Milngavie in Bloom 2019 Milngavie in Bloom Beautiful Scotland Milngavie in Bloom 2019 Milngavie, originally in Stirlingshire, was located in an area that became an enclave of Dunbartonshire on the orders of King David II (1324-1371). The town lies to the north west of Glasgow, about 7 miles from the centre of the city, situated in the valley of the Allander Water and River Kelvin, at the foot of the Campsie Fells. Despite this proximity to Scotland’s largest conurbation Milngavie has a quite separate identity and character. Milngavie began as a corn mill on the banks of the Allander Water, milling the corn grown by the many surrounding farms. It developed into a busy market town transporting agricultural products to Glasgow. Textile mills played an important part in the development of the town, along with associated print works, bleaching and dye works. A paper mill, laundry and aerated water factory also contributed to later industrial development. At present industrial activity is limited to a few industrial estates. Retail and service businesses are centred on the pedestrian precinct. Points of interest in Milngavie Starting point of the West Highland Way, Scotland’s first and world-renowned long distance walking route, opened in 1980 Antonine Garden, a replica of the Roman Bath House excavated in nearby Bearsden (recreated from the Glasgow Garden Festival of 1988) Conservation area and listed buildings – Gavin’s Mill 1664, Corbie Ha’ circa 1800 and Milngavie Railway Station 1863 Lennox Park gifted to Milngavie Town Hall, and the Lillie Art Gallery bequeathed by local banker Robert Lillie and opened in 1962 Town centre pedestrianised in 1974 with Copland & Lye clock donated to Milngavie Town Council Milngavie in Bloom Established in April 2008 with 5 members Clean Sweep litter picking formed in July 2011 Present committee: Chairman Douglas Cameron, Vice-chair Evelyn Parbrook, Secretary Tim Rhead, Treasurer Norman MacLeod, Clean Sweep Convenor Rona MacLeod, Membership Secretary Ian Pascoe, Minute Secretary Sandra Wilson, Fundraiser Anne Craw and Committee Member Sue Scott. Achievements Awarded Silver Gilt medal certificates in Medium Town category in 2015, 2016 and 2017 Awarded Community Involvement Award in 2015 Awarded Greening Grey Britain Special Project award by Royal Horticultural Society for work on the West Highland Way Awarded Community Champion award by Milngavie Community Council in 2017 Milngavie in Bloom Portfolio 2019 Milngavie in Bloom Portfolio 2019 We celebrated our 10th anniversary in 2018 and planted the Community Bed to acknowledge this milestone. We planted a large floral ten on the right-hand side and a variety of small plants, representing the surrounding environment on the left-hand side with a slate “river” bisecting the bed, representing the Allander Water, topped with a model water mill. July 2018 We held a celebration in late July attended by the Provost and representatives from several local organisations. The Allander Walkway project links to the West Highland Way, but is very different, being a community project with a group of residents from the Allander Road estate joining with Milngavie in Bloom. Phase 1 involved bulb planting and creating two beds of flowers at the entrance to the estate. August 2018 Phase 2 is focussed on the restoration of a 1970s garden in the middle of the estate. Named The Italian Garden, and built on a series of shallow terraces the garden originally won a prize, and is of an unusual and original design with big rock sculptures. The aim here is not only to restore the garden, but to revitalise the community and become a focal point for meeting and talking to neighbours. June 2018 Milngavie in Bloom Portfolio 2019 Our West Highland Way team, made up of Ramblers volunteers alongside Milngavie in Bloom volunteers, has met almost every month, excepting winter months, for the past 5 years. Enthusiasm has not waned and the achievements can be seen in the rich variety of planting including a stretch of wild flowers. Our efforts to improve the soil condition on the West Highland Way flower borders are certainly showing results; over the past two years we have added over four cubic metres of composted bark, multipurpose / ericaceous compost when planting, and fish, blood and bone, chicken manure pellets and seaweed meal as fertilisers. Selective pruning of the trees now allows more light for under-planting which has also helped growing conditions. September 2018 The maturing and new planting now has something in flower everyday of the year! Something the regular passers-by comment on and share their enjoyment of seeing what is coming up throughout the seasons. Walkers on the West Highland Way also comment and show their appreciation. Some perennials are thriving, such as campion, geraniums, cirsiums and mallow that have been lifted, divided and replanted in the borders. Having a better understanding from our experience of the challenging growing conditions we have planted astilbies, goats beard, more hostas, foxgloves, and bluebells, snowdrops, pachysandra and epimediums in the shaded areas under the trees. We received a gift of 5 saplings from Jo Swinson MP donated by the Woodland Trust as part of the Queen’s Commonwealth Canopy. The trees, hazel, rowan and silver birch have been planted in various locations. November 2018 We have maintained colour throughout the town all year round starting in spring with the snowdrops, crocuses, daffodils, bluebells and primula before the summer bedding is planted. Milngavie in Bloom Portfolio 2019 Spring 2019 We delivered nasturtium seed to six schools and have received information about the planting from three schools. Two schools have used the nasturtiums to brighten up their own playgrounds, however, Clober Primary have planted the nasturtiums in their herb garden. To protect the beds in Kirk Wynd from parked cars the council engaged a contractor to build a stone wall that meant we had to raise the ground level. We removed all the shrubs and plants from Kirk Wynd in March and in May we added compost to the bed. The bed has now been replanted with new shrubs and herbaceous plants. March 2019 May 2019 Carers Link garden continues to be developed by a willing group of volunteers, who have taken over pruning the shrub hedging as we were not happy with the way the Council cut it at the wrong time of year and so it did not flower. April 2019 Milngavie in Bloom Portfolio 2019 Regular litter picking sessions have continued twice every month throughout the year. April 2019 As 2018 was Milngavie in Bloom’s 10th Anniversary we held BIG CLEAN SWEEPS in spring, summer and autumn. At our Big Spring Clean in March 2019, we had 55 volunteers who collected 82 bags of litter, which were removed by the Council. March 2019 Staff from Tesco and McDonalds joined in, helping to drag supermarket trolleys, traffic cones and other heavy items out of the Allander Water. March 2019 Drinking dens in the local woods are a big problem and we have had work parties hacking down huge swathes of brambles in order to reach the underlying cans and bottles. Some of our solo volunteers keep certain roads clean on a regular basis, which is a huge help, as new litter appears daily due to the increase in new housing and traffic. September 2018 Milngavie in Bloom Portfolio 2019 A few of our volunteers have formed the Upstream Battle Anchor Group, monitoring litter in and on the banks of the Allander Water over a twelve month period, as part of a survey of River Clyde tributaries for Beautiful Scotland. February 2019 One of our committee members also participated in the Source to Sea Week, collecting litter from the Forth and Clyde canal during May. May 2019 Mosshead Primary School organised a litter clearance by pupils and parents. We were able to lend equipment and volunteers. The Council has responded promptly to every report of fly-tipping that we have made to them. The Council has provided 3 new very large bins in the precinct and we have commissioned 2 large dog fouling posters, in an effort to deter dog fouling. Thanks to a donation from the local gardening club we were able to purchase two 6-foot long pickers which are a boon for collecting litter through the railings down on to the river bank. Although we are frequently disheartened, many residents tell us that we are making an impact on the cleanliness of our community. Milngavie in Bloom Portfolio 2019 We were contacted by the staff of this outdoor travel company who offered their time to help with our work. Groups of six or so came to help us on three occasions at the Italian Garden, the Ellangowan Bed and the Community Bed with great results. October 2018 June 2018 July 2018 Clober Primary School Pupils grew sunflowers from seeds we provided and we were invited to the schools Eco assembly to see the results for ourselves. We gave the school some pallets to use for raised beds. September 2018 In March a few of us helped pupils to plant 60 trees donated by the Woodland Trust in the school grounds. March 2019 Milngavie in Bloom Portfolio 2019 We donated and erected a polytunnel at the school where they could grow herbs from seed, as we asked the school to plant up the Community Bed. May 2019 Milngavie Youth Centre We have held work parties with the youths to assist in the weeding around the Centre. October 2018 Carers Link A few of our volunteers help to maintain the tranquil garden at Milngavie Enterprise Centre where Carers Link have their offices. Our volunteers also helped the Young Carers at a seed planting evening.

  • A NEW MUCKLE ASH for BALMORE in December 1994
    A NEW MUCKLE ASH FOR BALMORE In December 1994, flooding of the River Kelvin severely damaged many low-lying areas of its valley, including Balmore in the parish of Baldernock. This small rural parish lies north of Glasgow, between the large urban areas of Milngavie and Kirkintilloch. Numerous homes had to be evacuated, and their restoration lasted over six months. The people of Baldernock commemorated this devastating event by planting an ash tree near the high-water mark of the flood at Acredyke, beside the main road west of Balmore. The project was led by Baldernock Community Council and supported by the local council, the Kelvin Valley Countryside Project, and the Scottish Wildlife Trust. An ash was chosen because of a famous local predecessor of the mid-19th century, the ‘Muckle Ash of Balmore’. This was reputedly one of the finest trees in the west of Scotland, and was much admired and visited until it was felled in the 1850s to provide timber for the coach-building trade – described at the time as ‘tree murder’. Local resident Magnus Magnusson planted the new ‘Muckle Ash’, with the assistance of Baldernock Primary School pupils, in March 1996. The ceremony was followed by a reception at which Magnus gave a moving speech, and he likened the Muckle Ash to the mythical Nordic tree Yggdrasil. Although the flood was an important event in local history, few residents now appreciate the significance of the tree. Therefore, the twentieth anniversary of the planting was marked in April 2016 by the commissioning of a large memorial stone, carved with a text to commemorate the great flood and explain the tree’s purpose.

  • A Profile of the Health & Well-Being of Glasgow
    A Profile of the Health & Well-being of Glasgow Glasgow’s Healthier Future Forum 30th November 2005 Preface This document has been created as an accompaniment to a presentation at the 2nd Glasgow’s Healthier Future Forum (organised by the Glasgow Centre for Population Health (GCPH)) on November 30th, 2005. The data will be presented by David Walsh and Bruce Whyte of NHS Health Scotland as part of an ongoing collaboration with GCPH. The presentation - and accompanying report - incorporates a small subset of a much broader collection of data which will be published in early 2006 as part of a descriptive report on the health and well-being of Glasgow and the West of Scotland. The data included within these pages, therefore, are not intended to be - and indeed could not be - comprehensive. They are merely illustrative examples of Glasgow’s health. The theme of the presentation is an analysis of those health and well-being related factors in Glasgow which are improving, those which are worsening, and those which are proving resistant to change. Within that theme, the data are presented within the following ten topics relevant to health: the historical context, population dynamics, the economy, the social environment, the physical environment, behaviour, pregnancy & childbirth, children’s health, health & function, and illness & disease. An additional handful of charts showing projections for a few key health related indicators are also included. Note: a number of the charts presented here are derived from analysis of the 2004 Community Health & Well-being Profiles produced by NHS Health Scotland. In these cases the data are presented at two geographical levels: ‘community’ (primary care-based localities with populations ranging from 20,000-140,000 people) and postcode sector (small areas with populations of around 3,000-5,000 on average).

(SC = Stirling Council. CC = Community Council. CDT= Community Development Trust * De- notes an action) 1. Welcome from the Chair ML welcomed everybody to the meeting. 2. Apologies and Declarations of Interest Apologies: Philip Graves. There were no declarations of interest. 3. Police Report PC Martin reported that there had been very little crime in the last month. The police continue to carry out road checks in the village to deter travelling criminals, drunk drivers etc. He highlighted Police Scotland’s national doorstep crime initiative, which has achieved significant results. There was a report of possible bogus workmen in the village and of suspicious people selling items around residential premises. There was also a report of a suspicious vehicle. Police attended these reports, but no crimes had been committed. PC Martin urged everyone to continue to report anything they think is suspicious. Hand held radar has been continuing in the area to detect speeding drivers. There were a num- ber of road accidents in the area, including one at the roundabout on Glasgow Road, but no seri- ous injuries. PC Martin has been talking to the Camera Safety Unit regarding the positioning of the camera van in the villages. ML asked PC Martin if they are planning to introduce the Herbert Protocol to help elderly people who wander. Families can complete a form with information about the person so that the police have something to work with immediately.

  • NBG Report for KCC Meeting 19 Apr 2017
    NBG Report for KCC Meeting 19 Apr 2017 Further progress! The new fibre cabinet at the Killearn exchange is now live, accepting orders, and some residents have already got the service installed and working. Speeds are reported to be as expected at 30Mbps or more. So if you live in “The Trees”, nearby, or in the centre of the village, you should be able to get “super-fast broadband! About 50% of postcodes in the village are now connected to one of the fibre cabinets. Status of your individual connectivity can be checked on either of the WhereandWhen pages of the BT Openreach or Digital Scotland websites or in the tables at the end of this report. This site is also showing a download of the exchange roll-out list, but as this is only at exchange level, it doesn’t help very much. NOTE: Remember the Digital Scotland “Better Broadband Scheme” provides a subsidy to establish a better connection using either satellite or wireless for those currently getting download speeds of less than 2Mbps. See the KCC website for specific links. Balfron has also got more cabinets with 85% of the village now showing as “Accepting Orders”. Strathblane/Blanefield is in a similar position with slightly over 85% of the village covered. Buchlyvie has nearly 90% showing as connected while Croftamie/Drymen is showing nearly 60% Accepting Orders. All this does have to be qualified though as many premises are on long lines, and whilst they will see a significant benefit in speed (double or better), they will not achieve “super-fast” speeds.

    BALDERNOCK COMMUNITY COUNCIL Minutes of the Meeting 03/08 held on 28th. May 2008 Present: Mark Hazell, chairman Prof. Peter Langhorne, treasurer Geoffrey Jarvis, committee member John Hansen, secretary Rev Andrew Lees Councillor Anne McNair PC Steve McInnes Jo Swinson MP - part time 12 other members of the community 1. Apologies None 2. Minutes of Meeting 02/08 One item in the minutes was disputed - the planning item TP/ED/08/0132. The details of the application taken from the EDC notes are wrong. There is no garage or decking involved in the proposed works. In order to avoid any further promulgation of EDC errors it was agreed only to list new items and to refer readers to the EDC Web site for details. The secretary has had responses from EDC Planning to our submissions re. screening the new offices at Stent foundations and from Rangers FC about their floodlights. We are to take note of when the lights are on after 10 p.m. or when the pitches are not in use and to get back to them with these details. Further to an insubstantial response from EDC Roads about the potholes, pavements and flooding up Craigmaddie it was agreed that we should photograph the details of our complaints and send them to EDC roads. Mark led a vote of thanks to those who turned out on our clean up day to litter pick the Linn, Bardowie and Balmore, and to Councillor Anne for all her work to set up facilities. 3. Police Matters PC McInnes reported the following since the last meeting: • Vehicle with no Test Certificate, 2/4/08 on Auchenhowie Road.
