Inverclyde, West Dunbartonshire, East Dunbartonshire, Million Tonnes of Coal and a Similar Output Was Produced from the Site at Damside, Near Allanton 200000 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 300000 10 20 30 COAL 90 250 300 90 Coal is a combustible sedimentary rock made of lithified plant remains. It is formed by the progressive biological and thermal degradation of vegetation, which is consolidated between other sedimentary rocks, notably seatearth, mudstone, siltstone and sandstone, to form coal seams (layers). These vary in thickness from a few centimetres up to rarely 3.5 m, although exceptionally thicker seams may also occur. Almost all onshore coal resources in Scotland occur in rocks of Carboniferous age (300 - 330 million years old) and the main strata containing coal seams at fairly regular intervals are referred to as 'Coal Measures'. The Clyde valley includes part of the Central Coalfield of Scotland and the Douglas Coalfield. The coal seams are mostly found in the Limestone Coal Formation, the overlying Upper Limestone Formation and the Lower and Middle Coal Measures. The Upper Coal Measures is essentially barren of coal. The Passage and Lawmuir formations have also been worked in the past. The majority of the INVERCLYDE, WEST DUNBARTONSHIRE, coals in the area are good quality and have low sulphur and ash contents. EAST DUNBARTONSHIRE, RENFREWSHIRE, SALSBURGH 1 1A The Central Coalfield forms a broad syncline, in parts of which lie unproductive Upper Coal Measures. Most of the Coal Measures lie on BARGEDDIE 1 SALSBURGH 2 the western limb of the syncline, which is a complex and faulted structure with many subsidiary structures such as the Salsburgh CRAIGHEAD Anticline in the south-west of coalfield and the gently dipping Lanarkshire basin in the south. The Douglas Coalfield covers a much EAST RENFREWSHIRE, NORTH LANARKSHIRE, smaller area in South Lanarkshire where much of the available resources of shallow coal have been worked out by opencast mining. PEDL104 Most of the worked coal seams are in the range from 0.5 - 1 m thick, exceptionally reaching 3 m thick mainly in the Limestone Coal SOUTH LANARKSHIRE and CITY OF GLASGOW ALKANE Formation and the Middle Coal Measures. Large areas of the coalfields are no longer worked either because they are exhausted or because the remaining coal cannot be worked economically at present. There has been a long history of coal mining in the Clyde valley with workings dating back 300 years in Paisley, but due to declining Mineral Resource Information for Sustainable Communities 6 50 industry and changes in mining methods during the 20th century deep mining has ceased in the region. The last operation was at the Backshot Mine, a small drift operation at Fort in 1988. Since the reserves at depth have been extensively mined over the last two centuries it is unlikely that sufficient coal remains to permit economic deep mining. Mineral Resources Despite the closure of all the deep mines coal remains an important mineral commodity in the Clyde valley. Considerable tonnages of Scale 1:100 000 shallow bituminous coal are currently being produced from opencast sites. Opencast coal mining can only be considered where the ratio Riskend (Ign) of coal to overburden is favourable. Factors affecting this ratio include the thickness of coal, the type and thickness of the overburden, the dip of the coal, its quality and the extent to which the coal has previously been worked. 80 Compiled by R.A. Smith, T. Bide, E.K. Hyslop, N.J.P. Smith, T. Coleman and A.A. McMillan. 80 Project Leaders: E.J. Bee and J.M. Mankelow.

The Limestone Coal Formation has also been worked near Lochwinnoch and around Forth at the Wilsontown site and at the Climpy Opencast site which also produced sandstone. There may be potential in the East Kilbride-Blantyre area (other than the Edge Craigmaddie Shallow coal with less than 50m overburden Farm site already worked), and between Kirkmuirhill and Carluke. The opencast operations at Pool Farm and Wester Mosshat are now closed.

GENERAL HISTORY SOCIAL HISTORY FAMILY HISTORY OCCUPATIONS ENVIRONMENT RELIGION MISCELLANEOUS Origins ORIGINS In prehistoric times, the natural place to settle would have been by the river Avon with its fertile holms and abundance of natural PRE-HISTORY resources. Evidence of early man can be found throughout the parish, enabling us to build a picture of how the community of Stonehouse developed over the centuries. The fact that a stone cist was found in the old kirk cemetery in 1937, confirms this site as a CASTLES place of pagan burial.

  • West Dunbartonshire Council
    PPAARRTTNNEERRSSHHIIPP CCOOMMMMIISSSSIIOONNIINNGG SSTTRRAATTEEGGYY Presented to: Joint Committee/Strategic Management Group Author: Norman Firth Date of Document: September 2011 Date of Revision: July 2013 Document Version: 4.0 1 Version 4.0: Revised July 2013 1. Introduction In “The Guide to Strategic Commissioning” (2009), the Social Work Inspection Agency (SWIA) defines this activity as: “the term used for all the activities involved in assessing and forecasting needs, agreeing desired outcomes, considering options, planning the nature, range and quality of future services and working in partnership to put these in place.” Implicit in this and other definitions is an activity which is cyclical and therefore dynamic. SWIA illustrates this via reference to a model developed by the Institute of Public Care (IPC). “The model is based upon four key performance management elements; analyse, plan, do and review. The model requires that each of the four elements receive attention, and all are kept in balance” (SWIA: 2009 from Joint Commissioning Model for Public Care: IPC: 2006). The overarching context for Criminal Justice Social Work (CJSW) is a framework of statutory duties within a public policy context focusing on reduction of offending and public protection against a background in which the service requires to improve effectiveness and reduce costs. 2. Focus This Commissioning Strategy relates to Criminal Justice Social Work Services. CJSW services principal duties and tasks relate to the assessment and supervision of offenders in the community either through the medium of community sentences or post release supervision following a custodial sentence. The Strategy refers to CJSW services and functions organised and delivered via formal partnership between Argyll and Bute, West Dunbartonshire and East Dunbartonshire Councils; referred to below as the Partnership (see below, Governance).
