E-mail: [email protected] The great majority of Scottish parish churches owe their present appearance to reconstructions carried out from the later eighteenth or nineteenth centuries. It was the view of the authors of this paper, however, that in many cases those reconstructions had been relatively superficial, and that medieval work might have survived under what could, in some cases, be little more than a modern veneer. To test this view, a survey was carried out of all medieval parish sites within the dioceses of Dunblane and Dunkeld. The findings from that survey are summarized in this paper. The loss of medieval parish churches in Scotland has been so great that there is a widely held view that too few survive for a detailed understanding of pre-Reformation parochial architecture to be reached. In a paper published in 1939, for example, it could be

  • Perth & Kinross Council Archive
    Perth & Kinross Council Archive Collections District council records Perthshire District Councils were formed under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1929 (19 & 20 Geo. V, c.25) which abolished district committees, standing joint committees, commissioners of supply, parish councils, education authorities and other bodies, and transferred all or most of their functions to county councils. The Act required county councils to draw up a scheme of district councils, to be composed partly of directly elected district councillors and partly of the county councillors from electoral divisions within the district. District councils had various responsibilities delegated to them by the county council under a scheme of delegation. These might include the letting of houses, the upkeep of cemeteries and, until 1948, the poor law. District councils also administered special districts or committees responsible for certain functions such as scavenging or water supply, financed by additional rates. District councils were abolished in 1975 by the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973 (c. 65) and replaced in Perthshire by Tayside Regional Council and Perth and Kinross District Council. CDC Central District Council, 1928-1975 Central District Council covered the Perthshire parishes of Auchterarder, Blackford, Crieff, Comrie, Dunning, Fowlis Wester, Glendevon, Logiealmond, Madderty, Monzievaird and Strowan, Muckhart, Muthill and Trinity Gask. Minutes and abstracts of accounts, 1930-1975; Other administrative and financial records, 1928-1975; Muthill Special District Committee minutes, 1929-1951; Comrie Special District Committee minutes, 1928-1975; St Fillans Special District Committee minutes, 1929-1971; Blackford Special District Committee minutes, 1931-1950.

  • The Polish Community in Scotland Thomas Kernberg
    THE POLISH COMMUNITY IN SCOTLAND THOMAS KERNBERG PH.D. INSTITUTE OF SOVIET AND EAST EUROPEAN STUDIES, UNIVERSITY OF GLASGOW OCTOBER, 1990 (c) THOMAS KERNBERG, 1990 PREFACE. My reason for undertaking the research for this thesis was a very personal one: my father, the late Tadeusz Ziarski-Kernberg, was one of the Polish servicemen who settled in Scotland as a result of the Second World War. Since my childhood I have been closely associated with the Polish community in Edinburgh. When I decided to study an aspect of Polish history it was only natural that I should turn to 'my own people' for subject material. As soon as I expressed an interest in this subject for a Ph.D. thesis, I received the support of my supervisor, Professor W.V. Wallace, the Director of the Institute of Soviet and East European Studies at the University of Glasgow. In addition to the unfailing encouragement and patient supervision of Professor Wallace, this thesis would not have been possible without the support of the Polish community and the access I received to Polish archive materials. In particular I would like to thank Mr. W.kadys4-aw Bednarek, Mr. Jan Stepek and the Committee of the Polish Social and Educational Association (Glasgow), Mr. JOzef Be+towski, the late Mr. Zygmunt TchOrzewski and the Second Army Corps Association (Edinburgh), the late Mrs. Margaret Maurer, the late Mrs. Maria Rej and the late Mr. JOzef Rej. Special thanks are owed to Mrs. Maria Koczy, the former Librarian at the Polish Institute and General Sikorski Museum (Glasgow) for her advice regarding choice of and access to source materials.
