    A Miscellany Of Bastle Houses by Tam Ward. 2017 . Further archaeological work done within the Daer Reservoir, South Lanarkshire PAGE 1 A Miscellany of Clydesdale Bastle Houses. Tam Ward With contribution by Ann Mathieson 2017 Abstract Since 1981 after the discovery that Windgate House near Coulter was a bastle house, search, survey and in some instances excavation, has revealed a series of hitherto unknown such houses in Upper Clydesdale. Research continues on the subject of Scottish bastle houses, and fieldwork, although now scaled down, continues also. This paper presents several sites which have seen less intensive research but are nevertheless important as part of the grouping of bastles and probably bastles in Upper Clydesdale, now part of South Lanarkshire. Introduction The following sites are given in this paper since they have not merited individual reports compared to those places which have been more thoroughly investigated, mainly by excavation and which are given on the BAG website (see references below). This work completes the reporting of sites which are confidently interpreted as bastle houses in Clydesdale, although other possible sites are known, and numerous localities where only historical references are now available, are also suspected as being of the bastle tradition of building and occupation in the 17th century (see Zeune 1992). Sites CARNWATH MILL Tam Ward 2015 By shear chance when visiting the late owner, Mr Tom Alison at Carnwath Mill Farm and on Biggar Museum business, the writer realised that the kitchen he was sitting in, and while having a cup of tea, was in fact part of a bastle house.

  • The Cathedral Kirk of Brechin
    30 Church Service Society Annual The Cathedral Kirk of Brechin ` ` BRECHIN-A Cathedral City "—this notice at the out- skirts of our small Angus burgh, lying approximately half way between Perth and Aberdeen, reminds the traveller of our heritage. On civic occasions we are proud to speak of our citizenship of the City and Royal Burgh of Brechin ; on Saturday evenings, football fans are familiar with the varying fortunes of our Football Team, Brechin City, whose ground is known as Glebe Park (once the perquisite of the Minister of the First Charge). With a population of less than 7,000 people, we may be a small burgh, apprehensive of what the Wheatley proposals will do to our community, but both natives and incomers are proud to be Brechiners and conscious that for close on a thousand years, the spiritual centre of our community has been the Cathedral. The first reference to this centre of Christian Life and Worship is to be found in the Pictish Chronicle, when in the reign of Kenneth II (971-995), it is recorded, " Hic est qui tribuit magnum civitatem Brechne Domino." It seems likely that prior to this date there was already a religious com- munity in existence, established by the Celtic Church. We can say then that the Church in Brechin was established in the Dark Ages and some time after King Kenneth 's gift of lands to the Culdee community, the famous Round Tower of Brechin was erected about 1000 A.D. With the advent of reform and re-organisation of Scottish Life undertaken by St.

Historians have broadly endorsed accounts of the public spectacles and official functions of the king’s sojourn in the city as ersatz Highland pageantry projecting a national identity devoid of the Scottish Lowlands. This study asks if evidence supports an alternative interpretation locating the proceedings as epochal royal patronage within urban cultural history. Three largely discrete fields of historiography are examined: Peter Borsay’s seminal study of English provincial towns, 1660-1770; Edinburgh’s urban history, 1752-1822; and George IV’s 1822 visit.
