  • Walking in and Around Dalbeattie and Colvend
    1 WALKING in and around Dalbeattie & Colvend The natural place to walk 3 3 Kippford The Dalbeattie and Colvend area is one of the most beautiful and diverse in Dumfries & Galloway with scenery ranging from forest to woodland and from saltmarsh to rocky coast. The area is also home to the town of Dalbeattie, the picturesque coastal villages of Rockcliffe and Kippford, and the popular Sandyhills beach. The variety of habitats support an abundance of wildlife. Red squirrels are a common sight, colourful dragonflies skim the surface of lochs and birdlife abounds. Look out for sparrowhawks, peregrine falcon perching on rocky outcrops and the many waders such as oystercatcher feeding on the mudflats. The area is particularly renowned for its rich diversity of butterfly species including the small copper, pearl bordered fritillary and purple hairstreak. Plant highlights include the shimmering carpets of bluebells in May and the tapestries of tiny coastal flowers such as English stonecrop and birds foot trefoil during June and July. Those interested in archaeology can visit the Iron Age fort sites of Mote of Mark and Castle Point on the coast near Rockcliffe. The town of Dalbeattie provides a good range of services and Rockcliffe has been a choice holiday village since Victorian times. 4 5 THE WALKS Wick Dumfries A 7 1 A 3 A75 7 1 6 Rounall Wood ...........................................8 2 Inverness 1 1 Aberdeen 7 A 2 Dalbeattie Forest Easy Access Trail A 74 5 Castle (and other waymarked routes).............10 DALBEATTIE 0 1 7 Edinburgh Douglas

  • Development of Estuary Morphological Models
    PB11207-CVR.qxd 1/9/05 11:42 AM Page 1 Joint Defra/EA Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management R&D Programme Development of estuary morphological models Annex A: Guidelines for application of Bottom-Up estuarine models to assess impacts of Global Climate Change and interventions on flood risks and sediment regimes R&D Project Record FD2107/PR Guidelines for application of Bottom-Up estuarine models to assess impacts of Global Climate Change and interventions on flood risks and sediment regimes Executive Summary Climate change and human intervention may have direct impacts in estuaries. They also affect hydrodynamics and hence sediment dynamics, water quality, ecology and human activities. These dynamical consequences are amenable to study by a range of models. This report synthesises experience into guidelines to aid modelling projects. It is intended primarily for specialists or consultants who may assess impacts of climate change and other human interventions on estuaries. We hope that there may also be useful advice for estuary managers specifying such commissioned studies. The emphasis is on so-called “bottom-up” (B-U) models: process-based, mathematical (probably numerical), spatially-resolving, predictive (probably time-stepping). The choice of approaches and methods should take account of previous work and “state- of-the art expertise, practice in analogous problems elsewhere, the issues at stake and necessarily the resources, data and expertise available. We conclude that Bottom-Up models are well-proven for hydrodynamics (including waves) in one or two horizontal dimensions. The vertical dimension is needed to represent many processes: estuarine circulation; bottom stresses, erosion and deposition sensitive thereto; separate paths of near-bed coarse sediment, finer sediments higher up (and dissolved constituents); turbidity maxima associated with river flow; sediment supply in bottom marine inflow.

  • A Gazetteer to the Metal Mines of Scotland INTRODUCTION This Is
    A Gazetteer to the Metal Mines of Scotland INTRODUCTION This is the fourth edition of this work. I have checked most of my original references and located further mines and trials using the internet. I hope that I have been able to provide more accurate map references. However, most of the entries have only a six figure map references and so may be a little way off. I have given some of the Loch Fyne mines names of my own choosing as the original references used only letters and numbers on a map which I have not reproduced, I have enclosed the name in quotes (‘ ‘) where this has been done. As I have not visited all of the sites there may well be inaccuracies. Please feel free to use the ‘Aditnow’ web site to make any corrections. For the purpose of this Gazetteer, the definition of a mine or trial is an underground working. Where, during my search of the literature I have come across ore bodies worked by opencast or quarrying, I have included them and mentioned this in the NOTES. I have not included gold unless it appears in my original reference, but have included other minerals as I have come across them. Also I have not included all the individual mines for Leadhills and Wanlochhead. Spellings of place names etc may have changed through time, where this occurs I have used the spelling in the REFERENCE. Please note: Many of the mine sites listed are well over 100 years old and the evidence still visible on the ground may be inconclusive especially in the case of the small mines and trials, others, however, are very obvious.

  • East Stewartry Coast National Scenic Area Management Strategy
    Dumfries and Galloway Council LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2 East Stewartry Coast National Scenic Area Management Strategy Planning Guidance - November 2019 www.dumgal.gov.uk This management strategy was first adopted as supplementary planning guidance to the Stewartry Local Plan. That plan was replaced by the Councils first Local Development Plan (LDP) in 2014. The LDP has been reviewed and has been replaced by LDP2 in 2019. As the strategy is considered, by the Council, to remain relevant to the implementation of LDP2 it has been readopted as planning guidance to LDP2. Policy NE1: National Scenic Areas ties the management strategy to LDP2. The management strategy has been produced to ensure the area continues to justify its designation as a nationally important landscape. It provides an agreed approach to the future of the area, offering better guidance and advice on how to invest resources in a more focused way. The Council will work with Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) to review and update the content of the strategy during the lifetime of LDP2.

This is what this national pilot best of Scotland’s landscapes, deserving of the project set out to do – and we believe this special effort and resources that are required Management Strategy is an important step to ensure that their fine qualities endure, towards achieving it.
