[THC29/4] An Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes, pp 29-31 extract. 2. Background National Planning Guidance/Advice 2.1 Scottish Planning Policy 15: Planning for Rural Development [CD17], was published in February 2005 following an earlier consultation draft and supersedes NPPG15. The following paragraphs are relevant: - 18. This states that SPP 3 remains the first point of reference on the general policy for housing; and that “This SPP advances policy in respect of small scale rural housing developments including clusters and groups in close proximity to settlements,………. The overall message is that there is considerable scope for allowing more housing developments of this nature and that this should be expressed in development plans, either as part of general settlement policy or as a separate sub-set on rural housing policy.” 21. This states that the amount and location of housing that can be developed in rural areas is determined by a number of factors, including proximity to services e.g. schools, shops (ideally within walking or cycling distance); ease of access; and drainage or sewerage capacity; and that fit in the landscape will be an important consideration. 2.2 Scottish Planning Policy 1: The Planning System para 41 states that, “Supplementary Guidance can be useful where: ….the level of detail is inappropriate for a development plan….” 42 states that “Supplementary guidance should be used to support statutory development plans, not as an alternative………………The relevance to the decision making process will also depend on the extent of public consultation on the guidance and it being kept up to date” 2.3 The Councils Development Plan Policy Guidance was drafted in May 2002 as supplementary guidance to the Structure Plan and approved in October 2003. In respect of its context to the Local Plan it was part of the consultation of the Consultative and Deposit Draft Ross and Cromarty East Local Plan. 2.4 In light of the production of the new SPP15: Planning for Rural Development a review of the Development Plan Policy Guidance is likely on criteria and opportunities for housing in the countryside. The land management criteria will remain but other justifications may be included. Highland Structure Plan Director of Planning and Development 2 Issue 29 –June/July 2005 Ross & Cromarty East Local Plan Inquiry 2.5 The Highland Structure Plan [CD1] was approved in March 2001. Paragraph 1.7.1 refers to the emergence from the sustainability objectives and the strategic themes the development of a number of general policies demonstrating the expectations of The Council with regard to any proposal for development. They cover a range of issues relating to sustainable development and are considered vital to the implementation of the Plan's strategic themes. More specifically, Policy G2 Design for sustainability indicates that “Proposed developments will be assessed on the extent to which they: “are compatible with service provision (water and sewerage, drainage, roads, schools, electricity); …………” 2.6 Policy H3 Housing in the countryside states that “housing development will generally be within existing and planned new settlements.” Development Plan Policy Guidelines 2.7 In October 2003, following previous consultation on a draft published in May 2002, THC published Supplementary Development Plan Policy Guidelines (DPPG) on Housing in the Countryside and Affordable Housing [CD6]. DPPG1 contains a more detailed interpretation of Structure Plan Policy H3 on Housing in the Countryside. This was drafted after discussions with Scottish Executive Planning officials and defines “existing settlements” as: • those identified through the Structure Plan and local plan settlement hierarchies (based on the provision of services); • groups of houses which have one or more of the following facilities: mains drainage or a scheme in SW’s 3-year plan; a public septic tank; street lighting; a 30 mph speed limit; a school, a doctor’s surgery, a shop, a post office, a petrol filling station, a public hall, or a pub; • established groups which comprise cluster, linear, or other recognisable forms of building without such a facility, but which are contained within a clear visual envelope; or • dispersed grouping with a crofting settlement pattern. 2.8 DPPG1 makes clear that such settlements are only to be defined where there are opportunities to make use of spare capacity to accommodate new housing, and where this would be consistent with, or enhance, the cohesiveness and visual appearance of the group. Generally, this will be within the existing boundary of the group, although there may be opportunities for some limited extension where the development will help to enhance the appearance of the group as a whole.

DISMISSED 31/03/03 04/00344/FULRC – Erection of Farmhouse, Swordale Farm - REFUSED 2.10 Applications in relation to the North and South Steadings relate to successful applications in relation to the conversion of existing farm buildings at Swordale. These applications have resulted in the development of 13 dwellings in compliance with Structure Plan policy H3 and the Development Plan Policy Guidance. The development of the Steadings has meant an increase of properties at Swordale from 13 to 23 houses, of which 3 at South Steading are still under construction, have provided a significant increase in traffic to the Swordale Road. 2.11 The applications in relation to the provision of a farmhouse both brought refusals in relation to non-compliance with the Development Plan Policy Guidelines[CD6] in regard to agricultural justification. 2.12 The appeal dismissed by the Scottish Executive, Inquiry Reporters Unit, Decision letter [THC29/3] relate to the requirement for a house in relation to national guidance and Structure Plan policy H3 in relation to land management requirement and granting of a previous application under agricultural justification relating to Swordale Farm, paras 20 and 21 of the decision letter.

This was primarily due to its strategic importance as the northern gateway into the Hebrides to the west, and Caithness and Sutherland to the north. The power derived from the earldom’s strategic situation was enhanced by the status of its earls. From 1215 to 1372 the earldom was ruled by an uninterrupted MacTaggart comital dynasty which was able to capitalise on this longevity to establish itself as an indispensable authority in Scotland north of the Forth.

  • Evanton IV16
    Dear Customer Evanton Post Office® Chapel Road, Evanton, Dingwall, IV16 9XT Branch Temporary Closure We are writing to inform you that, regrettably, following the resignation of the postmaster and the withdrawal of the premises for Post Office use, the above branch will be closing temporarily on Tuesday 12 January 2021 at 13:00. The provision of a Post Office service to our customers in the local community is important to us, and we will continue to work hard to restore services in the area as soon as possible. We would welcome any applications from potential retail partners interested in running a branch locally on our behalf. The vacancy is currently being advertised on our website www.runapostoffice.co.uk and applications will be carefully considered. If you are aware of any interested parties, please do share the link with them. I would like to assure you that we are currently investigating the options available which will enable us to reinstate a Post Office service to the local community. In exploring this, it is important that any future service is sustainable for the person operating the service, and for Post Office Limited. Future provision will reflect customer numbers and usage and we may take the opportunity to establish an alternative type of service. This may be a local style branch which runs alongside an established retail shop in newly refurbished premises and creates a more modern and convenient experience for customers. If you have any questions you would like to raise about this matter, please write to me via the National Consultation Team at the address shown at the end of the letter.

The woman, traditionally known as Janet Horne, warmed herself, thinking the fire had been lit to take the chill from her bones and not, as was actually intended, to burn her to death. Or so the story goes. This case is well known as the last example of the barbarous practice of burning witches in Scotland. It is also infamous for some of its more unusual characteristics – such as the alleged witch ‘having ridden upon her own daughter’, whom she had ‘transformed into a pony’, and of course, the memorable image of the poor, deluded soul warming herself while the instruments of her death were being prepared. Impressive materials, though the most familiar parts of the story did not appear in print until at least 92 years after the event!1 Ironically, although Gaelic-speaking Scotland has been noted for the relative absence of formal witch persecutions, it has become memorable as the part of Scotland that punished witches later than anywhere else.
