  • Braehead Iron Age Settlement
    RLHF Journal Vol.11 (2001/2) 3. Braehead Ironage Settlement — A Volunteer’s Tale Bruce Henry [First published in A Touch of GAS Autumn 2001] 1939 - the Luftwaffe take some aerial photos of Barclay Curle, Scotstoun, the docks and Renfrew - Braehead stands out clearly. 1950s - Dr. J. K. S. St Joseph takes further photos of the farmland to the west of King George V Dock. 1968 - the RAF take even more photos of the area. With all this photography going on something had to be found to justify it so in March 1973 the late Jack G. Scott started excavating a ditched enclosure identified from the air at Shiels Farm, soon to be developed as a whisky blending and bottling plant (a waste of good malt). He had a grand total of under 10 excavators, but he called in the first volunteers – always assuming the Luftwaffe and RAF used conscripts. By August 1974, the familiar team of students and volunteers had established sites of at least three round houses within the 45m (max) diameter oval ditch dating from the late Bronze/early Iron Age. Over a quarter of a century later, word got out that Ikea were planning to open a store at the Braehead shopping development. As the only substantial piece of land lay between the whisky bottling plant and the KGV Dock, close to Jack Scott’s enclosure, the aerial photographs were revisited. A vague outline of a possibly similar site was identified as worthy of further investigation. Then one evening in late 1999, when heading to a meeting of the Renfrewshire Local History Forum, Derek Alexander noticed that heaps of spoil had been dumped on the site.

The Assembly Members are tasked with learning about, discussing, and making recommendations on how we can best tackle climate change. Specifically, the Assembly is considering ‘how should Scotland change to tackle the climate emergency in an effective and fair way?’. In 2021, the Assembly will report to the Scottish Parliament on the outcomes of their deliberations. While participation in the Assembly as a member, expert lead, or speaker is by invitation only, a public engagement exercise was run in October 2020 in order to include the views of wider society. The general population has a genuine stake in the outcomes of the Assembly and therefore it is important they have the opportunity to have an input into its proceedings.

    Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part One ISBN 0 902 198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART I A-J C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.
