Orchards Cultural Features CARSE OF GOWRIE ORCHARDS CULTURAL FEATURES Templehall Orchard looking South (© RCAHMS) Medieval window tracery at Charlestown Farm (© RCAHMS) Derek Hall January 2010 1 Introduction For the desk based element of this document the author consulted the National Monuments Record at RCAHMS in Edinburgh and was provided with data from the local sites and monuments record courtesy of Perth and Kinross Heritage Trust. Following the desk based element field visits were made to selected monuments and features although this was curtailed by December and Januarys deep snow and ice. The decision was made to identify sites in close proximity to each of the orchards that could meaningfully be connected when possible path networks were being considered. What is quite striking from this study is that there is also the potential for linking many of the orchard sites with each other as a few of the site types, Dovecots and Designed Landscapes for example, crop up quite frequently throughout the Carse. A set of suggested interpretative themes have been included in the appendix along with a named list of identified features by orchard and medieval documentary references to orchards and fruit trees. Each orchard entry has two maps, one from the First Edition Ordnance Survey of 1863 and a modern version which has been marked up with the orchard location (green for existing and red for no longer existing) and cultural features in the vicinity. The Ordnance Survey Landranger map supplied by the project team has also been marked up to indicate the position of cultural features using black crosses, orchard locations and extents were already marked on this map. The gazetteer is split into two sections, firstly by orchards that are still in use and then by orchards that no longer exist. 2 ORCHARDS THAT ARE STILL IN USE (18) Bogmiln Wester Ballindean Carse Grange, North of railway Carse Grange, The Retreat Carse Grange, South of the railway Clashbenny Errol Park Fingask Castle Flatfield Friarton/Barnhill Toll Inchyra Farm Megginch Castle Muirhouses Mylnefield Newbigging Pitfour Port Allen Templehall 3 Bogmiln Orchard 1st Edition Ordnance Survey map 1863 4 2 1 3 Ordnance Survey © Crown Copyright 2009.

It lies on level ground in arable farmland at around 5m OD. Three sides of a rectilinear ditched enclosure are clearly visible on the aerial photographs, with a gap on the NW. The enclosure measures about 18m NE-SW by 14m, within a ditch about 1m wide. A further ditch leads N from the enclosure and several less well-defined cropmarks are also present around the enclosure itself. Cultural Feature no 3 Powgavie Harbour Parish Errol NGR NO 2907 2533 NMRS site number NO22NE 20 SMR site number MPK4647 Site visits 18 th January 2010 History and Archaeology Powgavie, Perthshire: this harbour occupied the mouth of the combined Powgavie Burn and Bogmill Pow, and in 1837 it ranked, along with Port Allen [NO22SE 15.00] as one of the principal harbours of the district. In 1792 and 1842 it was recorded as handling coal, lime, manure and farm produce. Today the remains are overgrown, but the OS map surveyed in 1860-2 marks, on the right bank of the lowest meander of the stream, a quay about 135ft [41.1m] long, facing NW, with a returned portion, 40ft [12.2m] long, facing NNE. The former is in two straight sections, forming a blunt point on plan (Graham 1971). On a site visit in was noted that the road down to this harbour is now closed off by a gate (January 2010). 7 Carse Grange, north of the railway 1st Edition Ordnance Survey map 1863 8 Ordnance Survey © Crown Copyright 2009.

  • The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, C.1164-C.1560
    1 The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560 Victoria Anne Hodgson University of Stirling Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2016 2 3 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the Cistercian abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560, and its place within Scottish society. The subject of medieval monasticism in Scotland has received limited scholarly attention and Coupar itself has been almost completely overlooked, despite the fact that the abbey possesses one of the best sets of surviving sources of any Scottish religious house. Moreover, in recent years, long-held assumptions about the Cistercian Order have been challenged and the validity of Order-wide generalisations disputed. Historians have therefore highlighted the importance of dedicated studies of individual houses and the need to incorporate the experience of abbeys on the European ‘periphery’ into the overall narrative. This thesis considers the history of Coupar in terms of three broadly thematic areas. The first chapter focuses on the nature of the abbey’s landholding and prosecution of resources, as well as the monks’ burghal presence and involvement in trade. The second investigates the ways in which the house interacted with wider society outside of its role as landowner, particularly within the context of lay piety, patronage and its intercessory function. The final chapter is concerned with a more strictly ecclesiastical setting and is divided into two parts. The first considers the abbey within the configuration of the Scottish secular church with regards to parishes, churches and chapels. The second investigates the strength of Cistercian networks, both domestic and international.
