  • Preston Mill Teacher’S Information
    Preston Mill Teacher’s information Preston Mill is one of the oldest water-driven meal mills in Scotland. There has been a mill on this site for centuries. It was last in operation commercially as late as 1957. A century ago there were many mills operating along the River Tyne, serving the farmlands of East Lothian, but most have disappeared. The Preston Mill site comprises two pan-tiled buildings: the conical-roofed kiln for drying the corn and the mill containing the machinery for grinding the corn. The water system is still in place. A large iron water wheel (believed to have been produced by Alex Mathers & Son in 1910) powers the machinery. There is an exhibition on milling, with archive images and recordings, and some working models, within the outhouses. Phantassie Doocot is a 15-minute walk away along a well-marked track. It contains nesting places once used for 500 birds. The walk connects to a food theme – from mill to arable fields to the doocot. You can also opt to follow a footpath around the field and beside the river, for a longer walk. The school visit offers opportunities for cross-curricular work and engaging with the Curriculum for Excellence: • Guided tour of the mill - see the mill working and have the processes explained • Tours can be adapted to suit the requirements of your class. • Ranger led walks are available and can also be adapted to your needs – popular study areas: minibeasts; trees; plants. Please contact the Ranger Office. • Classes can be split in 2 for a themed visit: one group visits the Mill while the other group has a ranger- led walk to the Doocot; they then swap round.

The Scottish Iron Age provides rich data of international quality to link into broader, European-wide research questions, such as that from wetlands and the well-preserved and deeply-stratified settlement sites of the Atlantic zone, from crannog sites and from burnt-down buildings. The nature of domestic architecture, the movement of people and resources, the spread of ideas and the impact of Rome are examples of topics that can be explored using Scottish evidence. The period is therefore important for understanding later prehistoric society, both in Scotland and across Europe. There is a long tradition of research on which to build, stretching back to antiquarian work, which represents a considerable archival resource.

  • Transport & Accessibility Statement – Orchardfield, East Linton
    Transport & Accessibility Statement – Orchardfield, East Linton Introduction This statement provides an assessment of the existing transport conditions and indicative access strategy to support the Orchardfield, East Linton site located in the south-western corner of East Linton, East Lothian. The development of the proposed development site is expected to provide in the region of 100 residential units to the existing settlement of East Linton. The proposed development site is being considered in conjunction with a site located at Phantassie Farm, at the eastern edge of East Linton, however the following assessment considers the Orchardfield site individually in terms of transport and accessibility. Policy Context A review of the relevant transport planning policy and guidance has been undertaken to inform the creation of a framework for the proposed development site. Scottish Planning Policy (June 2014) Scottish Planning Policy (SPP) was last published in June 2014, and superseding the previous version from February 2010. SPP is the statement of the Scottish Government’s Policy on nationally important land use planning matters. SPP places great emphasis on the planning system and the preparation of local development plans to guide sustainable development. SPP states: “The planning system should support a pattern of development which optimises the use of existing infrastructure, reduces the need to travel, provides safe and convenient opportunities for walking and cycling for both active travel and recreation, and facilitate travel by public transport, enable the integration of travel modes, and facilitate freight movement by rail or water”. SPP indicates that a Transport Assessment should be prepared for significant travel generating developments, and sets out parking policies for development, including maximum national parking standards for certain land uses and minimum standards for disabled parking provision.
