  • Strathard Community Council Topic Discussion Action
    Strathard Community Council Minutes of meeting: Thursday 5th April 2018 Aberfoyle Memorial Hall Community Michelle Colquhoun Ros Dingwall. Gillian McEwan Councillors, Colin Smith, Fiona McEwan. Stuart Stephen . Attending: Cllr Martin Earl, Michelle Flynn.(Stirling Council), T McLellan (Minute Secretary). Billy Ronald (NP), Police Scotland, 36 members of the public Topic Discussion Action 1.Opening Introductions: Ros Dingwall chaired the meeting, introducing Donna Birrell of Rural Stirling Housing, and Ronnie McRae of Rural Highland Small Communities Housing Trust. 2.Apologies A Goulancourt, Trevor Geraghty 3. Prev Min Approval pending. 4. Matt Aris None 5. Rural Donna Birrell of Rural Stirling Housing and Ronnie McRae of Rural Highland Small Stirling Communities Housing Trust spoke on the proposed development at Kinlochard. Mr Housing McRae’s organisation works specifically with small communities to identify their needs, which differ from larger rural, or urban communities. The social and economic benefit of residents are prioritised by incorporating sports facilities, training centres, and other community-identified needs into projected developments. It was stressed that the organisation seeks to complement, rather than compete with the work of local authority housing departments, and all houses built are subject to the Rural Housing Burden, which prevents their resale on the open market. Ms Birrell confirmed that a site visit has been made, but emphasised the fact that negotiations have not been entered into with any organisation or individual at this point, and that no purchase has been made, as the development is dependant on community approval. Concerns raised regarding lack of infrastructure identified transport, local shop premises, broadband provision, mobile phone provision, electrical capacity, and water provision for fire engines as required services which do not currently have the capacity to support a substantial influx of residents.

  • Early Historic Settlement on the Western Carselands of the Forth Valley: a Reappraisal
    Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 137HARRISON (2007), 461–470 & TIPPING: EARLY HISTORIC SETTLEMENT OF THE FORTH VALLEY | 461 Early historic settlement on the western carselands of the Forth valley: a reappraisal John G Harrison* and Richard Tipping† ABSTRACT This paper challenges the view, widespread amongst historians and archaeologists, that prior to the Improvement period the carselands west of Stirling were devoid of settlement due to near-continuous peat mosses. The argument is supported by cartographic evidence of pre-Improvement settlement and by documentary evidence of farming and settlement from the 15th century onward. Settlement was concentrated along the river margins and most of the modern carseland settlements are recorded by the 17th century. Eighteenth-century writers thought that the mosses had always been discontinuous and identified the important relationship between settlement and soil-types across the carse. Fortunately, the scientifically and archaeologically important surviving peat mosses have made the area a focus of palaeo-ecological and geomorphological research in recent decades. The scientific evidence supports the historical conclusion that the mosses were likely to be discontinuous in the pre-Improvement period, providing attractive sites for early settlement along their margins and confirms the correlation between documented early modern settlement and soil types, themselves a reflection of the evolution of the carse in the post-glacial period. The modern landscape is not, in this view, simply a product of moss clearance but also includes land never covered by moss and land only partially reclaimed. The reasons why recorded archaeological evidence for settlement is confined to the margins of the carse are briefly considered, as are some of the wider historical implications (such as movement between the north and south of Scotland).

  • 10. Appendices
    10. Appendices Appendix 2: Report on Archival Research & Timeline th by Morag Cross, 17 ​ April 2019 ​ Contents Purpose and Scope 1 Timeline 4 Elizabeth Buchanan of Leny (c1701-76) 15 Acknowledgements 69 Bibliography 69 Archive Sources 70 National Library of Scotland (NLS) 70 Historic Environment Scotland (HES) 71 National Records of Scotland (NRS) 72 Purpose and Scope Leny Woods are situated in Callander Parish, on Leny Estate, which seems to have been a discrete unit for most of its history. This chronology of the woodland management is abridged from the accompanying complete report. Apart from this brief initial summary, the detailed interpretation of the documentary record is outwith the scope of the study. The initial search was for information about charcoal production specifically on Leny estate, but as very little data remained, the scope was rapidly widened. It included the general history of wood cutting, the associated contracts selling the growing wood for defined periods, and conditions of sale. The Buchanan of Leny papers in the National Records of Scotland consist primarily of title deeds and charters, and contain very few factors’ or financial records that might illuminate the approach to forestry and arboriculture. Some relevant papers may exist locally at Cambusmore estate, but it was not possible to visit. th Consequently, archives of the 18 ​ century Commissioners on the Forfeited Estates, and of the ​ Dukes of Montrose, were consulted for insights about surrounding areas. This gave context, contemporary woodcutting contracts, and activities similar to those occurring on Leny. Much of Forfeited Estates information covered the neighbouring Barony of Strathyre, which like Leny, adjoins Loch Lubnaig.

  • Erection of a Dwelling, Detached Garage and Associated Access in Principle at Land Adjacent to East of Hogwood House, Thornhill
    THIS REPORT RELATES STIRLING COUNCIL TO ITEM 6 ON THE AGENDA PLANNING & REGULATION PANEL LOCALITIES & INFRASTRUCTURE 6 SEPTEMBER 2016 NOT EXEMPT ERECTION OF A DWELLING, DETACHED GARAGE AND ASSOCIATED ACCESS IN PRINCIPLE AT LAND ADJACENT TO EAST OF HOGWOOD HOUSE, THORNHILL - MRS ELIZABETH K CLARK - 16/00235/PPP - HEARING 1 SUMMARY 1.1 This application was referred to the Planning and Regulation Panel at the request of Councillor Martin Earl on grounds of the current policy relating to new housing development in the countryside. 1.2 At its meeting on 2 August 2016, the Panel agreed to defer consideration of the application pending a site visit and Hearing. A site inspection is scheduled to take place on Thursday 1 September 2016 and a note of the site visit will be tabled. 2 OFFICER RECOMMENDATION(S) The Panel agrees to refuse this application for the following reasons: 2.1 In the opinion of the Planning Authority, the application is contrary to Stirling Council’s Local Development Plan Primary Policy 1 and Policy 1.1 since it is considered that the proposal would not satisfy the Council’s ‘Placemaking’ objectives as the development would not respect the topography of the existing building group or the established pattern of frontages to the public road. 2.2 In the opinion of the Planning Authority the application is contrary to Stirling Council’s Local Development Plan Policy 2.10 and Supplementary Guidance SG10, since it is considered that the proposed house plot represents a unsympathetic extension of a building group given the absence of an appropriate ‘topographic stop’.

  • The Cairngorm Club Journal 013, 1899
    THE MENTEITH HILLS. BY THE REV. GEORGE WILLIAMS, F.S.A. SCOT. WHOEVER is acquainted with that charming book, Dr. Brown's " Horae Subsecivae", will recollect the dainty manner in which the author has handled the girl-queen's residence in Inchmahome. Poor Mary! Tradition would make her out to have been a ubiquitous wanderer, planting trees, and tending bowers here, there, and every- where, and consecrating by her presence bedrooms and windows in baronial halls and castles throughout the length and breadth of the land. Near this isle, in the Lake of Menteith, where Mary when a mere child spent a week or two in the dead of winter, and where she is said to have had a child-garden, is the stretch of hills to be brought under the notice of our readers. Baillie Nicol Jarvie must have seen them when he paid his eventful visit to Aberfoyle. They extend from the Clachan to Callander. Although the highest of the Hills of Menteith has an elevation of only 1401 feet, and can be surmounted almost without pausing, yet their situation, in the centre of Scotland's finest scenery, makes them well worth our consideration. Hills, like prophets, are not without honour, " save in their own country". We are ready to own acquaintance with the distant, albeit failing to recognise worth at our very doors. The Menteith Hills are not generally known; Theand yet mosCairngormt persons that have ascended the Clubm have brought back an astonishing report of having seen four- teen lochs. We have been up several times without having seen all the traditional or conventional fourteen, but let us pay all due respect to tradition.
