Cornwall's New Aberdeen Directory

ETC. ETC. ABERDEEN: GEO. CORNWALL, 54, CASTLE STREET. 1853. ft? *•£*.••• > £ NOTE BY THE PUBLISHER. 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. -

Orcadian Basin Devonian Extensional Tectonics Versus Carboniferous

SERANNE Laboratoire de Gdologie des Bassins, CNRS u.a.1371, 34095 Montpellier cedex 05, France Abstract: The Old Red Sandstone (Middle Devonian) Orcadian basin was formed as a consequence of extensional collapse of the Caledonian orogen. Onshore study of these collapse-basins in Orkney and Shetland provides directions of extension during basin development. The origin of folding of Old Red Sandstone sediments, that has generally been related to a Carboniferous inversion phase, is discussed: syndepositional deformation supports a Devonian age and consequently some of the folds are related to basin formation. Large-scale folding of Devonian strata results from extensional and left-lateral transcurrent faulting of the underlying basement. Spatial variation of extension direction and distribution of extensional and transcurrent tectonics fit with a model of regional releasing overstep within a left- lateral megashear in NW Europe during late-Caledonian extensional collapse. -

Shetland Islands Visitor Survey 2019 Shetland Islands Council and Visitscotland April 2020 Contents
Shetland Islands Visitor Survey 2019 Shetland Islands Council and VisitScotland April 2020 Contents Project background Trip profile Objectives Visitor experience Method and analysis Volume and value Visitor profile Summary and conclusions Visitor journey 2 Project background • Tourism is one of the most important economic drivers for the Shetland Islands. The islands receive more than 75,000 visits per year from leisure and business visitors. • Shetland Islands Council has developed a strategy for economic development 2018-2022 to ensure that the islands benefit economically from tourism, but in a way that protects its natural, historical and cultural assets, whilst ensuring environmental sustainability, continuous development of high quality tourism products and extending the season. • Strategies to achieve these objectives must be based on sound intelligence about the volume, value and nature of tourism to the islands, as well as a good understanding of how emerging consumer trends are influencing decisions and behaviours, and impacting on visitors’ expectations, perceptions and experiences. • Shetland Islands Council, in partnership with VisitScotland, commissioned research in 2017 to provide robust estimates of visitor volume and value, as well as detailed insight into the experiences, motivations, behaviours and perceptions of visitors to the islands. This research provided a baseline against which future waves could be compared in order to identify trends and monitor the impact of tourism initiatives on the islands. This report details -
Shetland and Orkney Island-Names – a Dynamic Group Peder Gammeltoft
Shetland and Orkney Island-Names – A Dynamic Group Peder Gammeltoft 1. Introduction Only when living on an island does it become clear how important it is to know one‟s environment in detail. This is no less true for Orkney and Shetland. Being situated in the middle of the North Atlantic, two archipelagos whose land-mass consist solely of islands, holms and skerries, it goes without saying that such features are central, not only to local life and perception, but also to travellers from afar seeking shelter and safe passage. Island, holms and skerries appear to be fixed points in an ever changing watery environment – they appear to be constant and unchanging – also with regard to their names. And indeed, several Scandinavian researchers have claimed that the names of islands constitute a body of names which, by virtue of constant usage and relevance over time, belong among the oldest layers of names (cf. e.g. Hald 1971: 74-75; Hovda 1971: 124-148). Archaeological remains on Shetland and Orkney bear witness to an occupation of these archipelagos spanning thousands of years, so there can be little doubt that these areas have been under continuous utilisation by human beings for a long time, quite a bit longer, in fact, than our linguistic knowledge can take us back into the history of these isles. So, there is nothing which prevents us from assuming that names of islands, holms and skerries may also here carry some of the oldest place-names to be found in the archipelagos. Since island-names are often descriptive in one way or another of the locality bearing the name, island-names should be able to provide an insight into the lives, strategies and needs of the people who eked out an existence in bygone days in Shetland and Orkney. -
