  • Wildlife Review Cover Image: Hedgehog by Keith Kirk
    Dumfries & Galloway Wildlife Review Cover Image: Hedgehog by Keith Kirk. Keith is a former Dumfries & Galloway Council ranger and now helps to run Nocturnal Wildlife Tours based in Castle Douglas. The tours use a specially prepared night tours vehicle, complete with external mounted thermal camera and internal viewing screens. Each participant also has their own state- of-the-art thermal imaging device to use for the duration of the tour. This allows participants to detect animals as small as rabbits at up to 300 metres away or get close enough to see Badgers and Roe Deer going about their nightly routine without them knowing you’re there.

  • Dumfriesshire
    Dumfriesshire Rare Plant Register 2020 Christopher Miles An account of the known distribution of the rare or scarce native plants in Dumfriesshire up to the end of 2019 Rare Plant Register Dumfriesshire 2020 Holy Grass, Hierochloe odorata Black Esk July 2019 2 Rare Plant Register Dumfriesshire 2020 Acknowledgements My thanks go to all those who have contributed plant records in Dumfriesshire over the years. Many people have between them provided hundreds or thousands of records and this publication would not have been possible without them. More particularly, before my recording from 1996 onwards, plant records have been collected and collated in three distinct periods since the nineteenth century by previous botanists working in Dumfriesshire. The first of these was George F. Scott- Elliot. He was an eminent explorer and botanist who edited the first and only Flora so far published for Dumfriesshire in 1896. His work was greatly aided by other contributing botanists probably most notably Mr J.T. Johnstone and Mr W. Stevens. The second was Humphrey Milne-Redhead who was a GP in Mainsriddle in Kircudbrightshire from 1947. He was both the vice county recorder for Bryophytes and for Higher Plants for all three Dumfries and Galloway vice counties! During his time the first systematic recording was stimulated by work for the first Atlas of the British Flora (1962). He published a checklist in 1971/72. The third period of recording was between 1975 and 1993 led by Stuart Martin and particularly Mary Martin after Stuart’s death. Mary in particular continued systematic recording and recorded for the monitoring scheme in 1987/88.

  • Glenlude Management Plan
    Management Plan Glenlude Estate 2012-2017 Introduction 1. Background Glenlude Estate is approximate 6 miles south of Innerleithen on the B709, in the Scottish Borders. It is a relatively small property of 140 ha The Glenlude estate was gifted to the John Muir Trust in 2004 by the late Shelia Bell who retained a life time tenancy until her death in November 2010. Sheila Bell had purchased the property in two roughly equal parts during 2000. These were Glenlude Forest (formally Kirkhouse) which had been planted by the Forestry Commission in 1995 and the open hillside of Glenlude hill farm as well as a strip of land on the west of the B709. Prior to 1995 both sections had been managed together as rough sheep pasturage within Glenlude hill farm. The John Muir Trust took over day to day management of Glenlude upon Sheila Bells death and included it in the remit of the East Schiehallion Conservation Manager post on its creation in March 2011. In March 2012 the Trust appointed a part-time conservation ranger to be based at Glenlude. 2. Vision for Glenlude Estate The John Muir Trust intends to manage Glenlude in line with its vision for wild land to support natural habitats and species. The Trust wishes to create and support a diverse landscape of native woodland, sustainable numbers of grazing animals, rich flora and abundant wildlife. These are defined with in the Trusts Wild Land Management Standards at www.wildlandmanagement.org.uk During the process of creating this diverse landscape the Trust intends to maximise opportunities for the involvement of volunteers at all stages.

  • A Landscape Fashioned by Geology
    64751 SNH SW Cvr_5mm:cover 14/1/09 10:00 Page 1 Southwest Scotland: A landscape fashioned by geology From south Ayrshire and the Firth of Clyde across Dumfries and Galloway to the Solway Firth and northeastwards into Lanarkshire, a variety of attractive landscapes reflects the contrasts in the underlying rocks. The area’s peaceful, rural tranquillity belies its geological roots, which reveal a 500-million-year history of volcanic eruptions, continents in collision, and immense changes in climate. Vestiges of a long-vanished ocean SOUTHWEST are preserved at Ballantrae and the rolling hills of the Southern Uplands are constructed from the piled-up sediment scraped from an ancient sea floor. Younger rocks show that the Solway shoreline was once tropical, whilst huge sand dunes of an arid desert now underlie Dumfries. Today’s landscape has been created by aeons of uplift, weathering and erosion. Most recently, over the last 2 million years, the scenery of Southwest Scotland was moulded by massive ice sheets which finally melted away about 11,500 years ago. SCOTLAND SOUTHWEST A LANDSCAPE FASHIONED BY GEOLOGY I have a close personal interest in the geology of Southwest Scotland as it gave me my name. It comes of course from the town of Moffat, which is only a contraction of Moor Foot, which nestles near the head of a green valley, surrounded by hills and high moorland. But thank God something so prosaic finds itself in the midst of so SCOTLAND: much geological drama. What this excellent book highlights is that Southwest Scotland is the consequence of an epic collision.

  • Regional Geochemical Patterns in South-East Scotland: Source Lithology, Inheritance and Glacial Overprinting
    Published in Scottish Journal of Geology, 2013, Volume 49, 33-40. Note that this version of the text does not include the Journal’s editorial and proof corrections Regional geochemical patterns in south-east Scotland: source lithology, inheritance and glacial overprinting P. Stone and A. A. McMillan British Geological Survey, Murchison House, West Mains Road, Edinburgh EH9 3LA [email protected] Synopsis The Lower Palaeozoic, Southern Uplands terrane shows a NE-SW, strike-parallel coincidence of regional geochemical lineaments defined from stream sediment data, and major, lithostratigraphically significant structures. West of Moffat, Silurian strata of the Gala and Hawick groups are divided by geochemical lineaments coincident with the Laurieston Fault. East of Moffat the geochemical lineaments diverge towards the north-east with Gala-type regional geochemistry (high Sr and Ba, low CaO) to the north of the Moffat Valley Fault, whilst Hawick-type regional geochemistry (low Sr and Ba, high CaO) continues to the south of the Laurieston Fault; between the faults lies the recently defined Ettrick Group. Beyond the eastern end of the Lower Palaeozoic outcrop its geochemical lineaments extend across the unconformable cover of Devonian ‘Old Red Sandstone’. This is partly a drainage catchment effect, but two other possible explanations are considered: a localized derivation of the Devonian clastic rocks such that they inherit the compositional patterns of the underlying Lower Palaeozoic sandstones, or a geochemical signature imposed by glacial deposits derived from the Lower Palaeozoic outcrop. The local effect of glacial dispersion is confirmed by the distribution of TiO2; anomalously high levels associated with Carboniferous mafic lavas have been transported north-east across the low-TiO2 Carboniferous sedimentary rocks of the Tweed Basin.

  • Moffat Mountain Marathon (Q.V.) Is Nevertheless a Demanding One Over Mainly Pathless and Remote, Uninhabited Terrain in High Mountain Country
    Moffat Hills Challenge – Final Version Page 1 of 3 MOFFAT HILLS CHALLENGE (MHC) The Moffat Hills Challenge is an Anytime Challenge Walk (or Run) over the Moffat Hills in the heart of the Scottish Southern Uplands. The MHC provides excellent views of one of Southern Scotland’s most impressive natural mountain landscape features, the Devil’s Beef Tub, as well as the high and lonely hills surrounding Fruid Reservoir. Following a short section along the Watershed of Scotland, it offers one of the finest routes to the summit of Hart Fell, a Corbett and the region’s highest and most well-known mountain. It finishes with a few miles of the deservedly popular Annandale Way long distance trail, its easy and pleasant walking allowing the tired walker/runner to wind-down after the rigours of the high mountains. Moffat is easily reached by car, being only one mile from the M74 motorway, junction 15, about 45 minutes drive from the northern end of the M6 near Carlisle. It is also easily reached by the M74 from Glasgow and Edinburgh and the Scottish Central Belt. Bus services operate from Carlisle, Lockerbie, Dumfries, Glasgow and Edinburgh. The town is well served with hotels, B&Bs and has an excellent Camping & Caravanning Club Campsite, which is open all year. The start of the walk is near the head of the Annan Water Valley, which is accessed by a minor cul-de-sac road. This begins at the far end of one of Moffat’s principle residential streets, Beechgrove, reached by bearing right (if coming from the south) at a mini roundabout at the northern end of the High Street.
