I am also grateful to the British Council for granting me a scholarship which enabled me to study at the Institute of History, University of Oslo and to the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for financing an additional 3 months fieldwork in the Sunnmore Islands. My sincere thanks also go to Prof Ragni Piene who employed me on a part time basis thereby allowing me to spend an additional year in Oslo when I was without funding. In Norway I would like to thank Dr P S Anderson who acted as my supervisor. Thanks are likewise due to Dr H Kongsrud of the Norwegian State Archives and to Dr T Scmidt of the Place Name Institute, both of whom were generous with their time.

  • Review of Piers, Harbours and Ferries
    Review of Piers, Harbours and Ferries Executive Summary The Review of Piers, Harbours and Ferries has been carried out to ensure that there will be improvements for the benefit of the service and that of its customers. It is hoped that once the improvement actions and additional consultation has been undertaken that it will establish a piers, harbours and ferry service that provides best value to both the customer and client. Furthermore, the income streams to the Council will be both increased and channelled into the maintenance of our facilities. The review was undertaken by applying the four key principles of Best Value – Consult, Compare, Challenge and Compete. Consultation has already been carried out with neighbouring authorities and other relevant bodies to establish their custom and practice in marine issues particularly with regard to the collection of berthing dues and fish landing income. Additional consultation still needs to be undertaken especially with Caledonian MacBrayne, the Clyde Fishermen’s Association, the Waverley and the Ministry of Defence. Comparisons in the collection of berthing dues and fish landing dues have been made with neighbouring authorities and although different strategies were employed they were not significantly more efficient. The mechanism of composite rates is used in the Highland Council and in the Western Isles and whilst the administration charges are substantially reduced they still under recover. Competition has been considered and this element may be appropriate particularly when applied to the provision of the ferry service. The principle of challenging our approach has resulted in the consideration being given to the apportionment of costs within the piers and harbours budget and establishing a way forward for the ferry services.

  • Guide to Gaelic Origins of Place Names in Britain
    Guide to Gaelic origins of place names in Britain NOTE: This booklet is one of a series of 4 booklets which cover the language origins of place names in Britain for Gaelic, Scandinavian, Scots and Welsh. The booklets can be downloaded from the Ordnance Survey web site at http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk as PDF files. November 2005 The background to the creation of this guide Early in the 20th century, Ordnance Survey issued a small pamphlet, The most common Gaelic words used on the Ordnance Survey Maps, for use with the one-inch maps of Scotland. In 1935, the Board of Celtic Studies and the University of Wales compiled a similar booklet, The most common Welsh words used on the Ordnance Survey Maps, for use with maps of Wales. This was reprinted in 1949. Later it was decided to increase the scope of the Gaelic names pamphlet, so the Scottish Geographical Society undertook a complete recompilation and published an enlarged edition in 1951 which included a list of Scandinavian elements used in Scottish place names. In 1968, Ordnance Survey produced an A5 booklet, Place names on maps of Scotland and Wales, which combined revised versions of both earlier publications. The booklet underwent several reprints, with the last reprint published in 1995. In the booklet, Ordnance Survey thanked Dr W F H Nicolaisen of the University of Edinburgh's School of Scottish Studies for his advice on the Gaelic and Scandinavian elements, William Matheson, senior lecturer in the Department of Celtic Studies at the University of Edinburgh for the revised guide to Gaelic pronunciation, and the Board of Celtic Studies of the University of Wales for their help with the Welsh glossary.
