  • Inveraray Jail - Prisoner Records
    INVERARAY JAIL - PRISONER RECORDS http://www.inverarayjail.co.uk/ USE THE EDIT / FIND ON TOOLBAR TO SEARCH NAMES and ENTRIES BY TOWN and VILLAGE By tradition and history 'the county town Argyll, Inveraray's courthouse and prisons, designed by James Gillespie Graham in 1813, after original plans by Robert Reid in 1807, opened in 1820 - Whilst Reid's original plans hadd included a courthouse and three prisons - one for males, one for females and one for debtors - The Prison Commissioners, lacking finances, had to be content with building only the courthouse and but one prison, eight cellss contained in its two floors - Following the 1839 Prisons (Scotland) Act, a second prison, separating men and women and designed by Thomas Brown of Edinburgh, was opened at the end of 1848, the new three-storied prison having twelve cells, an exercise gallery and a pair of outdoor exercise yards, the idea of separating male and female prisoners stemming from the somewhat misguided persuasion that such a system gave prisoners time to reflect upon their sins ! After the passing of the 1877 Prisons (Scotland) Act, the responsibility for the running and financing prisons taken away from local authorities, small local prisons were successively closed in favour of large prisons, such as Glasgow's 1882-built Barlinnie Prison and though Inveraray's jail, the last of the small prisons, was closed on August 31, 1889, courts continued to sit in Inveraray's courthouse until around 1954.4. After an extensive programme of restoration was undertaken by The Scottish Office in the 1980's, the building then lying empty for some years, Inveraray Jail was opened to the public as a 'visitor attraction' in May 1989 and the records of more than 4,000 of its Victorian prisoners put online for the interest of family history researchers.

  • A Walk on the Beach at the Southern Tip of Rosneath Peninsula, Argyll & Bute
    A walk on the beach at the southern tip of Rosneath Peninsula, Argyll & Bute. The air, the water and the land, and sadly, the litter. Tam Ward. 2019. A tiny part of Scotland – with so much to offer. Rosneath Peninsula and Upper Clyde Estuary, The southern tip of Rosneath Peninsula Argyll & Bute 1 The sky was a bland but beautiful shade of pale blue interrupted only by occasional and ever changing clumps of fluffy topped white and grey clouds, constantly modifying themselves into slowly moving and ever changing shapes, of curly topped travellers heading to some unknown destination across the horizons. The airborne islands of pearly white seemed endless in their seemingly mysterious source as the continued their journey – appearing from somewhere – and disappearing to – another place. Gareloch Gareloch and Helensburgh The skyward scene is only occasionally interrupted by the apparently motiveless flight of a bird or flock of them, sometimes alone but on other occasions as a flight of well-meaning direction, especially at some specific spot on the beach where they will swoop down as if with a single mind, perhaps sensing a good spot for lunch, or just taking a chance on one. Further out, especially if the sea is flat, the expert divers of gannet, tern or cormorant will streak down and disappear in a little flash of sparkling water, to erupt again some distance away, and If they were lucky, as they usually are – with their beak held quarry. Now and then a frenzy of such activity by a gang of birds would indicate a hapless shoal of fish had been detected near the surface.

  • Old Castle Lachlan to Kilmun
    Driving Tour between Old Castle Lachlan and Kilmun – connecting the Mausoleums of two historic Highland families, the Maclachlans and the Campbells Old Castle Lachlan – Newton - Strachur – Loch Eck - Benmore Botanic Gardens – Historic Kilmun This picturesque round trip through Argyll’s Cowal peninsula is approximately 50 miles and takes you from Old Castle Lachlan and Kilmorie Chapel on Loch Fyne, to Loch Eck, and ends at Historic Kilmun on Holy Loch near Dunoon. It contains several stopping places worth devoting plenty of time to. We recommend a whole day to see everything with an additional day if you would like to explore the many forestry tracks by mountain bike or on foot. Beginning at Old Castle Lachlan the tour will lead you down the banks of Loch Eck to the resting place of the Clan Campbell chiefs, the Dukes of Argyll, at Kilmun. There are beautiful views of the mountains with picnic stops and Forestry Commission walks along the way. Please remember to drive on the left and take your time on the winding narrow roads. Starting Point: Old Castle Lachlan, Lachlan Bay Old Castle Lachlan The ancient seat of the Maclachlan Clan makes a fine looking ruin and easy walking paths encourage you to explore and enjoy your surroundings. It is a hidden gem on Loch Fyne, standing out on the loch since the 15th Century, once a centre of local life. However, the castle has lain empty since the 17th Clan Chief took sides with Bonnie Price Charlie and died on the battlefield of Culloden in 1746. The current clan chief and his family live in the white 'new' castle you can see on your walk.

  • Friends of Botanic Gardens Forum Newsletter Edition 4
    FRIENDS OF BOTANIC GARDENS FORUM NEWSLETTER EDITION 4 1 Dear Friends, The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now. (Chinese proverb) Well, here at last the 4th issue of the Friends of Botanic Gardens Forum. I have to first of all apologise for the delay in getting this out to you – but I suspect you are all doing as I have been doing these past few months – catching up with friends, family, holidays, your own gardens, considering future events – live or virtual over the forthcoming autumn/winter months and perhaps getting back to volunteering in the gardens/arboreta with whom you are associated. Next up I want to thank you all for your contributions – I have found it so interesting reading about the gardens and the activities of your groups and volunteers. The descriptions are tantalising and I look forward to visiting all of your spaces at some point in the not too distant future. You will note that a number of the gardens are celebrating significant anniversaries. We have already heard about the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh - 350 last year, and this year, Oxford Botanic Garden – 400, but we also have Dundee Botanic Garden celebrating 50 years. The project which the Friends at Dundee have supported will be a great asset to the garden and the Dundee community. It has been difficult to mark these occasions given the variable Covid restrictions. Any of you who have visited Edinburgh in the past might have seen the Floral Clock in Princes Street Gardens – last year, the RBGE was due to feature on the clock, but a decision was made to focus on the NHS in recognition of its extraordinary work during the Pandemic.
