The area crosses three local authority areas, two Scottish Enterprise regions, two Forestry Commission areas, two Rural Payments and Inspections Divisions, one National Park and one VisitScotland Region. An area criss-crossed with administrative boundaries, the geography crosses these boundaries, with the area stretching from the spectacular Highland mountain scenery around Crianlarich and Tyndrum, across the Highland boundary fault line, with its forests and lochs, down to the more rolling hills of the Ochils, Campsies and the Kilpatrick Hills until it meets the fringes of the urbanised central belt of Clydebank, Stirling and Alloa.

Asva Visitor Trend Report - September 2009/2010
ASVA VISITOR TREND REPORT - SEPTEMBER 2009/2010 OVERVIEW Visitor numbers for September 2009/2010 were received from 218 sites. 9 sites requested confidentiality, and although their numbers have been included in the calculations, they do not appear in the tables below. There are 14 sites for which there is no directly comparable data for 2009. The 2010 figures do appear in the table below for information but were not included in the calculations. Thus, directly comparable data has been used from 204 sites. From the usable data from 204 sites, the total number of visits recorded in September 2010 was 1,551,800 this compares with 1,513,324 in 2009 and indicates an increase of 2.5% for the month. Weatherwise, September was a changeable month with rain and strong winds, with average rainfall up to 150% higher than average Some areas experienced localised flooding and there was some disruption to ferry and rail services. The last weekend of the month saw clear skies in a northerly wind which brought local air frosts to some areas and a few places saw their lowest temperatures in September in 20 to30 years. http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/hi/uk_reviews/default.stm September 2009 September 2010 % change SE AREA (156) 1,319,250 1,356,219 2.8% HIE AREA (48) 194,074 195,581 0.8% SCOTLAND TOTAL (204) 1,513,324 1,551,800 2.5% Table 1 – Scotland September 2009/2010 SE AREA In September 2010 there were 1,356,219 visits recorded, compared to 1,319,250 during the same period in 2009, an increase of 2.8%.

Asva Visitor Trend Report - January 2011/2012
ASVA VISITOR TREND REPORT - JANUARY 2011/2012 OVERVIEW Visitor figures for January 2011/2012 were received from 215 sites. 10 sites requested confidentiality, and although their numbers have been included in the calculations, they do not appear in the tables below. 75 sites noted that they were closed for the season. The Riverside Museum in Glasgow was not open in 2010 so their figures for 2011 are shown in the table below for reference but have not been included in the calculation. And following discussion with colleagues, we have published the 2010 and 2011 figures for the National Museum of Scotland but these have not been included in the calculations. The reason for this decision is that the site was only partially open in 2010 whilst it was undergoing major refurbishment and upgrade, prior to the re-opening of the whole site in the summer of 2011. As can be seen, the total increase in visitor numbers is just under 300%, and to include these considerable numbers in the calculations would skew the national figure (see below). In addition, there are 6 sites for which there was no comparable data Comparable data was therefore received from 134 sites. The total number of visits recorded in January 2011 was 788,707 this compares with 733,699 in 2010 and indicates an increase of 7.5%. January 2012 had much better overall weather conditions than 2011 which saw widespread disruption because of low temperatures, sleet and snow. It was a relatively mild month, although the start of the month carried over some stormy conditions from December.

Castle Campbell
Property in Care (PIC) ID: PIC016 Designations: Scheduled Monument (SM13611) GDL Inventory Landscape (00089); Taken into State care: 1950 (Guardianship) Last reviewed: 2013 HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT SCOTLAND STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE CASTLE CAMPBELL We continually revise our Statements of Significance, so they may vary in length, format and level of detail. While every effort is made to keep them up to date, they should not be considered a definitive or final assessment of our properties. Historic Environment Scotland – Scottish Charity No. SC045925 Principal Office: Longmore House, Salisbury Place, Edinburgh EH9 1SH Historic Environment Scotland – Scottish Charity No. SC045925 Principal Office: Longmore House, Salisbury Place, Edinburgh EH9 1SH CASTLE CAMPBELL SYNOPSIS Castle Campbell stands in lofty isolation on a narrow rocky spur at the head of Dollar Glen, 1 mile north of Dollar. The spur is cut off from the east, west and south by the ravines of the Burns of Care and Sorrow, whilst the Ochil Hills overlook it from the north. The castle has splendid views southward over the Forth valley. The site may be of some antiquity but the present castle complex most probably dates from the early 15th century. Initially called Castle Gloom, it became the Lowland residence of the Campbell earls of Argyll around 1465 – whence the name Castle Campbell. It remained with that powerful noble family until the 9th earl relocated to Argyll’s Lodging, Stirling, in the mid-17th century. Thereafter, the castle fell into ruin. The Campbell earls substantially rebuilt the lofty tower house that dominates the complex, then added a once-splendid but now substantially ruined hall range across the courtyard c.

Press view: Thursday 12 November 2015, 11:30-13:00h RISE AND FALL: THE EARL OF MAR AND THE 1715 JACOBITE RISING Pictured: LEFT John Erskine, 6th Earl of CALUM COLVIN: JACOBITES BY NAME Mar (1672–1732), with His Son Thomas, Lord Erskine (1705– 14 November 2015 – 27 March 2016 1766) by Sir Godfrey Kneller. SCOTTISH NATIONAL PORTRAIT GALLERY RIGHT Lochaber no More by Calum Colvin 1 Queen Street, Edinburgh EH2 1JD Admission Free | 0131 624 6200 #ScotPortrait The 300th anniversary of the 1715 Jacobite Rising will be marked by two fascinating new displays at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery this winter. A key player in the rising, John Erskine, 6th Earl of Mar, will be the focus of Rise and Fall, while Calum Colvin, one of Scotland’s leading contemporary artists, will explore the visual imagery and legacy of the Jacobite Risings of 1715 and 1745 in Jacobites by Name. Responsible for initiating and subsequently ending the Rising, the Earl of Mar (1675–1732) was an extraordinary individual, passionate about both politics and the arts. Born in Alloa, Clackmannanshire, he was a Member of Parliament and later Secretary of State for Scotland, before being deprived of office by the new Hanoverian king, George I, in 1714. Mar raised the standard of rebellion against the Hanoverians, and from September to December 1715 he was effectively ruling Scotland.
