    MEMORIAL TO SIR EDWARD B. BAILEY, KT., M.C., F.R.S. (1881-1965) A. G. MACC/RUGOK 45 rhurbnrn Road, Edinburgh, Scotland Sir Edward Bailey, a geologist of the highest inter- national repute in the spheres of tectonics and ig- neous action, died in London on March 19, 1965, at the age of 83. He had been, in his time, held and petrographic worker and District Geologist on the Geological Survey of Great Britain, Professor of Geology in Glasgow University, and Director of the Geological Survey and Museum. Bailey's international eminence is attested by his Presidency of the International Pre-Cambrian As- sociation (1934-1937); by his election to foreign membership of the national scientific academies of Norway, India, the United States of America, Bel- gium, and Switzerland; by Honorary Fellowship of the Geological Societies of Amer- ica and of France; and by an honorary doctorate conferred by Harvard University (1936). At home he was awarded honorary doc torates by the Universities of Birming- ham (1939), Glasgow (1946). Belfast (1946), Cambridge (1952), and Edinburgh (1964). Edward Battersby Bailey, son of a medical practitioner, was born in 1881 in Marden, Kent. From Kendal Grammar School, in Westmorland, he won an open scholarship to Clare College, Cambridge, in 1899. He graduated in 1902 with first- class honors (in both physics and geology) in Part II of the Natural Sciences Tripos, and won the Harkncss scholarship. Many years later he was elected an Honorary Fellow of Clare College (1944). Bailey joined the Geological Survey in 1902 and worked in Scotland as a Geologist until 1915.

On the way back to the café we chatted about how we were ok walking long distances and decided that the next adventure would be this mammoth walk from Milngavie near Glasgow and Fort William in the Highlands. This was going to take some planning – our biggest adventure so far: eight days and nights away, covering an average of nearly 12 miles a day. We made a trip to the library and the WHW website to order a guide book or two, and soon got down to some serious planning. Dad has taught us that planning is the key to any good adventure. Mum and my little sister Phoebe (4) gave us the green light to spend eight days of our holiday on an adventure, but only on the condition they could be involved too, so they became our Support Crew. Campsites booked, we pored over maps, members of the general public was really Only five minutes into the walk, a wild deer photos and route guides, planned the food we great.

    Foreword LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL i Argyll and Bute is an incredibly diverse area with an outstanding natural environment, more inhabited islands than any other council in Scotland, miles of amazing coastline, small communities in remote rural areas and larger towns close to the central belt. The area is the second largest council area in Scotland and home to numerous award-winning businesses and services. The scale and diversity of our region presents great opportunities as well as major challenges in planning for the future development of the area. The Local Development Plan 2 plays a key role in promoting a successful future for Argyll and Bute by helping to deliver a prosperous and inclusive economy, safeguarding our environmental assets and planning for the future growth of our communities. In this time of economic uncertainty and faced with the challenges presented by climate change and a falling population, it is increasingly important for us to work together to achieve our shared objectives. Accordingly, the Proposed Local Development Plan 2 contains a strategy that is closely aligned to the Single Outcome Improvement Plan and with other key plans for the area. It sets out a land use framework for the next 10 years to promote, guide and manage development in Argyll and Bute. It also aims to support the delivery of new homes, create new employment opportunities and protect our natural and built environment through a suite of policies, proposals and deliverable development sites. The Proposed Local Development Plan 2 has been drawn up following a comprehensive engagement process with communities, developers, key government agencies and other stakeholders.
