  • Population Change in Lochaber 2001 to 2011
    The Highland Council Agenda 5 Item Lochaber Area Committee Report LA/2/14 No 27 February 2014 Population Change in Lochaber 2001 To 2011 Report by Director of Planning and Development Summary This report presents early results from the 2011 Census, giving local information on the number and ages of people living within Lochaber. It compares these figures with those from 2001 to show that the population has “aged”, and that there is a large number of people who are close to retirement age. The population of Lochaber has grown by 6.1% (compared to the Highland average of 11.1%) with an increase in both Wards, and at a local level in 18 out of 27 data zones. Local population growth is strongly linked to the building of new homes. 1. Background 1.1. Publication of the results from the 2011 Census began in December 2012, and the most recent published in November and December 2013 gave the first detailed results for “census output areas”, the smallest areas for which results are published. These detailed results have enabled preparation of the first 2011 Census profiles and these are available for Wards, Associated School Groups, Community Councils and Settlement Zones on the Highland Council’s website at: http://www.highland.gov.uk/yourcouncil/highlandfactsandfigures/census2011.htm 1.2. This report returns to some earlier results and looks at how the age profile of the Lochaber population and the total numbers have changed at a local level (datazones). The changes for Highland are summarised in Briefing Note 57 which is attached at Appendix 1.

  • High Mingarry (Mingaraigh Ard), Moidart, Invernesss-Shire (NM 68827 70315)
    High Mingarry (Mingaraigh Ard), Moidart, Invernesss-shire (NM 68827 70315) A survey undertaken by the Moidart History Group, Comann Eachdraidh Mùideart, in Spring / Summer 2008 Historical background and notes High Mingarry (Mingearaidh Ard), Moidart High Mingarry viewed from the north. Bracken covers most areas of past cultivation. High Mingarry, Moidart. (NM 68800.70200) In historic records, the township of Mingarry appears as Mengary, Mingary and Mingarry. The original settlement was likely to have been sited to the north of the parliamentary road, at the place now known as High Mingarry where scattered ruins are evident. Aaron Arrowsmith's Map of Scotland 1807, shows that Mingarry was some distance to the north of the proposed Parliamentary road and that a track left the route of the road to the west of the Mingarry Burn and climbed the hill in a north-easterly direction to the settlement. The track then continued over the hill to the south shore of Loch Moidart to meet the route of the road near the River Moidart crossing point at the east end of the loch. The Lochshiel Estate Map, probably drawn up about 1811-1816 indicates that at that time the settlement of Mingarry was sited on the hillside to the north of Loch Shiel and to the north of the parliamentary road, mainly between two tributaries of the Mingarry Burn. At that time, there were no buildings near the road. Historic Background Pre 1745 The date of origin of the township is unknown. Moidart was part of the mainland Clanranald Estates. The settlement appears in lists of Estate rentals 1691-1771 as Mengary.

  • Mammal Report: Speyside and Ardnamurchan Peninsula, Scotland, October 2008
    Mammal Report: Speyside and Ardnamurchan Peninsula, Scotland, October 2008. Mike Richardson Introduction On October 12, 2008, I visited the Highlands of Scotland for a week. While wildlife watching wasn’t the primary aim of my trip, I was able to spend a reasonable amount of time birding and searching for mammals, mostly accompanied by my understanding but long suffering girlfriend. The first three nights were spent in Carrbridge, Speyside allowing us to explore the Findhorn Valley, Abernethy Forest and the Moray Firth area. For the remainder of the week we were based at Glenfinnan on the west coast of Scotland giving us access to Ardnamurchan and the Isle of Skye. While the weather could have been much worse, for the majority of the week we had to endure rain showers, mixed with sunny spells and low cloud. Temperatures were mild for the time of year. Accommodation/Food I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dalrachney Lodge (01479 841252) in Carrbridge for good food and hospitality. Glenfinnan Hotel (01397 722235) in Glenfinnan were also very accommodating and their bar meals were excellent. Unfortunately, this hotel is situated a little far from the mammal hotspots on the Ardnamurchan Peninsular so I would be reluctant to use them again purely for this reason. We had a couple of pre-night drive pub meals in Strontian, Ardnamurchan. The Ben View Hotel was far superior to The Strontian, in terms of both service and quality. Mammals Western Hedgehog Erinaceus europaeus Oct 18: One individual was seen crossing the road at night near the Natural History Centre on Ardnamurchan.
