The Misty Isle of Skye : Its Scenery, Its People, Its Story
THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES c.'^.cjy- U^';' D Cfi < 2 H O THE MISTY ISLE OF SKYE ITS SCENERY, ITS PEOPLE, ITS STORY BY J. A. MACCULLOCH EDINBURGH AND LONDON OLIPHANT ANDERSON & FERRIER 1905 Jerusalem, Athens, and Rome, I would see them before I die ! But I'd rather not see any one of the three, 'Plan be exiled for ever from Skye ! " Lovest thou mountains great, Peaks to the clouds that soar, Corrie and fell where eagles dwell, And cataracts dash evermore? Lovest thou green grassy glades. By the sunshine sweetly kist, Murmuring waves, and echoing caves? Then go to the Isle of Mist." Sheriff Nicolson. DA 15 To MACLEOD OF MACLEOD, C.M.G. Dear MacLeod, It is fitting that I should dedicate this book to you. You have been interested in its making and in its publica- tion, and how fiattering that is to an author s vanity / And what chief is there who is so beloved of his clansmen all over the world as you, or whose fiame is such a household word in dear old Skye as is yours ? A book about Skye should recognise these things, and so I inscribe your name on this page. Your Sincere Friend, THE A UTHOR. 8G54S7 EXILED FROM SKYE. The sun shines on the ocean, And the heavens are bhie and high, But the clouds hang- grey and lowering O'er the misty Isle of Skye. I hear the blue-bird singing, And the starling's mellow cry, But t4eve the peewit's screaming In the distant Isle of Skye. -
Appropriate Assessment of the Policies and Proposals Has Been Undertaken, Under the Provisions of Article 6(3) and (4) of the Habitats Directive 1992**
West Highland & Islands Local Plan: Habitats Regulations Appraisal Finalised Version Habitats Regulations Appraisal (including Appropriate Assessment) of the West Highland & Islands Local Plan Finalised Version (September 2010) 1 West Highland & Islands Local Plan: Habitats Regulations Appraisal Finalised Version Foreword This document has been prepared under the requirements of the EU Habitats Directive and has applied the requirements set out by Scottish Government Policy. It is the Highland Council’s responsibility to consider whether the policies and proposals within the West Highland & Islands Local Plan are likely to have any significant effect on Special Protection Areas (including proposed SPAs), Special Areas of Conservation (including proposed SACs) and Ramsar sites, having regard to the qualifying interests and conservation objectives of those sites. Where a likely significant effect has been identified, appropriate assessment has been undertaken in order to try to ascertain whether the policies and proposals will adversely affect the integrity of the sites protected by the EU Directive and Scottish Government Policy (“the sites”). Mitigation measures have been provided where necessary in order to avoid adversely affecting the integrity of the sites. This has involved making changes to the Plan where necessary. The Council now believes that the Plan’s policies and proposals will not adversely affect the integrity of the sites. We have successfully concluded with certainty that that is the case. During the preparation of this document and the consideration of relevant representations on the Local Plan the Highland Council had discussions with and input from Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) in particular which helped identify and address any potential shortcomings. -

No. 9 Pilgrims on the E1arth. A PlLGRIM, according to the dictionary, is one who travels a distance to some supposedly sacred place; and there are still times and seasons wherein devotees of non-Christian religions go on pilgrimage to some place or temple, such as Mecca, the birthplace of Mohammed. But the Biblical and Christian pilgrim on the earth is a sinner saved by the grace of God through faith in the Lord Jesus ChTist and His precious blood, and who is now travelling on the earth to a better country, e'ven an heavenly. And so all such pilgrims after a godly sort are a distinc tive people to whom the beginning of another year brings matter for serious thought and prayerful consideration. They know what is past of their journey toward Eternity, but how long their journey still shall be, and what may befall them during it, they know not. -

Consultative Report
The Highland Council West Highlands & Islands Core Path Plan Review 2015/16– Skye and Lochalsh Consultative Report Introduction The development of the existing core path plan was part of The Highland Councils duties given in the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003 (LR(S)A 2003). The existing plan was adopted by the full council in September 2011 after the plan had been through the statutory consultation process and also a Public Local Inquiry (PLI). This core path review is for the areas of Skye and Lochalsh in the Highland Council Core Paths Plan. The review will take place alongside the consultation process for the new West Highland and Island Development Plan. A single plan, West Highlands and Islands Core Paths Plan will be produced by combining with Wester Ross and Lochaber, then, where appropriate the Core Paths will be shown on the Local Development Plan. This Consultative Report has been produced as part of a review process, it is not a DRAFT Core Paths Plan as set out in Section 17 of the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003. Correspondingly the promotion of this Consultative Report is not the public notice of a Core Paths Plan as set out in Section 18 of the same act. Public comments are welcome but the council is not seeking formal objections to the proposals at this stage. Any objections will be treated the same as other comments and should any proposal be put forward in a Draft Core Paths Plans the council will give notice, as set out in section 18, at a future date. -
Isle of Skye ~
Page 1 of 8 21.10.20 Photography Masterclass ~ Isle of Skye ~ Sunday the 14th to Sunday the 21st of November 2021 We invite you to join us on this one week long landscape photography masterclass where we will immerse you in some of the most iconic sights on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. Two experienced guides will lead you to these wonderful sights but also to lesser known but spectacular locations and provide expert instruction for a small group of clients. We will also enjoy wonderful Scottish hospitality during our stay on the island. The photography masterclass is placed in November, well outside of the main travel season in order to avoid the crowds. It is early winter and temperatures will lie around 6 degrees Celsius. We may experience frost and there could be snow cover on the famous Cuillin Munros and Trotternish hills. The length of the day is less than 8 hours, with sunrise and sunset being around 9.20 am and 5 pm respectively. Our day will begin with an early breakfast and will finish after our evening meal. mountain-environment.com perandersen.nu Page 2 of 8 21.10.20 Each day will be centred on visiting photogenic locations at dawn and dusk in order to exploit the best light conditions. Most of the locations will require us to walk some distance and often include some ascent and descent both on and off footpaths. However, some locations are by the road side. During the middle of the day, time will be spent visiting photogenic motifs under overcast, wet or misty conditions, enjoying a packed lunch or eating out, or spending free time in the beautiful towns and villages. -

G.B.E., LL.D. I HAVE the honour to make a few preHminary remarks upon the issue of the present volume. I presume to say forthwith that this result of the labours and investigation of the learned writer concerning the origin and history of our Clan will be welcomed by every one of the name, and associated with the name, both at home and overseas. We are all under a deep debt of gratitude to Canon R. C. MacLeod of MacLeod for yield- ing to our solicitations, and thus making available in permanent form his great store of knowledge upon a subject which inspires our pride and patriotism, and reanimates our spirit of continuing clanship. We express our high loyalty to our revered and honoured Chief—MacLeod of MacLeod—and to the House of Dunvegan. This volume, though particularly relating to ' The MacLeods of Dunvegan ' —and so limited in its title, as is properly the case, having regard to the special sources of information founded on—is not, however, thus exclusive in its scope.
