MACCULLOCH EDINBURGH AND LONDON OLIPHANT ANDERSON & FERRIER 1905 Jerusalem, Athens, and Rome, I would see them before I die ! But I'd rather not see any one of the three, 'Plan be exiled for ever from Skye ! " Lovest thou mountains great, Peaks to the clouds that soar, Corrie and fell where eagles dwell, And cataracts dash evermore? Lovest thou green grassy glades. By the sunshine sweetly kist, Murmuring waves, and echoing caves? Then go to the Isle of Mist." Sheriff Nicolson. DA 15 To MACLEOD OF MACLEOD, C.M.G. Dear MacLeod, It is fitting that I should dedicate this book to you. You have been interested in its making and in its publica- tion, and how fiattering that is to an author s vanity / And what chief is there who is so beloved of his clansmen all over the world as you, or whose fiame is such a household word in dear old Skye as is yours ? A book about Skye should recognise these things, and so I inscribe your name on this page. Your Sincere Friend, THE A UTHOR. 8G54S7 EXILED FROM SKYE. The sun shines on the ocean, And the heavens are bhie and high, But the clouds hang- grey and lowering O'er the misty Isle of Skye. I hear the blue-bird singing, And the starling's mellow cry, But t4eve the peewit's screaming In the distant Isle of Skye.

  • Uig Development Brief
    AGENDA ITEM 9 REPORT NO. SR/11/19 HIGHLAND COUNCIL Committee: Isle of Skye and Raasay Area Committee Date: 3 June 2019 Report Title: Uig Development Brief Report By: Director of Development and Infrastructure 1. Purpose/Executive Summary 1.1 This report seeks approval for the finalised version of the Uig Development Brief along with the suggested Council responses to comments made during the public consultation. The Brief sets out an agreed planning framework which will guide the physical development and transformation of the area over the next 20 years. A key part of this is to identify and coordinate development and regeneration opportunities, including those which may arise from Transport Scotland's investment in the Skye Triangle ferry routes which involves a major upgrade of Uig Harbour. Subject to Committee approval, officers will take steps to formally adopt the brief as statutory Supplementary Guidance to the Council’s Development Plan. 2. Recommendations 2.1 Members are asked to: i. consider the summary of comments received on the Brief and agree the Council responses as set out in Appendix 1; and ii. agree to adopt the Uig Development Brief at Appendix 2 as part of the Development Plan, subject to any non-material amendments or formatting changes, and clearance by Scottish Ministers. 3. Purpose of Project and Context 3.1 The Uig Development Brief covers an area around the commercial core of Uig, which lies immediately to the west of the Harbour. The Council’s existing Development Plan seeks to consolidate Uig’s role as the principal settlement on the western flank of the Trotternish peninsula and as a ferry terminal which generates significant economic activity for the local area.

This is in addition to about the same number, dealing with the traditions^ superstitions, general history, and social condition of the Highlands, and mostly prepared after business hours in the course of an active private and public life, including my editorial labours in connection with the Celtic Maga- zine and the Scottish Highlander. This is far more than has ever been written by any author born north of the Grampians and whatever may be said ; about the quality of these productions, two agreeable facts may be stated regarding them.
