  • Introduction the Place-Names in This Book Were Collected As Part of The
    Introduction The place-names in this book were collected as part of the Arts and Humanities Research Board-funded (AHRB) ‘Norse-Gaelic Frontier Project, which ran from autumn 2000 to summer 2001, the full details of which will be published as Crawford and Taylor (forthcoming). Its main aim was to explore the toponymy of the drainage basin of the River Beauly, especially Strathglass,1 with a view to establishing the nature and extent of Norse place-name survival along what had been a Norse-Gaelic frontier in the 11th century. While names of Norse origin formed the ultimate focus of the Project, much wider place-name collection and analysis had to be undertaken, since it is impossible to study one stratum of the toponymy of an area without studying the totality. The following list of approximately 500 names, mostly with full analysis and early forms, many of which were collected from unpublished documents, has been printed out from the Scottish Place-Name Database, for more details of which see Appendix below. It makes no claims to being comprehensive, but it is hoped that it will serve as the basis for a more complete place-name survey of an area which has hitherto received little serious attention from place-name scholars. Parishes The parishes covered are those of Kilmorack KLO, Kiltarlity & Convinth KCV, and Kirkhill KIH (approximately 240, 185 and 80 names respectively), all in the pre-1975 county of Inverness-shire. The boundaries of Kilmorack parish, in the medieval diocese of Ross, first referred to in the medieval record as Altyre, have changed relatively little over the centuries.

It is due to the Public to state that, in order to procure informa- tion for the " City " portion of this Directory, from Five to Six Thousand Schedules were issued, for the purpose of being filled up by the Inhabitants. In transcribing these Schedules, the utmost care was taken to preserve the exact address and orthography of Name which had been given; and, still farther to preserve the accuracy of the Work, the ' whole of the Names, after they had been put into type, were again, at a large sacrifice of time, care- fully compared, one by one, with the original Schedules. The " County " Directory, which forms an important part of the Work, has been made up from returns furnished, in almost every instance, by the Schoolmasters of the respective Parishes. To the Gentlemen who have thus so kindly assisted him, the Publisher gladly embraces the present opportunity of returning his most grateful thanks. The short delay which has occurred in getting the Work issued, has been as much a disappointment to the Publisher as it can have been to his Subscribers. To those of them, however, who may have been incommoded by the delay, he begs to offer a respectful apology, and to assure them that, from the complicated and laborious nature of the Work, (this Directory being an entirely new compilation), the delay was found to be quite un- avoidable.

  • KN001 Land at Burnside Croft, Drumlithie
    ABERDEENSHIRE LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2021 LAND AT BURNSIDE CROFT DRUMLITHIE PROPOSED SMALL SCALE HOUSING SITE Introduction The welcomes the opportunity of early engagement with Aberdeenshire Council regarding the preparation of the next Local Development Plan. In this regard the has been commissioned by to bring to the attention of the Planning Authority the opportunity for a limited extension of the settlement boundary of Drumlithie. A site plan accompanies this ‘bid’. Background The site was considered through the Examination process associated with the current Local Development Plan. In this regard it is useful to consider the comments of the Reporter. He concluded: “4. This modest triangular site falls within the protected land designation P1, which is intended “to conserve the woodland corridor and amenity area for the village”. The site does have a rather unkempt appearance, and given it relates well to the village and site OP1 I consider that a modest development which retained the trees adjacent to the burn, together with the two mature trees on the western boundary of the site, would not compromise the integrity of the P1 designation. 5. Whilst I find the site does have some planning merit, the inclusion of this site is unjustified as a structured environmental assessment process has not been undertaken, nor is there evidence of public engagement, contrary to paragraph 118 of Circular 6/2013 ‘Development Planning’. On this basis no modifications are recommended. There is however scope for a small‐scale proposal on the site to be considered through the development management process, in the context of policy R2.” Clearly, the Reporter had some sympathy for my client.

The hotel was surrounded by a very large garden full of greenery and, as in many other parts of the world, it was used for the wedding photographs. Now, being Ethiopia, we are not talking about (relatively) well behaved groups of relatives being marshalled into formal groups.

  • Railways List
    A guide and list to a collection of Historic Railway Documents www.railarchive.org.uk to e mail click here December 2017 1 Since July 1971, this private collection of printed railway documents from pre grouping and pre nationalisation railway companies based in the UK; has sought to expand it‟s collection with the aim of obtaining a printed sample from each independent railway company which operated (or obtained it‟s act of parliament and started construction). There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

From an early age he received drawing lessons from Robert Greenlees and then attended evening classes at the Glasgow School of Art where Greenless was headmaster. In 1877 he enrolled at the Academie Julian in Paris where he studied under Carolus-Duran and learnt the importance of academic study and drawing from the model. His painting A Bead Stringer, Venice gained a honourable mention at the Salon in 1885 and was then shown in Glasgow. Mann returned to Britain and settled in the Oxfordshire/Berkshire borders in the village of Blewbury and established himself as a landscape and genre painter. Although thereafter living in England, he was consider to be one of the Glasgow Boys. He made many return trips to Scotland but also travelled extensively, visiting America and the Caribbean and making many trips to France, Spain and North Africa.

PREFACE. Of the numerous biographers of the poet Burns, few have dilated on his lineage. Some doubtless felt that his position might not be elevated by any pedigree, however famous. Others may have been content to hold that himself being in lowly circumstances, any inquiry as to his progenitors would be useless and unprofitable. By his biographer Dr Currie he is described as " in reality a peasant." What in respect of descent Burns really was these Memoirs will show. Bemotely sprung from a landed stock, his im- mediate ancestors were yeomen, at first opvdent, latterly the reverse. The family had produced another poet, the author of "Thrummy Cap;" but decided indications of intellectual activity did not appear in the house till subsequent to the marriage of the poet's paternal grandfather. The wife of this person was of the family of Keith of Craig, a branch of the house of Keith-Marischal.
