  • Case Study 9 - Scotland North Coast
    Case Study 9 - Scotland North Coast 9.1. Introduction The North coast is 560km in length, running from the north-west at Cape Wrath eastwards to Duncansby Head and John O’Groats, with the Orkney Isles lying close offshore, and the Shetland Isles further into the North Sea. Its characteristics are varied with the North Sea interacting for the most part with rocky sea cliffs interspersed by small bays. As one of the least inhabited areas of Scotland there are a small number of abandoned villages and ruins and a few ports and fishing villages, which have stood the test of time, forced down to the coast by the rugged Highlands of the hinterland. The coastline is more structured along this part, characterised by a series of headlands, small bays and sandy beaches - a product of erosion themselves - acting as a natural buffer and providing important dune habitats for flora and fauna (Mendum et al., 20011). There is a small but eclectic mix of socio-cultural development in this area, retaining a distinctive Nordic influence whilst including the resting and submission point of wartime enemies, remnants of villages created or dispersed by the Highland Clearances, a chain of fifteenth century seaside mansions and a retired nuclear reactor (Barling et al., 19962). 9.1.1. Geology & Geomorphology The structure of the coastline is relatively solid in comparison to the fragmented western coast, with 74% (416km) comprised of hard or mixed geology and only 1% (7km) of soft coastline (Fitton et al., 20173). The geology of the area runs in strikes from south-west to north-east changing along the coastline from west to east.

Cross the road and continue straight on, following the John Muir Way signs. You will go through a small, wooded area and then across Gilbert Avenue and Lochbridge Road. Follow the path into Law View and turn right, with North Berwick Law on your left. At the end of this path turn left and follow the path to the car park. From here follow the signed path to the summit. Points of interest: 1. Scottish Seabird Centre – lots of opportunities for learning about the amazing wildlife of the Firth of Forth and its islands. 2. St Andrew's Old Kirk – ancient church with remains dating from the 12th – 17th centuries surrounded by medieval graveyard. Recent excavations have identified even earlier remains. 3. Boat trips – many operators sail from North Berwick Harbour. 4. Lodge Gardens and Grounds – Victorian designed Public Park. 5. North Berwick Law is the remnant of ancient volcanic activity and is a typical ‘Crag and Tail’ land formation as a result of glacial erosion during the Ice Age. There is also an earlier Iron Age hill fort with evidence of prehistoric remains. The Napoleonic lookout shelter on the Law was subsequently used in World War I.

  • A Typical Day on the Bass by Maggie Sheddan, Senior Bass Rock Landing Guide
    A Typical Day on the Bass by Maggie Sheddan, Senior Bass Rock Landing Guide 04:45 With the first glimmer of dawn breaking through the darkened sky, I raced down the road for a moment regretting my offer to bring flasks of tea and coffee for the film crew. Turning the corner at the Seabird Centre I stopped dead in my tracks, my mood transformed in a split second. The night sky turned purple and lilac with spreading fingers of deep reds from the rising sun, the calm sea reflecting the splendour. There, silhouetted in this changing scene, is our destination; the Bass Rock. Camera in hand, time stopped for five minutes. I watched and snapped as the orange and yellows painted out the night sky. How lucky am I to start my working day like this. 05:02 reality! I had 20 minutes to make the coffee and meet the film crew. Filming on the Bass had finished the previous day but the Bass Rock experience had taken them (as it does for many) by surprise. They wanted another chance to film this exceptional spectacle along with more footage of plunge diving gannets. (You can see this footage on the BBC's Nature's Top 40 programme on YouTube). My normal day during the gannet season starts at 05:15 with the latest weather and swell reports scrutinised while I have breakfast. The rucksack fills up: flask, food, waterproofs, gloves and hats plus suntan lotion and more. En-route I stop near Canty Bay and with binoculars have a good look at the sea around the Bass landing area.
