  • 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following list of approximately 500 names, mostly with full analysis and early forms, many of which were collected from unpublished documents, has been printed out from the Scottish Place-Name Database, for more details of which see Appendix below.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.

  • (Moine) Calc-Silicate Rocks Represent Metamorphosed Tuffs? a Geochemical Re-Appraisal Richard A
    Do Neoproterozoic (Moine) calc-silicate rocks represent metamorphosed tuffs? A geochemical re-appraisal Richard A. Batchelor School of Earth & Environmental Sciences, University of St. Andrews, St. Andrews, Fife, Scotland KY16 9AL Running heads: LH: RICHARD A. BATCHELOR RH: DO NEOPROTEROZOIC (MOINE) CALC-SILICATE ROCKS REPRESENT METAMORPHOSED TUFFS? Suggest: CALC-SILICATE ROCKS 1 ABSTRACT: Following the identification of grey quartz–albite–chlorite–calcite–muscovite rocks in Meso- to Neo-proterozoic sequences in Scotland as metamorphosed tuffs of intermediate composition, it has been shown that this lithology will generate calc-silicate rocks at higher metamorphic grades. Both rock types occur as thin beds with sharp contacts with their host, occur as multiple beds in isolated suites, and share chemical compositions suggestive of volcanic sources with tholeiitic andesite affinities. The failure to recognise calc- silicate rocks as tuffs might explain the apparent scarcity of volcanogenic material through c. 220 million years of early Earth history in Scotland. KEYWORDS: Calc-silicates, tuffs, intermediate magmatism, Moine 2 1 Calc-silicate rocks, which are metamorphic rocks composed mostly of plagioclase feldspar, amphibole, 2 garnet, quartz and occasionally epidote, are sporadically distributed throughout the Neoproterozoic 3 Moine Supergroup of Scotland. The Moine Supergroup comprises a thick sequence of sedimentary 4 rocks, deposited in fluviatile (Bonsor & Prave 2008) and shallow marine environments between c. 950 5 Ma and 870 Ma (Mendum et al. 2009), intruded by some minor igneous intrusions, all of which were 6 subjected to regional metamorphism and deformation events (Strachan et al. 2010). The sediments 7 were derived from the denudation of the c.1000 Ma Grenville Orogen and deposited off the eastern 8 margin of Laurentia into a foreland basin.

  • THE PINNING STONES Culture and Community in Aberdeenshire
    THE PINNING STONES Culture and community in Aberdeenshire When traditional rubble stone masonry walls were originally constructed it was common practice to use a variety of small stones, called pinnings, to make the larger stones secure in the wall. This gave rubble walls distinctively varied appearances across the country depend- ing upon what local practices and materials were used.

  • Brightwater Lodge – Dark Skies
    Our Dark Skies Come and See Over A Thousand Stars Being on the edge of Europe means that the UK has some of the largest areas of dark sky in the continent and being the edge of the UK means that we have one of the best areas of dark sky in the country and certainly one of the darkest in Europe. In fact, our night sky can get so inky dark that over 7,000 stars and planets can be visible with the naked eye. All you have to do is go outside on a clear night, give your eyes time to adjust to the dark and then look up. You can even see our own galaxy, The Milky Way, stretching across the sky. This is a privilege that so few people in our county have, so why not come here and let us share it with you. How Dark is Dark? So how dark is a dark sky? Well, we have measured the darkness of the sky at various locations here using a device called a Sky Quality Meter (SQM) and have got readings of between 21 and 22.5. To give you an idea of what this means, you would get a reading of around 8 in the middle of a major city such as Glasgow or Edinburgh and a reading of 24 would be measured in a photographer's dark room. So, on some nights, we are very near to total darkness, meaning that this is a great place to enjoy a spot of stargazing. Where to Go to Enjoy the Night Sky While you are here you can simply walk out to the front of the lodge or across the road to the Loch shore to find a spot to view the night sky as it is dark enough here to see the Milky Way and there are good sightlines to the sky in all directions.

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.
