The Duchess had been influenced by Uvedale Price’s Essay on the Picturesque. Price had advocated an appreciation of the particulates of planting and farming, combined with local circumstances. With this inspiration the Duchess created an outstanding and unique example of late 18th A9P11-AMJ-EHR-Z_ZZZ_ZZ-RP-EN-0002 A15.1-1 A9 Dualling Northern Section (Dalraddy to Inverness) A9 Dualling Dalraddy to Slochd Stage 3 Environmental Statement Site Highland Grid ref Site Type Designation Site Name Description Period Value number HER/Historic and Environment Location Scotland Reference Number century picturesque designed landscape design. It has been noted that Kinrara makes a significant contribution to the scenic qualities and nature conservation values in Strathspey. The architectural features that fall within the area consist of Kinrara House. The large estate house was designed by John Smith and constructed in 1804. Farm buildings, kennels and a keeper’s cottage are situated to the north of the house. To the south-west of the house is a large memorial to the Duchess. The garden surrounding the house has largely been laid to lawn. Two herbaceous borders are situated to the south-west side of the house. The ‘Dell’ is located to the west and consists of an area formed by the excavation of earth forming a podium in which the House stands. This area was once the site of a shrubbery that had been laid out by the Duchess. None of the original planting survives.

The garden is elliptical in shape and is fenced off by a wooden palisade fence. The garden is no longer in use but several fruit trees remain on the grounds. Two access roads break of from the B9152, crossing the Edinburgh to Inverness line, before leading to the asset. During the mid-19th century there was an elaborate network of tracks and footpaths. Some of these paths can still be followed but, many have now been lost due to unused and overgrown vegetation. As a prime example of a mid- 18th century formal landscape, and in recognition of its inclusion on the Inventory of Gardens and Design Landscapes, Kinrara Garden and Designed Landscape has been assessed to be of high value. 2 HES number GDL00139 NGR 289281 Garden and Designated (GDL) Doune of Doune of Rothiemurchus is a 17th century High 809023 Designed Rothiemurchus picturesque designed landscape Landscape of outstanding historical value forms the main ornamental landscape character along this stretch of Strathspey.

The Kitchen Garden was built on a new site in the early 19th century and occupies a sheltered spot south-west of the Polchar. The garden was fenced and consisted of two enclosed areas. The gardens glasshouses are now in ruin due to neglect and all that remains of the gardens is traces of footpaths and a few fruit trees. Parkland is located to the south and east of the Doune estate. The area mainly consists of arable land although some parkland trees survive. Woodlands were long established and recorded by the estate from the 16th century and an extensive forest still survives on the hills.

SOLD BY THE AGENTS FOR THE COURANT; AND BY ALL BOOKSELLERS. : ELGIN PRINTED AT THE COURANT OFFICE, PREFACE, Thu ''Morayshire Directory" is issued in the hope that it will be found satisfactorily comprehensive and reliably accurate, The greatest possible care has been taken in verifying every particular contained in it ; but, where names and details are so numerous, absolute accuracy is almost impossible. A few changes have taken place since the first sheets were printed, but, so far as is known, they are unimportant, It is believed the Directory now issued may be fully depended upon as a Book of Reference, and a Guide for the County of Moray and the Upper District of Banffshire, Giving names and information for each town arid parish so fully, which has never before been attempted in a Directory for any County in the JTorth of Scotland, has enlarged the present work to a size far beyond anticipation, and has involved much expense, labour, and loss of time. It is hoped, however, that the completeness and accuracy of the Book, on which its value depends, will explain and atone for a little delay in its appearance. It has become so large that it could not be sold at the figure first mentioned without loss of money to a large extent, The price has therefore been fixed at Two and Sixpence, in order, if possible, to cover outlays, Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2010 with funding from National Library of Scotland http://www.archive.org/details/blacksmorayshire1863dire INDEX.

  • Place-Names of the Cairngorms National Park
    Place-Names of the Cairngorms National Park Place-Names in the Cairngorms This leaflet provides an introduction to the background, meanings and pronunciation of a selection of the place-names in the Cairngorms National Park including some of the settlements, hills, woodlands, rivers and lochs in the Angus Glens, Strathdon, Deeside, Glen Avon, Glen Livet, Badenoch and Strathspey. Place-names give us some insight into the culture, history, environment and wildlife of the Park. They were used to help identify natural and built landscape features and also to commemorate events and people. The names on today’s maps, as well as describing landscape features, remind us of some of the associated local folklore. For example, according to local tradition, the River Avon (Aan): Uisge Athfhinn – Water of the Very Bright One – is said to be named after Athfhinn, the wife of Fionn (the legendary Celtic warrior) who supposedly drowned while trying to cross this river. The name ‘Cairngorms’ was first coined by non-Gaelic speaking visitors around 200 years ago to refer collectively to the range of mountains that lie between Strathspey and Deeside. Some local people still call these mountains by their original Gaelic name – Am Monadh Ruadh or ‘The Russet- coloured Mountain Range’.These mountains form the heart of the Cairngorms National Park – Pàirc Nàiseanta a’ Mhonaidh Ruaidh. Invercauld Bridge over the River Dee Linguistic Heritage Some of the earliest place-names derive from the languages spoken by the Picts, who ruled large areas of Scotland north of the Forth at one time. The principal language spoken amongst the Picts seems to have been a ‘P-Celtic’ one (related to Welsh, Cornish, Breton and Gaulish).
