old school building in Bridgend, now Callander Primary. A number of events are taking place on Saturday 5 September to help celebrate this milestone and includes Sports Matches, Tours of the School & Exhibition and also a Ceilidh. It would be great to see many FPs come and join us. More information regarding these events can be found at the back of the newsletter. Orchestra Tour 2014 After over a year of planning and months of rehearsing a party of seventy pupils and nine staff left for Spain in June 2014 to embark on a week-long tour playing four concerts on the Costa Brava. The first concert in Lloret de Mar was going well until a thunder storm approached and the group had to cut short the performance. The theme for Star Wars has never been played so fast, or with lighting (or was it lightning!?) effects. The pupils showed great professionalism in dismantling the orchestra and PA system and loading up all the equipment on the bus in less than ten minutes before the heavy rain came on! The group visited Barcelona, taking in the sights and sounds of La Rambla with street performers, shops and cafes.

  • So I Hear the Rest and Be Thankful Pass Is Closed So It's
    So I hear the Rest and Be Thankful pass is closed so it’s impossible to get to Crinan, right? No, wrong, there’s a diversion. So the diversion adds 60 miles and loads of time on to the journey, right? No, wrong. Depending on where you are coming from, avoiding the closed section or taking the diversion may add between about 10 minutes to just over half an hour and the difference in distance is an extra 5 to 25 miles. Edinburgh Airport to Crinan via Rest and Be Thankful 134 miles approx. 2 hours & 50 minutes via Callander, Crianlarich, Dalmally and Inveraray 139 miles approx. 3 hours Hamilton Services (just south of Glasgow on M74) to Crinan via Rest and Be Thankful 104 miles approx. 2 hours & 20 minutes via Callander, Crianlarich, Dalmally and Inveraray 136 miles approx. 3 hours via Tarbet (Loch Lomond), Crianlarich, Dalmally and Inveraray 130 miles approx. 2 hours & 50 minutes Glasgow Airport (just West of Glasgow) to Crinan via Rest and Be Thankful 86.4 miles approx. 2 hours & 5 minutes via Tarbet (Loch Lomond), Crianlarich, Dalmally and Inveraray 112 miles approx. 2 hours & 30 minutes or from the Glasgow area, it might be worth considering taking a ferry Glasgow Airport (just West of Glasgow) to Crinan via Gourock & Dunoon Ferry 93.2 miles approx. 2 hours & 50 minutes While the main road is closed, a convoy system may be operational on the “Old Military Road” which runs parallel to the stretch of road which is currently closed. As this operates 1 way traffic each direction in turn over quite a long distance, this can be quite a slow option and we have heard of people who just missed the end of traffic running in their direction waiting for over half an hour before it is their turn to move off.
