    PLANTS OF PEEBLESSHIRE (Vice-county 78) A CHECKLIST OF FLOWERING PLANTS AND FERNS David J McCosh 2012 Cover photograph: Sedum villosum, FJ Roberts Cover design: L Cranmer Copyright DJ McCosh Privately published DJ McCosh Holt Norfolk 2012 2 Neidpath Castle Its rocks and grassland are home to scarce plants 3 4 Contents Introduction 1 History of Plant Recording 1 Geographical Scope and Physical Features 2 Characteristics of the Flora 3 Sources referred to 5 Conventions, Initials and Abbreviations 6 Plant List 9 Index of Genera 101 5 Peeblesshire (v-c 78), showing main geographical features 6 Introduction This book summarises current knowledge about the distribution of wild flowers in Peeblesshire. It is largely the fruit of many pleasant hours of botanising by the author and a few others and as such reflects their particular interests. History of Plant Recording Peeblesshire is thinly populated and has had few resident botanists to record its flora. Also its upland terrain held little in the way of dramatic features or geology to attract outside botanists. Consequently the first list of the county’s flora with any pretension to completeness only became available in 1925 with the publication of the History of Peeblesshire (Eds, JW Buchan and H Paton). For this FRS Balfour and AB Jackson provided a chapter on the county’s flora which included a list of all the species known to occur. The first records were made by Dr A Pennecuik in 1715. He gave localities for 30 species and listed 8 others, most of which are still to be found. Thereafter for some 140 years the only evidence of interest is a few specimens in the national herbaria and scattered records in Lightfoot (1778), Watson (1837) and The New Statistical Account (1834-45).

    DRAFT Cycle Tourism Strategy 2016 - 2021 Draft Scottish Borders Cycle Tourism Strategy 2016-2021 ‘Keeping up the momentum’ May 2016 Draft 1 DRAFT Cycle Tourism Strategy 2016 - 2021 1. Purpose of Document The purpose of this document is to set out a proposed five year strategy for cycle tourism in the Scottish Borders until 2021. It details the product strengths, the challenges and the ambitions of using cycling as a means to deliver economic benefit to the area. It also highlights key issues needing to be addressed. A proposed Action Plan details how three key objectives will be achieved through the support of collaborative working. This document will be used as part of a consultation exercise ensuring that all relevant partners and interested groups are fully engaged with prior to progressing an agreed Action Plan. 2. Introduction The Scottish Borders has a long-established and substantial leisure cycling offer along with world- class mountain biking at the 7stanes sites at Glentress, Innerleithen, Newcastleton, and also a series of natural trails. The natural assets of the Scottish Borders provides a wonderful cycling playground and a range of cycle friendly services. Unlike other activities, cycling1 is available throughout the Borders offering a good opportunity for geographic spread. Following the development of the 7stanes and a concerted effort to promote leisure cycling from 2009 via the Scottish Borders Recreational Cycling Group (SBRCG), cycling has become a key tourism product for the area. The SBRCG comprised a number of organisations and interests with either a remit for, or an interest in, the promotion of leisure cycling.

  • Birdwatching in the Scottish Borders
    BIRDWATCHING IN THE SCOTTISH BORDERS FREE FrontFront CoverCover Photo Dipper - LaurieLaurie Campbell Welcome to Birdwatching in the Scottish Borders This booklet is a guide to the best birdwatching sites in the Scottish Borders. The booklet has been produced by the Borders Branch of the SOC with help from individuals, local organisations and authorities. The Borders Branch of the SOC is always looking to receive records of bird sightings from anyone in the region to add to its own information as published in the annual Borders Bird Report. We welcome individual records and bird lists, such as from a day’s walk or a fortnight’s holiday, and not just of rarities. We particularly wish to receive observations from the maturing forests and indeed any site where you see birds that are not on the ‘expected’ list. If possible, please include a location, a grid reference and a date for each record. These should be sent to the Borders Bird Recorder, Ray Murray, by telephone to 01721 730677 or by email to [email protected] The Scottish Borders and its habitats for birds Located in the south-east of the country, the 4600 square kilometres of the Scottish Borders have the warmest and driest summer climate in Scotland. Together with a varied topography extending from the coast to over 800m in the Tweedsmuir Hills, these conditions have produced a diversity of habitats for both breeding and wintering birds. Compared with some other regions the Scottish Borders is not noted for high-profi le birdwatching reserves or a large number of hides and other facilities; rather its diversity of birds requires that visits be made to many sites, usually involving short walks.
