  • The Political and Ecclesiastical Extent of Scottish Dalriada Pamela O’Neill
    Journal of the ustralian arly edieval A E M Association Vol ume 1 2005 volume 1 - 2005 The political and ecclesiastical extent of Scottish Dalriada Pamela O’Neill Abstract The Irish settlement of Dalriada on the west coast and islands of Scotland was formed sometime around the fifth century. It continued to exist as a distinct entity until at least the ninth century. Many of the principal sites within Dalriada have long been recognised, such as the political centre at Dunadd or the ecclesiastical centre on Iona. However, there is less clarity about the fringes of the territory over the 500 or so years of its existence. This paper discusses the documentary and, more particularly, the material evidence for the extent of Scottish Dalriada. Particular attention is given to Dalriada’s relationship to waterways, islands and coastal areas. Indications are sought concerning the political boundaries of the territory. Against this background, the geographical extent of the ecclesiastical organisation of Scottish Dalriada is considered. Around the fifth century CE, Irish immigrants from the north- eastern corner of modern County Antrim established a settlement on the west coast and islands of what is now Scotland. The settlement is known as Dalriada, after the Irish people called Dál Riata from whom most of the immigrants were apparently drawn. It was not until approximately five centuries later that the Dalriada joined their neighbours in Pictland to form the kingdom of Scotland. Documentary evidence for Dalriada during that interval is sparse, frequently ambiguous and difficult to interpret. There is, however, a considerable body of stone sculpture from Dalriada, which provides an opportunity to understand otherwise obscure aspects of social, cultural and religious life in Dalriada.

  • Distance Markers on the B833 Rosneath Peninsula Road and on the A814 Helensburgh Road to Milton
    Distance markers on the B833 Rosneath Peninsula road and on the A814 Helensburgh road to Milton. Tam Ward 2020 Introduction Distinctive mileage posts survive on the B833 and the A814 roads along the north Clyde coast. Normally described as ‘milestones’, these examples are all cast iron panels with place names, finger pointing hands, distances, and destinations in raised letters, numbers and motifs. They are given on various issues of OS maps as ‘MP’ (Mile Posts) but are not given on the 1st Ed OS maps indicating that they were installed later than circa 1860. The examples on Rosneath Peninsula are of the same style while the five others recorded on the A814 are different castings, the hand indicators being especially different in style. It is likely that the mileage panels were originally installed as a complete sequence, as a near complete run around the southern tip of the Peninsula between Coulport and Kilcreggan shows, where distances are given as 29, 28, 26, 25 and 24 miles to ‘Dunbarton’, it would appear than one panel (27 miles) is missing. If that is correct, then a considerable number are now missing, especially along the Gareloch where only three are still to be seen; one at Rosneath (No 7), one near Rahane (No 8) and the other at Garelochhead (No 9). The early editions of OS maps do show ‘MP’ and some of the distances from those positions indicating that panels were installed every mile between Coulport and Dunbarton. Interestingly, the early OS maps give the spelling Dumbarton for the town showing that in the mid-19th century there was no hard and fast rule regarding the naming of the County and town.
