  • 13/04363/FUL: Mr John Mann, Corran Ferry Hotel, Onich, Fort William, PH33
    THE HIGHLAND COUNCIL Agenda Item 5.2 SOUTH PLANNING APPLICATIONS COMMITTEE Report No PLS/011/14 25 February 2014 13/04363/FUL: Mr John Mann Corran Ferry Hotel, Onich, Fort William, PH33 6SE Report by Area Planning Manager – South SUMMARY Description : Erection of restaurant and bar Recommendation - GRANT Ward : 22 - Fort William and Ardnamurchan Development category : Local Development Pre-determination hearing : None required Reason referred to Committee : Timeous objections from members of the public residing at 5 or more separate addresses. 1. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 1.1 Planning permission is sought for a replacement for the Corran Inn, which was demolished in late 2013. The proposed development would comprise a bar and restaurant, with the restaurant on ground and first floors, and a self contained one bedroom manager's flat, accessed via an external stair, on the first floor. The proposed footprint would largely coincide with the former building. 1.2 Informal pre-application enquiry 12/04272/PREAPP was submitted: change of use from hotel/B&B accommodation to 4/5 self catering units within existing building, with existing bar retained. Generally supportive response subject to occupancy controls to prevent units being sold off separately. 1.3 The site is just off the A82 approximately 9 miles south of Fort William, adjacent to the queue for the ferry crossing from Nether Lochaber to Ardgour, and next to the Corran Bunkhouse. There is a car park in front of the former Inn, accessed off the road to the ferry. No changes are proposed to the existing access and car park. 1.4 No supporting information submitted.

  • The Best of Walking in Scotland
    1 The Best of Walking in Scotland Scotland is a land of contrasts—an ancient country with a modern outlook, where well-loved traditions mingle with the latest technology. Here you can tread on some of the oldest rocks in the world and wander among standing stones and chambered cairns erected 5,000 years ago. However, that little cottage you pass may have a high-speed Internet connection and be home to a jewelry designer or an architect of eco-friendly houses. Certainly, you’ll encounter all the shortbread and tartan you expect, though kilts are normally reserved for weddings and football matches. But far more traditional, although less obviously so, is the warm welcome you’ll receive from the locals. The farther you go from the big cities, the more time people have to talk—you’ll find they have a genuine interest in where you come from and what you do. Scotland’s greatest asset is its clean, green landscapes, where walkers can fill their lungs with pure, fresh air. It may only be a wee (small) country, but it has a variety of walks to rival anywhere in the world. As well as the splendid mountain hikes to be found in the Highlands, there’s an equal extent of Lowland terrain with gentle riverside walks and woodland strolls. The indented coastline and numerous islands mean that there are thousands of miles of shore to explore, while the many low hills offer exquisite views over the countryside. There’s walking to suit all ages and tastes. Some glorious countryside with rolling farmland, lush woods, and grassy hills can be reached within an hour’s drive of Edinburgh and Glasgow.

  • Scottish Nature Omnibus Survey August 2019
    Scottish Natural Heritage Scottish Nature Omnibus Survey August 2019 The general public’s perceptions of Scotland’s National Nature Reserves Published: December 2019 People and Places Scottish Natural Heritage Great Glen House Leachkin Road Inverness IV3 8NW For further information please contact [email protected] 1. Introduction The Scottish Nature Omnibus (SNO) is a survey of the adult population in Scotland which now runs on a biennial basis. It was first commissioned by SNH in 2009 to measure the extent to which the general public is engaged with SNH and its work. Seventeen separate waves of research have been undertaken since 2009, each one based on interviews with a representative sample of around 1,000 adults living in Scotland; interviews with a booster sample of around 100 adults from ethnic minority groups are also undertaken in each survey wave to enable us to report separately on this audience. The SNO includes a number of questions about the public’s awareness of and visits to National Nature Reserves (see Appendix). This paper summarises the most recent findings from these questions (August 2019), presenting them alongside the findings from previous waves of research. Please note that between 2009 and 2015 the SNO was undertaken using a face to face interview methodology. In 2017, the survey switched to an on-line interview methodology, with respondents sourced from members of the public who had agreed to be part of a survey panel. While the respondent profile and most question wording remained the same, it should be borne in mind when comparing the 2017 and 2019 findings with data from previous years that there may be differences in behaviour between people responding to a face to face survey and those taking part in an online survey that can impact on results.

  • BOURBLAIG FAMILIES at the TIME of the CLEARANCES
    BOURBLAIG FAMILIES at the TIME of the CLEARANCES A search of baptism records available through the Scotland’s People data base reveals eleven families who were at Bourblaig at some time between 1800 and 1828: Hugh Stewart and Christian (Christina also known as Christy) Henderson of Buorblaig baptized: Isobel 11 Oct 1802 Margaret 12Jun 1807 Sarah 6Feb 1811 Dugald Stewart and Ann Stewart of Buorblaig baptized: Dugald born 17Apr 1803 Kenneth 16Oct 1810 Dugald Stewart and Mary McLachlan of Buorblaig baptized: Charles 21May 1803 Angus 31Aug 1805 Ann 15Dec 1810 John Stewart and Ann McLachlan of Buorblaig baptized: John 26May 1807 Mary 21Apr1809 Ann 17Mar 1811 Allan 13Mar 1815 Anne 21Sep 1817 Isobel 19Apr 1820 John Stewart and Mary Stewart (Cameron) of Buorblaig baptized: Mary 10Feb 1822 Dugald 10Nov 1823 Dugald Carmichael and Beth McLachline of Buorblaig baptized: John born 29Sep 1803 Dugald Cameron and Ann McDonald of Buorblaig baptized: Donald 24May 1807 John McDonald and Anne Cameron of Buorblaig baptized: Ewen 15Jul 1821 Alexander McIntyre and Anne Stewart of Buorblaig baptized: John 23Aug 1821 Allan McDonald and Anne McGilvray of Buorblaig baptized: Archibald 18Nov 1821 Ewen McKenzie and Kate McDonald of Buorblaig baptized: Mary 10Dec 1821 Of the eleven families listed above five are Stewarts, plus the family of Alexander McIntyre and Anne Stewart has a Stewart as a family member. We know Alexander, John and Duncan Dugald and possibly other Stewarts were at Bourblaig in 1782 from Ardnamurchan Estate records. We also know at least three families were still at Bourblaig for a short period after the Clearance from records of baptism: McColl, the man responsible for evicting the families from Bourblaig, was granted a tenancy at nearby Tornamona.
