The views expressed by the author(s) of this report should not be taken as the views and policies of Scottish Natural Heritage. © Scottish Natural Heritage 2000. COMMISSIONED REPORT Summary Landscape Studies of the Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site Report No. F00LA01A Background A new World Heritage Site (WHS) known as the “Heart of Neolithic Orkney” was designated in 2000, covering several internationally important sites in west Mainland and overlapping with the National Scenic Area (NSA). Considerable development pressure exists, particularly for housing, and there was concern about the impacts this could have on the new designation. Historic Scotland and SNH jointly funded this landscape capacity study to analyse the situation and provide guidance. Aquaculture (fin-fish and shellfish farms) has developed in Orkney since the late 1970s. The landscape and visual impacts of these developments on the seascapes and landscapes of the county can be significant. This part of the study was commissioned to link in with a proposed Orkney Islands Council fish farming framework plan and Scotland-wide guidance being prepared by SNH.

  • The Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site: Research Agenda
    The Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site Research Agenda The Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site Research Agenda Edited by Jane Downes, Sally M Foster and C R Wickham-Jones with Jude Callister Historic Scotland 2005 Published by Historic Scotland ISBN 1 904966 04 7 © Individual authors Edinburgh 2005 Project grant-aided by Historic Scotland, Orkney Islands Council and Orkney Heritage Society, with support from Orkney College UHI As advisers to the World Heritage Committee, ICOMOS has drawn up guidelines for the management of World Heritage Sites and for research programmes to promote and co-ordinate research in the area. In Orkney this important task has been carried out with the contribution of a number of partners. It has been a collaborative venture involving many experts who have generously given freely of their time. I know that Historic Scotland has been delighted to support the Orkney College UHI in organising and co-ordinating the production of this Research Agenda for Scotland’s first archaeological World Heritage Site, The Heart of Neolithic Orkney. We very much hope that this Research Agenda will prove a model for Site managers throughout the world, as well as others dealing with the challenges and opportunities of their local archaeological inheritance elsewhere in Scotland.

Graphic © iDesign from original photograph courtesy of Anne Flint Orkney Local Development Plan 2017 Introduction 0.1 The Orkney Local Development Plan 2017 (referred to as “the Plan”) sets out a vision and spatial strategy for the development of land in Orkney over the next ten to twenty years. The Plan contains the land use planning policies which Orkney Islands Council will use for determining applications. It also contains development proposals for our towns, villages and rural settlements, and establishes settlement boundaries for each of these areas where the principle of development will be accepted. 0.2 The Plan replaces the 2014 Orkney Local Development Plan, and will provide the planning framework for the whole of Orkney. The Plan will be kept under review and will be replaced every 5 years. 0.3 This Plan is the outcome of extensive research and engagement with the Mainland and Isles communities which has been undertaken since the adoption of the 2014 Local Development Plan. Key agencies including Scottish Natural Heritage, Historic Environment Scotland, Scottish Water and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency have also been widely involved in its preparation. In particular, it takes into account the views expressed in response to the Main Issues Report 2015, which was a key stage in the consultation process.

The subject was first approached by the historian J. S. Clouston who published a paper entitled ‘Early Norse Castles’ in 1931, and this is the key starting point for the present study. A critical assessment of Clouston’s ‘castle’ research and his methodology revealed that there were certain weaknesses within his arguments and his classification system, and that the subject (virtually ignored for sixty years) was in need of re-evaluation and updating.
