Full2011brochure Single Pages.Indd GEORGE GOLDSMITH EXCLUSIVE Properties & SportiNG ESTATES SCOTLAND’S SPORTING & PROPERTY SPECIALISTS 2011/12 HOUSES | CASTLES | SPORTING ESTATES photo: Glyn Satterley Welcome to the 2011/12 brochure! I am sitting on top of a hill near my home in East Lothian, near Edinburgh, looking out across the Lammermuir Hills and reflecting on what has been a fantastic 2010 sporting season in Scotland. The green shoots of spring are emerging and Scotland is gradually coming alive! It’s a great feeling having a spring, summer and autumn ahead of us and with so much out there to do and see. I’m getting excited about a trip to the Outer Hebrides in June to fish my way through the islands of Barra, South & North Uist, Harris and Lewis. Long evenings, great fishing, breathtaking scenery! Sporting Salmon catches have been at an all-time high on many of our Scottish rivers. The northern rivers including the Thurso, Alness, Helmsdale, Halladale have all experienced remarkable catches and many records broken. One angler had 12 fish to his rod in a day, 80 fish on a beat in a week, over 3000 fish caught on the Thurso in 2010, the best ever for 100 years! The grouse shooting season across northern England and Scotland has also been very positive with some of the best records since 1992. There is real hope and genuine excitement that recent grouse management innovations are paying dividends and the peaks and troughs are a thing of the past. Despite the hard winter many estates are reporting very encouraging spring counts and a low worm burden so let us hope for a good spring. These healthy reports have resulted in a strong demand to head north once again, to enjoy some great sport in 2011. Family holidays Scotland is still a top destination for a family holiday with so much to do and see. Hills, mountains, rivers, lochs and sea. Breathtaking scenery, some of the finest golf courses in the world, deserted sandy beaches and as you know we have the best portfolio of country houses, castles and sporting lodges to offer you. Short breaks Don’t forget we can recommend some fantastic locations for short breaks or long weekends, catering for large or small parties. We look forward to hearing from you and arranging your memorable holiday in 2011! Call us today on 0131 476 6500.

Misunderstanding occurs at many levels. There is often In our superficial era of sound-bite and celebrity it has significant misunderstanding (or perhaps more accurately never been more important to combat misunderstanding – a lack of understanding) amongst the general public and and for landowners to be properly represented. The latest politicians about what Scottish landowners do in terms of Scottish Wildlife Estates Initiative recently launched by supporting employment and local infrastructure, pursuing SRPBA is a prime of example of exactly this in action. conservation and environmental initiatives and working It is a bold move to help demonstrate the role Scottish towards an appropriate balance in wildlife management sporting estates play in delivering a wide range of benefits and biodiversity. to Scotland. I would urge you to support the organisation and this latest initiative www.srpba.com – there can be This in turn has led to considerable legislation and no better prevention than this. numerous initiatives from government and narrowly focused interest groups which are often claimed to be, and in many cases with some justification, misconceived. The problem is compounded by frequent misunderstanding of the regulations themselves fuelled by sensationalist press comment. As lawyers acting for both existing and prospective landowner and managers it is often the case that we find ourselves advising those whose understanding may be either too bleak or too rosy. By keeping up to date with developments we are in a position to help our clients, but our role is necessarily limited.

  • Kintour Landscape Survey Report
    DUN FHINN KILDALTON, ISLAY AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY DATA STRUCTURE REPORT May 2017 Roderick Regan Summary The survey of Dun Fhinn and its associated landscape has revealed a picture of an area extensively settled and utilised in the past dating from at least the Iron Age and very likely before. In the survey area we see settlements developing across the area from at least the 15 th century with a particular concentration of occupation on or near the terraces of the Kintour River. Without excavation or historical documentation dating these settlements is fraught with difficulty but the distinct differences between the structures at Ballore and Creagfinn likely reflect a chronological development between the pre-improvement and post-improvement settlements, the former perhaps a relatively rare well preserved survival.

PREFACE Since ever dwellers on the Continent were first able to navigate the ocean, the isles of Great Britain and Ireland must have been objects which excited their supreme interest. To this we owe in part the com- ing of our own early ancestors to these isles. But while we have histories which inform us of the several historic invasions, they all seem to me to belittle far too much the influence of the Norse Invasions in particular. This error I would fain correct, so far as regards Celtic Scotland.

  • Farquhar Macrae by Shona Mcmillan
    A Highland Gentleman: The Roshven Fiddler Farquhar MacRae By Shona McMillan Google “Farquhar MacRae” and little information will be found pertaining to this fiddle and box player from Rosh- ven. Yet, in 2000, his funeral at Glenfinnan was one of the biggest ever seen as hundreds of people traveled from all over the Scottish Highlands and Islands to pay their re- spects to this most remarkable man. As a musician, he was not recognized as a prolific writer of tunes or as a formal teacher of students. Nevertheless, in Scotland’s traditional music scene, his name is synonymous with Highland mu- sic at its best. So, for this kindly, generous, fondly remem- bered man, it is fitting that his legacy is not to be found in the factual, emotionless listings of the Internet but rather in the living musical legacy which he gave so freely to others. From village hall dances to the largest of traditional music concerts around the world, the love and passion for mu- sic which he knew and instilled in the young is itself now being passed on for the benefit of subsequent generations. Many of today’s internationally acclaimed West Highland musicians recognize his influence in their most formative of musical years. Iain MacDonald of Roshven Records relates, “Growing up in Glenuig, I knew Farquhar since childhood. He had a significant influence on my musical upbringing and was Farquhar with the Glenuig schoolhouse in the background the first person I ever played with professionally… A quiet, gentle, self-effacing man, he would be surprised at the huge influence he has had on so many and the high regard in which he occupied by people working the land.
