  • Tayside Local Biodiversity Action Plan 2Nd Edition 2016-2026
    Tayside Local Biodiversity Action Plan 2nd Edition 2016­2026 Incorporating the local authority areas of Angus and Perth & Kinross Every Action Counts! Scottish Wildcat © Scottish Wildcat Action 2 Chairman’s Message Anyone glancing at this latest Biodiversity Action Plan for Tayside could be forgiven for feeling a little daunted at the scale of the tasks identified in the Actions. Indeed, the scale of what we need to do over the years ahead is large if we are to pass on to our future generations a land that is as rich and varied in all its forms of life as the one that we have inherited. The hope that we can rise to this challenge comes from the sheer goodwill of so many people and organisations willing to give their time and effort to look after our wildlife, whether it be found in the remoter hills or closer to home in our towns and villages. Great examples of what can be achieved when we work together with a little direction and thought applied can be found throughout the following pages. This Action Plan arrives at a time of great uncertainty, particularly in rural areas which have been so dependent on public funding for so much of our land use. Following the Brexit vote, we have to take the view that this must be an opportunity to improve on our delivery of so many of the tasks identified in this Plan and others which, if achieved, will improve the life of all of us along with all the many forms of life that we share this country with.

  • The Cairngorm Club Journal 059, 1922
    MORE SUMMER DAYS ON THE MOUNTAINS.—II. BY WILLIAM BARCLAY, L.D.S. III.—BEINN CREACHAN, BEINN ACHALLADER, BEINN A CHUIRN, BEN VANNOCH. BY nine o'clock next morning (21st June, 1921) we were at the east end of Loch Lyon ; and, standing among the straggling pine-trees at Invermearn, this upper Glen Lyon greatly fascinated us, the loneliness, the absolute stillness, the air of solitude and remoteness being very refreshing. On all sides rose steeply sloping hillsides, grass-covered to their summits, and, though we say it perhaps somewhat selfishly, we were glad that the road ended here and that there was no thoroughfare to the west, glad that there are still some spots left undisturbed to the pedestrian. On the way up the glen we were particularly struck with the fine profile of An Grianan (2,500 feet) above Cashlie (this old farmhouse is now being converted into a shooting lodge) on the one hand, and Meall Ghaordie (3,407 feet) and Creag Laoghain (2,663 feet) on the other, while from Invermearn Beinn Heasgarnich (3,530 feet) rose directly opposite in two long ridges, enclosing in their upper fold the fine north- facing corrie. Our thoughts, however, are not of Heasgarnich to-day, though sixteen years have elapsed since we wandered about its broad summit, but of some Theview-poin Cairngormt from which we can look out oveClubr the wild and dreary moor of Rannoch to the towering mountains of the north and west. At the head of Glen Mearn and only a couple of miles away stands Beinn Creachan (3,540 feet) (pro- nounced Ben a Chrachan) visible from base to summit, one small patch of snow still lingering among the rocks More Summer Days on the Mountains.

This was followed in 1987 with a two-day conference in Oban on fish farming and the environment. The club has close contacts with other conseKvation groups both locally and nationally, Zncluding the British Trustfor Orqitholofy, the Royal Societ for the Protection of Birds.

  • 37 Foinaven - Ben Hee Wild Land Area
    Description of Wild Land Area – 2017 37 Foinaven - Ben Hee Wild Land Area 1 Description of Wild Land Area – 2017 Context This large Wild Land Area (WLA) extends 569 km2 across north west Sutherland, extending from the peatlands of Crask in the south east to the mountain of Foinaven in the north west. The northern half of the WLA mainly comprises a complex range of high mountains in addition to a peninsula of lower hills extending towards Durness. In contrast, the southern half of the WLA includes extensive peatlands and the isolated mountain of Ben Hee. One of a cluster of seven WLAs in the north west of Scotland, flanked by main (predominantly single track) roads to the north, west and south, it is relatively distant from large population centres. The geology of the area has a strong influence on its character. Along the Moine Thrust Belt that passes through the north west, rocky mountains such as Foinaven and Arkle are highly distinctive with their bright white Cambrian quartzite and scree, with little vegetation. The geological importance of this area is recognised by its inclusion within the North West Highlands Geoparki. Land within the WLA is used mainly for deer stalking and fishing and, except for a few isolated estate lodges and farms, is uninhabited. Many people view the area from outside its edge as a visual backdrop, particularly when travelling along the A838 between Lairg and Laxford Bridge and Durness, and along the A836 between Lairg and Altnaharra, through Strath More, and around Loch Eriboll. The mountains within this WLA typically draw fewer hillwalkers than some other areas, partly due to the lack of Munros.

  • Description Geological Map of Sutherland
    DESCRIPTION OF THE GEOLOGICAL MAP OF SUTHERLAND. Br Pxo~.ssoa H~DD~. T was with considerable reluctance that I felt myself' compelled to I discard the system of coloration adopted in the Geological Survey Maps ; and rids I did only after the strongly expressed opinion of several geologists. ~t was not that I have any very intense desire to colour rocks after their natural tints, but I have an aversion to adopting a eolour suite which departs markedly therefrom ; or one which is in discordance instead of harmony therewith. One friend, a man of great scientific discretion, and himself an artist, writes me that when he looks at a recently published geological Map of Scotland, with its grey Torridon and its red Lauren- tian, he does not know whether he i~ standing on his head or his heels. I must say that I share the feeling intended to be therein expressed ; and hold that, if there is to he an absolute departure from the tone presented by the rocks themselves, we, at ]east, should not have the incongruity of a bed of a sombre or dark hue, reposing upon one of a markedly lighter tint. The co]ours, then, which have been adopted, if they differ from such as were formerly in use, have been selected upon the foregoing principles ; namely, some resemblance to nature, and the keeping the graver tints for the more profound rocks. There is what may be considered a departure from this, in the c~se of the lively tint given to the so-called "igneous rock." As this rock much resembles in many ways the Hebridian gneiss,--being only of a lighter tint,--a green was also chosen for it.
