PREFACE Since ever dwellers on the Continent were first able to navigate the ocean, the isles of Great Britain and Ireland must have been objects which excited their supreme interest. To this we owe in part the com- ing of our own early ancestors to these isles. But while we have histories which inform us of the several historic invasions, they all seem to me to belittle far too much the influence of the Norse Invasions in particular. This error I would fain correct, so far as regards Celtic Scotland.

  • Island Place-Names
    Island Place-names Dr Jacob King The names of Scotland’s islands are a fascinating window into the country’s linguistic landscape; the languages of the Gaels, the Vikings and the Angles have all left their mark across the north-western seaboard. The Earliest names Evidence from historical sources suggest there may have existed an unknown language in Scotland prior to the arrival of the later, historic languages. This language might have been utterly forgotten were it not for a handful of names of rivers, islands and regions. Many theories have been put forward as to the identity of the language from which these names derive and what the names may have originally meant, but the jury is still out on the majority of them. Names such as Mull, Unst and Uist all defy analysis. Likewise, Islay is from Gaelic Ìle, the -s- in the English form was inserted on analogy with words like isle and island, but its original meaning has nonetheless been lost. Lewis appears to be from a Norse word Ljóðhús meaning ‘song house’; this is rather an odd name to be given to an island, maybe the Norse adapted it from an earlier unknown language? Norse Names At least in the north, the first historical people to make their linguistic mark on the Scottish seaboard were the Norse or the Vikings. Being a seafaring people, it is no surprise that most Norse place-names appear round the coast of Northern Britain. In general, island names ending in -aigh, -ey, -ay and -a are of Norse origin, reflecting the Norse word for island, øy.

  • Atlantic Coast (Wester Ross) Project Tourism And
    Atlantic Coast (Wester Ross) Project Topic Paper: Tourism and recreation 1. Introduction This paper is one of a series prepared to help inform the future use and development of the coast and inshore waters of Loch Broom, Little Loch Broom, the Summer Isles and Gruinard Bay. The paper is the result of basic survey and evaluation work and should not be regarded as a policy document. It is however intended to help in the formulation of policy and to promote discussion. The Atlantic Coast project seeks to develop and test an integrated coastal zone plan for this area which can help in the evaluation of development proposals, guide investment, and minimise conflicts of interest. It aims to promote a balanced approach: one that can safeguard the area’s core natural assets and sustain or enhance its productivity over the longer term. This is an area which provides opportunities for a wide range of leisure activities. It has a dramatic and varied coastline, the attractive and lively fishing village of Ullapool, one of Scotland’s most scenic groups of small offshore islands, remote communities, sheltered anchorages, abundant wildlife, fine beaches, archaeological sites, some good wreck diving and a rich underwater environment. It is a popular holiday destination for tourists from the UK and overseas, many of whom are drawn by the beauty of the surroundings and the opportunities provided by the coast, sea and islands. Sailing and kayaking are increasingly popular with both tourists and locals, while cruise boats give visitors an opportunity to explore the islands and to see seals, porpoises and other wildlife at close quarters.

  • 1 Rural Economy and Connectivity Committee
    RURAL ECONOMY AND CONNECTIVITY COMMITTEE SALMON FARMING IN SCOTLAND SUBMISSION FROM SEA CHANGE WESTER ROSS Sea Change Wester Ross emerged as a community group set up to protect Wester Ross Marine Protected Area and give the public a voice for improved management of the marine environment. We speak for those in the community who care about the potential for recovery of the ecosystem, coastal economy and fisheries which are all interconnected. Since dredgers were banned, Sea Change has evolved into a think tank making our own conclusions on scientific and Government papers. These are often different from the prevalent Industry view, and sometimes also the authors. The context for our concern is that the greatest challenge our species is facing is to find solutions to rapid population expansion and an equally rapid loss of biodiversity combined with over fishing, global warming and ocean acidification. The Government’s intention to double salmon farms by 2030 ignores the limits of the ecosystem and the cumulative impacts it can absorb. Coastal economics in particular cannot be separated from the marine environment and many reports we have read focus exclusively on benefits to one industry and assume limitless capacity. Those of us in the think tank have an alternative coastal economy in mind - one built on an understanding of the interconnections within the ecosystem and true sustainability. This alternative economy would work with nature to build on the positive benefits restoration affords. Alistair Sinclair of the Scottish Creel Fishermen’s Federation (the creel and dive fisheries) has spoken of a vision for an alternative coastal economy built upon support for low impact fisheries.

  • Penguin Bolt Holes
    Penguin Bolt Holes PENGUIN BOLT HOLES – Augmented/Consolidated/Edited by RIBW The original PBHs were originally written in the early 1990's. For more information on Penguin, visit www.penguin.org.uk if it ever returns to the web. In the meantime, I have tried to bring together an overview of the harbours on the W coast of Scotland with enormous help from the photographs of contributors to the geograph website http://www.geograph.org.uk/ . For more data on harbours not covered here, also consult http://www.ports.org.uk/ . Please advise errors and omissions via email to contact<at>charteringhaven.com . [Replace ‘<at>’ by ‘@’]. Also, if you know how to contact Penguin, please let me know. Successful cruising in the Western Isles is largely dependent on making the right decisions when plans have to change when wind and weather are different from those forecast. With its lack of 'lit' harbours, decisions must always involve knowing how difficult the entrance is under failing light conditions. In addition some of the most useful harbours for specific wind directions are not listed in the Clyde Cruising Club pilots. The document describes harbours which a skipper may consider. However, this document is not suitable for any form of pilotage. It is merely an illustrated gazetteer of possible harbours. Initials at the end of each entry indicate the level of facilities ashore. "NF" means none! "SF" means small facilities - perhaps a small shop or a few houses but probably not a restaurant. "GF" means good facilities including a restaurant.
