  • 13/04363/FUL: Mr John Mann, Corran Ferry Hotel, Onich, Fort William, PH33
    THE HIGHLAND COUNCIL Agenda Item 5.2 SOUTH PLANNING APPLICATIONS COMMITTEE Report No PLS/011/14 25 February 2014 13/04363/FUL: Mr John Mann Corran Ferry Hotel, Onich, Fort William, PH33 6SE Report by Area Planning Manager – South SUMMARY Description : Erection of restaurant and bar Recommendation - GRANT Ward : 22 - Fort William and Ardnamurchan Development category : Local Development Pre-determination hearing : None required Reason referred to Committee : Timeous objections from members of the public residing at 5 or more separate addresses. 1. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 1.1 Planning permission is sought for a replacement for the Corran Inn, which was demolished in late 2013. The proposed development would comprise a bar and restaurant, with the restaurant on ground and first floors, and a self contained one bedroom manager's flat, accessed via an external stair, on the first floor. The proposed footprint would largely coincide with the former building. 1.2 Informal pre-application enquiry 12/04272/PREAPP was submitted: change of use from hotel/B&B accommodation to 4/5 self catering units within existing building, with existing bar retained. Generally supportive response subject to occupancy controls to prevent units being sold off separately. 1.3 The site is just off the A82 approximately 9 miles south of Fort William, adjacent to the queue for the ferry crossing from Nether Lochaber to Ardgour, and next to the Corran Bunkhouse. There is a car park in front of the former Inn, accessed off the road to the ferry. No changes are proposed to the existing access and car park. 1.4 No supporting information submitted.

  • Loch Arkaig Land Management Plan Summary
    Loch Arkaig Land Management Plan Summary Loch Arkaig Forest flanks the Northern and Southern shores of Loch Arkaig near the hamlets of Clunes and Achnacarry, 15km North of Fort William. The Northern forest blocks are accessed by a minor dead end public road. The Southern blocks are accessed by boat. This area is noted for the fishing, but more so for its link with the training of commandos for World War II missions. The Allt Mhuic area of the forest is well known for its invertebrates such as the Chequered Skipper butterfly. Loch Arkaig LMP was approved on 19/10/2010 and runs for 10 years. What’s important in the new plan: Gradual restoration of native woodland through the continuation of a phased clearfell system Maximisation of available commercial restocking area outwith the PAWS through keeping the upper margin at the altitude it is at present and designing restock coupes to sit comfortably within the landscape Increase butterfly habitat through a network of open space and expansion of native woodland. Enter into discussions with Achnacarry Estate with the aim of creating a strategic timber transport network which is mutually beneficial to the FC and the Estate, with the aim of facilitating the harvesting of timber and native woodland restoration from the Glen Mallie and South Arkaig blocks. The primary objectives for the plan area are: Production of 153,274m3 of timber Restoration of 379 ha of native woodland following the felling of non- native conifer species on PAWS areas To develop access to the commercial crops to enable harvesting operations on the South side of Loch Arkaig To restock 161 ha of commercial productive woodland.

  • Stag Season Review 2012 Scottish Stag Review Tony Jackson High-Quality Deer and Good Weather Made the 2012 Season the Best in Several Years
    ADMG – Knight Frank 2012 Stag Season Review ADMG - Knight Frank 2012 Stag Season Review 1 Aberdeenshire The reports received for 2012, despite the weather, highlight the season as one of the best in recent 2 Angus 3 Argyll years. If the beasts are in good fettle that's a good thing - without that then the whole sector has 4 Arran and Bute no foundation. 5 Caithness 6 Dunbartonshire 7 Inverness-shire While we have read in the media about a very few areas where deer numbers still require some 8 Perthshire adjustment, or where different estates or interests within the same Deer Management Group find 9 Ross-shire/Isle of Lewis it hard to agree a compromise regarding the way forward, on the ground there appear to be fewer 10 Sutherland problems and a significant move towards consensus management. We are sure that this is as a up the shot Setting Kingie, 11 Wigtownshire consequence of the Wildlife and Natural Environment Scotland Act that placed a duty on all those with deer on their ground to manage them sustainably whilst continuing to allow them to do so under the voluntary principle. 5 9 10 With the Act came the Code of Deer Management, and an ongoing campaign to improve general competence levels of those who shoot deer. This too is moving in the right direction; the standard of DSC Level 1 was agreed as the benchmark, although it is hoped that many deer managers and 9 stalkers will aim higher, and figures suggest that uptake is good ahead of a review by Government in 2014.

  • Clan Chatt An;
    AN ACCOUNT OF THE CONFEDERATION OF CLAN CHATT AN; ITS KITH AND KIN. PREPARED AT THE REQUEST OF THE CLAN ASSOCIATION IN GLASGOW. BY CHARLES FRASERaMACKINTOSH ' OF DRUMMOND, LL.D., F.S.A., SCOT. GLASGO\V: JOHX :\I.ACK.A Y, " CELTIC :\IO~THLY" OFFICE, 9 BLYTHS\VOOD DRIVE. FREFACE. HIS book has been undertaken by request of the active and zealous T Clan Chattan Association in Glasgow, who, having given the name, accept the responsibility, and therefore relieve me from the animadversions of some critics, who object to the term " Minor'' Septs of Clan Chattan. Thus, though not bound to defend the name assigned, it is at least incumbent to say that no slur was, is, or can be intended. \Vhile the Clan Chattan had its head and leader, to whom all the 1ue1nbers gave obedience when it met as a whole; yet composed as it was of various tribes, with different surna1nes, it resulted that each tribe had its Chieftain, supreme over his own tribe, but subsidiary to the Captain, as a matter of prudence and policy. Clanship was necessarily, in its original form, elective and voluntary. If, after experience, the clan flourished under its elected Chief, there was naturally a disinclination to break off from the victorious leader, or his successors.
