  • Argyll and Bute Landscape Wind Energy Capacity Study FINAL
    Argyll and Bute Landscape Wind Energy Capacity Study FINAL APPENDIX REPORT March 2012 ArgyllandButeLandscapeWindEnergyCapacityStudy AppendixReport–DetailedSensitivityAssessments March2012 Carol Anderson and Alison Grant, Landscape Architects Contents 1. Introduction to the sensitivity assessments 2. Detailed sensitivity assessment for landscape character types 3. Detailed sensitivity assessment for National Scenic Areas 2 1 Introduction to the sensitivity assessment 1.1 Sensitivity assessments have been undertaken for each character type and any sub-types defined and for the National Scenic Areas (NSA) as explained in Section 4 of the Main Study Report. 1.2 The sensitivity assessment considers sensitivity of each character type or NSA to four different wind farm/turbine typologies. An introduction to each character type is set out in the sensitivity assessments that follow. This clarifies the approach to assessment in terms of whether the whole landscape character type or sub-divisions of that type have been assessed. It also describes where any changes have been made to the boundaries or classification of character types set out in the Argyll and Firth of Clyde Landscape Assessment. Operational and consented wind farm developments, whether located within the landscape type/unit or in the surrounding area (and clearly visible from the character type being assessed), are described. A similar approach is taken for the NSA assessments although the introduction principally focuses on the description of the designated landscape and its special qualities. 1.3 This Appendix Report contains the detailed sensitivity assessment tables for landscape character types and NSAs (a summary of these only being included in the Main Study Report). The sensitivity scores outlined in the summary of sensitivity are made on the basis of a five point scale; High, High-medium, Medium, Medium-low and Low.

  • A Walk on the Beach at the Southern Tip of Rosneath Peninsula, Argyll & Bute
    A walk on the beach at the southern tip of Rosneath Peninsula, Argyll & Bute. The air, the water and the land, and sadly, the litter. Tam Ward. 2019. A tiny part of Scotland – with so much to offer. Rosneath Peninsula and Upper Clyde Estuary, The southern tip of Rosneath Peninsula Argyll & Bute 1 The sky was a bland but beautiful shade of pale blue interrupted only by occasional and ever changing clumps of fluffy topped white and grey clouds, constantly modifying themselves into slowly moving and ever changing shapes, of curly topped travellers heading to some unknown destination across the horizons. The airborne islands of pearly white seemed endless in their seemingly mysterious source as the continued their journey – appearing from somewhere – and disappearing to – another place. Gareloch Gareloch and Helensburgh The skyward scene is only occasionally interrupted by the apparently motiveless flight of a bird or flock of them, sometimes alone but on other occasions as a flight of well-meaning direction, especially at some specific spot on the beach where they will swoop down as if with a single mind, perhaps sensing a good spot for lunch, or just taking a chance on one. Further out, especially if the sea is flat, the expert divers of gannet, tern or cormorant will streak down and disappear in a little flash of sparkling water, to erupt again some distance away, and If they were lucky, as they usually are – with their beak held quarry. Now and then a frenzy of such activity by a gang of birds would indicate a hapless shoal of fish had been detected near the surface.

It complements the Landscape Character Type descriptions of the 2019 dataset. The original character assessment reports, part of a series of 30, mostly for a local authority area, included a “Background Chapter” on the formation of the landscape. These documents have been revised because feedback said they are useful, despite the fact that other sources of information are now readily available on the internet, unlike in the 1990’s when the first versions were produced. The content of the chapters varied considerably between the reports, and it has been restructured into a more standard format: Introduction, Physical Influences and Human Influences for all areas; and Cultural Influences sections for the majority. Some content variation still remains as the documents have been revised rather than rewritten, The information has been updated with input from the relevant Local Authorities. The historic and cultural aspects have been reviewed and updated by Historic Environment Scotland. Gaps in information have been filled where possible.

  • Distance Markers on the B833 Rosneath Peninsula Road and on the A814 Helensburgh Road to Milton
    Distance markers on the B833 Rosneath Peninsula road and on the A814 Helensburgh road to Milton. Tam Ward 2020 Introduction Distinctive mileage posts survive on the B833 and the A814 roads along the north Clyde coast. Normally described as ‘milestones’, these examples are all cast iron panels with place names, finger pointing hands, distances, and destinations in raised letters, numbers and motifs. They are given on various issues of OS maps as ‘MP’ (Mile Posts) but are not given on the 1st Ed OS maps indicating that they were installed later than circa 1860. The examples on Rosneath Peninsula are of the same style while the five others recorded on the A814 are different castings, the hand indicators being especially different in style. It is likely that the mileage panels were originally installed as a complete sequence, as a near complete run around the southern tip of the Peninsula between Coulport and Kilcreggan shows, where distances are given as 29, 28, 26, 25 and 24 miles to ‘Dunbarton’, it would appear than one panel (27 miles) is missing. If that is correct, then a considerable number are now missing, especially along the Gareloch where only three are still to be seen; one at Rosneath (No 7), one near Rahane (No 8) and the other at Garelochhead (No 9). The early editions of OS maps do show ‘MP’ and some of the distances from those positions indicating that panels were installed every mile between Coulport and Dunbarton. Interestingly, the early OS maps give the spelling Dumbarton for the town showing that in the mid-19th century there was no hard and fast rule regarding the naming of the County and town.

  • A WWII Mine Watching Station on the Southern Tip of Rosneath Peninsula, Argyll and Bute
    A WWII Mine Watching Station on the southern tip of Rosneath Peninsula, Argyll and Bute. Tam Ward 2020 Introduction A small brick and concrete ‘pillbox’ has long been known on the beach edge at NS 27366 80639, at Rosneath Point on the southern tip of Rosneath Peninsula in Argyll and Bute. The reason being, it has survived as an almost complete building and is visually apparent at the beach edge where walkers frequent. As part of the North Clyde Archaeology Society [NCAS] activities of surveying and investigating military remains along the northern shores of the Clyde Estuary, the building was incorporated into that study. It was known that a near identical building exists in equally good condition at Bowling to the east (NS 45219 73366). But it was information supplied by Historic Environment Scotland [HES] that they were mine watching stations, that gave them more prominence to NCAS. However, it was during a beach rubbish clearance exercise by the writer that further associated features to the Rosneath site were discovered and which were previously unseen. This report covers the entire site of which there remains much research to be done on the subject. 1 Survey The building The building was built on a concrete plinth of c 100mm thick and only slightly larger than the area of the structure itself. The brick building measures overall 2.4m at the front and 2.8m at the side, it is 1.9m high to the flat concrete slab roof which is also c100mm thick and slightly overhangs the brickwork. The walls are made with CADDER bricks and are all 0.45m thick (brick and half).
