Newsletter No.6
Newsletter No.6 Stuart McMillan MSP Greenock and Inverclyde Constituency Serving Port Glasgow, Greenock, Gourock, Wemyss Bay and Inverkip Hello and welcome to my latest newsletter. It has been a very eventful few months with both the Council elections and the recent General Election. The rules of Purdah mean that I have had to refrain from sending out my monthly newsletter as normal. First of all, I’d like to congratulate Ronnie Cowan on his successful re-election as MP for Inverclyde. Ronnie has been a hard working MP and has set off on a project to help deliver social and economic opportunities locally. This is a project that I am sure he can complete with another 5 years at the helm. I look forward to working with him to ensure that happens. I would also like to congratulate all of our recently elected councillors, including those who are new to their prospective roles. I look forward to working with them all over the coming years. I was delighted to pledge my support for the Women Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI) Campaign. The Scottish Government have campaigned tirelessly for a better deal for our older people – including by supporting the excellent WASPI campaign. In the Scottish Parliament, we have protected and invested in vital social policies like free personal care for the elderly and will protect the Winter Fuel Payment. The Scottish Government will continue to fully support the WASPI campaign in their efforts to secure fairness for the millions of women affected. Health Secretary Confirms No Cuts to ITU at IRH The Greenock Telegraph recently reported that employees and consultants have been informally told that the Intensive Treatment Unit (ITU) which caters for patients at the IRH who need intensive treatment after an operation, will close in January.

Administration and Divisions
COMMUNICATIONS 1 45 The palmy days of canal traffic both for passengers and goods have passed away. As railways were extended the importance of canals declined. The complete explana- tion of this is by no means easy. It has been attributed to their passing into the control of railway companies, but this explanation is not satisfactory. The smallness of the vessels in use and the consequent additional handling of goods undoubtedly militate against the greater use of canals in these days, when the whole tendency is to handle and carry goods in as large amounts as possible. With the adoption of improved methods of traction or propulsion, there seems no good reason why the importance of canal traffic should not to some extent be restored. 21. Administration and Divisions. Renfrew was originally included with Lanark as an administrative unit, the .separation having been made by King Robert III at the beginning of the fifteenth century. At first the position of sheriff was a hereditary one, and was held by one of the powerful families of the county. The first sheriff that we know of was John Semple of Eliotstoun, who held office in 1426 soon after Renfrew and Lanark were separated. The office remained in the Semple family till it was transferred to the Earl of Eglinton in 1648. Until the Reformation the lands belonging to the Abbey of Paisley were not under the jurisdiction of the sheriff. The abbot was supreme, and had his gallows for hanging men, and his pit for drowning women M. R. 10 146 malefactors.

Guide to Wemyss Bay 1879
Guide to Wemyss Bay, Skelmorlie, Inverkip, Largs and surrounding districts . – Published 1879 This download text is provided by the McLean Museum and Art Gallery, Greenock - © 2009 WEMYSS BAY. Although included in the quoad sacra Parish of Skelmorlie, Wemyss Bay is a separate group of houses, lying on the north side of the railway station, and, like Skelmorlie, is a watering-place of modern origin. The houses, numbering in all about 20, are irregularly built in a bay, with a beautiful beach gently sloping down to the water's edge, and securely sheltered from the north and east winds by a range of well-wooded heights. At either extremity, the bay is bounded by red sandstone rocks of irregular appearance, worn and honey-combed by the action of the waves. “A considerable extent of the beach to the north of the bay is also composed of this same red sandstone, intermingled with a coarse conglomerate and dykes of trap, but in several places it relaxes into a kind of rough gravel or shingle, which forms a convenient footing for the bather, and affords an easy launching place for small fishing boats, and other kindred craft.” Originally, Wemyss Bay formed part of the Ardgowan estate, (Sir Michael Shaw Stewart's), and was given to Wallace of Kelly in return for the lands of Finnock, in the year 1814. Kelly was sold in two distinct and nearly equal portions,—Mr. Scott of Glasgow purchasing the one (Kelly portion), and Mr. Wilsone Brown (also of Glasgow) being the purchaser of the other. The latter built the Castle (Castle Wemyss), and feued several portions of the ground, but was obliged to sell in the year 1860, when Mr.

Attention is also drawn to the Advisory Notice at the end of this Review Decision Notice. 1. Introduction 1.1 This Notice constitutes the formal decision notice of the ILRB as required by the Town and Country Planning (Schemes of Delegation and Local Review Procedure) (Scotland) Regulations 2008. 1.2 The above application for planning permission was considered by the ILRB at a meeting held on 6 March 2013. The ILRB was constituted by Provost R Moran, Councillors G Dorrian, T Loughran and D Wilson (Chair). 2. Proposal 2.1 The application proposal is for planning permission to form a vehicular access onto Gibshill Road and spread demolition material, which has been imported to the site without the benefit of planning permission, to an approximate depth of 500 mm across the site. Thereafter it is proposed to bring the site into use as a demolition contractor's storage and distribution yard. The use of the yard is to be limited to the storage of plant and vehicles, with no storage or crushing of demolition material.

Renfrew~H I Re Local H I 3Tory
RLHF Journal Vol.2 (1990) 2. Renfrewshire's historic monuments - a heritage under threat: A summary of local archaeological problems with a bibliography and brief site list. Gordon McCrae It is said that the past is another country. If this is true, the more distant past often seems like an alien planet. The recent welcome flood of books and pamphlets about the history of our area has done little to change this perception. The study and reinterpretation of medieval, Roman and prehistoric Renfrewshire remains sadly neglected. This may be due, in part, to the problems which confront a local historian trying to make sense of the archaeological record. These problems include (a) - lack of a current bibliography of sources, or an accessible site list, for use as an introduction to local monuments; (b) the fact that much important information is only available in out-of-print books and obscure periodicals; (c) the difficulty of dealing with the large gaps in the archaeological record; which is compounded by (d) ,recent wholesale reinterpretation of classes of monuments due to advances in archaeological techniques. Finally (e) the scientific and technical nature of these techniques which make them the exclusive preserve of 'experts'. Another persistent problem, since the demise of the Renfrewshire Archaeological Society, has been the lack of a local forum for people interested in discussion, fieldwork and preservation. Various bodies have sponsored investigations over the years - Paisley Museum, Glasgow Archaeological Society, Renfrewshire Natural History Society, The Ancient Monuments Inspectorate, The Ordnance Survey, and, more recently, the Regional Archaeologist and the Scottish Urban Archaeological Trust.
