Scotia Homes is a privately owned, multi-award winning property developer based in Ellon, Aberdeenshire. Scotia has set itself apart by adopting a flexible approach to its developments, having the ability to create both suburban and innovative urban “townbuilding” ENERFIELD style developments which prioritise placemaking. The Company was founded in 1990 and its prudent approach to risk management has ensured continued successful trading, even through the years following the world wide financial crisis of 2008. In order to differentiate itself from other developers Scotia identified urban design principles as the way forward by creating sustainable FOVERAN neighbourhoods, providing better places for people to live and work. VILLAGE Scotia’s first mixed use urban development at Glenside, Rothienorman was awarded Overall Winner in the Scottish Government Awards for Quality in Planning in 2010 and the company has continued to develop urban design led developments within the City and Shire. Scotia have recently completed a successful and award winning LDP Allocation Phase 1 Housing scheme at Drumrossie Incsh. Current developments under construction along the Energetica/A90 corridor include Castleton Phase 1 Housing Ellon, Knockhall Newburgh, Dubford Bridge of Don and Charleston Phase 2 Housing / Mixed Use Cove.

  • Church of Scotland Records Held by Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire Archives
    CHURCH OF SCOTLAND RECORDS HELD BY ABERDEEN CITY AND ABERDEENSHIRE ARCHIVES A GUIDE CONTENTS INTRODUCTION i ABERDEEN PRESBYTERY RECORDS 1 ST NICHOLAS KIRK SESSION RECORDS 4 GREYFRIARS KIRK SESSION RECORDS 12 NIGG KIRK SESSION RECORDS 18 ABERDEEN SYNOD RECORDS 19 ST CLEMENTS KIRK SESSION 20 JOHN KNOX KIRK SESSION RECORDS 23 INTRODUCTION Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire Archives holds various records relating to the Church of Scotland in Aberdeen. The records are held by Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire Archives on behalf of the National Archives of Scotland under what is known as ‘Charge and Superintendence’. When the Church of Scotland deposited its records in Edinburgh, a decision was made that where there were suitable repositories, local records would be held in their area of origin. As a result, Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire Archives was designated as a suitable repository and various records were returned to the city. Microfilm copies of the majority of the original volumes can be viewed in the National Archives in Edinburgh. All Church of Scotland records begin with the reference CH2 followed by the number allocated to that particular church. For example, St Nicholas is referenced 448, therefore the full reference number for the records of the St Nicholas Kirk Session is CH2/448 followed by the item number. If you wish to look at any of the records, please note the reference number (this always starts with CH2 for records relating to the Church of Scotland) and take care to ensure the record you wish to view covers the correct dates. You do not need to note the description of the item, only the reference, but please ensure you have identified the correct item.

  • August 2019 Newsletter
    August 2019 Newsletter Firstly, thanks very much to you all for your interest and joining Grampian Cycle Partnership! We have been overwhelmed by the many really kind and supportive comments we have received to date. We are absolutely committed to working positively for cycling across the north east. GCP truly believe we can encourage more people to take up cycling or cycle more by working constructively together with the army of committed and enthusiastic people already doing some fantastic pieces of work across the City, Shire and Moray. Over the last few months, GCP has been meeting with partners and other stakeholders on several projects as well as being involved in ongoing cycling issues for the region. We are taking this time to review what’s going on and tell you what we have been up to. We genuinely think it’s an exciting time for cycling in the area and GCP’s partners have been at the forefront. Please find below some information on what we’ve been involved with so far. Westhill to Aberdeen cycle path An initial open meeting was held with cyclists who use this path to discuss the issues and set up a working project group to document these issues and work with the councils to develop the improvements to this important corridor. This cycle path continues to be among the busiest routes in the whole of the north east. Stonehaven to Aberdeen cycle path At our last meeting we committed to form a similar group for the links to and from the City from the south.

We believe that this development has the potential to overcome many of these issues and make Foveran a destination for modern living. Foveran sits in the heart of the new Energetica and Strategic Growth Corridors, therefore is ideally located for investment and development. We would like to assist in bringing this disjointed community together to create a village with new employment opportunities, modern amenities and a school with updated facilities.

  • Foveran Links SSSI NCA Review – Earth Sciences
    Foveran Links SSSI: NCA Review (Assessment of Geomorphology) Foveran Links SSSI NCA Review – Earth Sciences Dr Alistair Rennie Page 1 Doc ID: A1882825 Foveran Links SSSI: NCA Review (Assessment of Geomorphology) Summary and Recommendation: 1. The construction of Menie Links Golf Course within Foveran Links SSSI has removed the vast majority of the geomorphological interest within the vicinity of the golf course. Therefore there are insufficient scientific interests to merit a geomorphological SSSI within the Menie Links. Given the absence of the supporting geomorphological processes, this analysis suggests that the ecological designation is untenable within the foot print of the golf course. 2. The earth science interests remain within the GCR site within the northern half of Forvie Links. 3. Two of the SSSI’s most striking features have been destroyed: 99% of the Menie sand sheet has been lost as a result of the golf course, 90% of the Sandend Burn sand sheet has also been lost. 4. Whilst not pre-judging the ecological advice, my recommendation is that de-designation of the Menie Links part of the SSSI is justified based on the loss of landforms and processes, and that a new southern boundary for the SSSI is considered further north, either coincident with the GCR site or from Drums Burn to incorporate ecological interests within the southern part of Foveran Links.
