  • 5 Loch Na Keal NSA: Identifying Study Areas Four Main Study Areas Were Identified for Loch Na Keal NSA
    Isle of Mull: Loch na Keal NSA Landscape Capacity for Housing Final Report May 2006 5 Loch na Keal NSA: Identifying Study Areas Four main study areas were identified for Loch na Keal NSA: • Inner Loch na Keal, which focuses on the inland reaches of the loch, where steep slopes give way to level land created by alluvial deposits • Outer Loch na Keal, which focuses on the settlements overlooking Ulva and the scattered islands and skerries at the mouth of the loch • Inner Loch Tuath, which focuses on the settlements along the inner northern shore of the loch • Outer Loch Tuath, which focuses on the largely linear sporadic settlement at the very western end of the loch 10 Isle of Mull: Loch na Keal NSA Landscape Capacity for Housing Final Report May 2006 7 Outer Loch na Keal This area embraces the stretch of road from Acharonich to just south of Kilbrennan. The steep slopes which characterise the inner loch are here replaced by areas of relatively level terrain and alluvial deposits which extend upwards from the shallow bays of the sound of Ulva and Laggan Bay. The coastline becomes very indented, with small islands adding to the interlock between land and sea. Ulva appears to be only just separate from the main island of Mull, with narrow waterways slipping between elongated islets. The vegetation is dominated by semi natural vegetation of unimproved grazing, wetland and occasional willow scrub. More level, drier fields of bright green grassland are located adjacent to the farms. The road winds its way along the edge of the steeper slopes, loosely linking the settlement and allowing a sequence of extensive panoramic views to be revealed at each crest and corner of its route.

  • Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan
    Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan 2011 In 2010 the Ross of Mull (including Pennyghael and Tiroran) and Iona were identified by Highlands and Islands Enterprise as being an area which could receive support through their Growth at the Edge (GatE) programme. This involved supporting an anchor organisation, in this case Mull and Iona Community Trust, to facilitate community growth through the employment of a Local Development Officer and the creation of a Community Plan based on consultation with the local community and a socio-economic analysis. The project is funded by Highlands and Islands Enterprise & LEADER. The document will always be open to suggestions and changes from the community and should not be regarded as being inflexible. Pennyghael village, A. MacCallum 2 Contents Introduction 4 How the plan was created 5 Our vision 6 Our Outcomes 6 Section 1 Population 7 Section 2 Physical Infrastructure 8 Section 3 Business, Employment & Economy 11 Section 4 Culture and Heritage 14 Section 5 Community Facilities & Social Infrastructure 16 How does the plan fit with European, national and local priorities 18 Timeline 20 Kilvickeon Beach 3 Introduction “It is a beautiful place to be brought up and you get to know everyone really well.” Oban High School Pupil About the plan In creating this plan, we aim to define our scope of activities over the next 5-10 years and give you an insight into how wide our ambitions are to be a sustainable community and where we, as a community, intend to go. The plan is an opportunity for our communities to control our development and implement projects, which will be of direct benefit to the Ross of Mull and Iona.

  • The Tunnock's Tour of Mull Rally 2007
    The Tunnock’s Tour of Mull Rally 2007 Last Updated 7 October 2007 Rally Headquarters and Rally Control will be in the Salen Hotel, and most of the Safety Team will be staying at the Isle of Mull Hotel, Craignure. All stage safety traffic will be on 81 MHz. and the ‘red’ and ‘blue’ UK General frequencies. All ‘mandatory’ and ‘optional’ radio points for each stage are shown in this safety plan, with the mandatory ones matching the information shown in the Road Book which is issued to competitors. RAYNET will provide links from all stages to Rally HQ at Salen. This year RAYNET is again providing a radio position finding system for the Road Closing Car, the Stage Set Up Officer, The Chief Safety Officer, the Chief Marshal, the Flying Control Car and the Road Opening Car. Subject to available equipment supplied by individuals who hold the necessary license, additional mobiles may also be covered. As the Chief Safety Officer and the Chief Marshal must contact Rally HQ directly after completing each stage, it is counter- productive to report their positions to Rally HQ, as doing so unnecessarily increases radio traffic. Radio operators should therefore not report these vehicles to Rally Control. The senior member of each Recovery vehicle will act as the Stage Safety Officer on their stages and as the vehicles are equipped with 81 MHz, and in most cases with RAYNET, they will act as the radio link between the locus of any incident, the start and end of the stage, and Rally HQ in Salen.
