Craigkelly transmitting station

The Craigkelly transmitting station is a broadcasting and telecommunications facility located at Craigkelly (grid reference NT233872) north of the Firth of Forth above the town of Burntisland in Fife, Scotland. It has a 125-metre tall free-standing lattice tower reassembled after being moved from its original location at Emley Moor, West Yorkshire, where it was used to broadcast the 405-line ITV service between 1956 and 1966. The station came into service in 1968 to improve coverage of BBC2 to the Edinburgh area, which has a number of hills blocking good reception from Black Hill. In September 1971 it also started broadcasting BBC1 and Scottish Television on 625 lines in colour and though considered a 'main' station, it actually rebroadcast the signal from the Black Hill transmitting station, like a relay. Since DSO in 2011 however, all feeds to the station are by fibre optic cable, with microwave links provided as a backup. In March 1983 Channel 4 was added (five months after programmes began), however Channel 5 was available at its launch on 30 March 1997. Its tower now also carries antennas for many broadcasting and private radio organisations. Craigkelly is part of the STV Central TV region, and unlike Black Hill, the variant of STV Central in Craigkelly is the East variant, so there is regional news and commercials for the Edinburgh area. The transmitter was originally an A group but has become a K group (or wideband) with the advent of Channel 5 and Digital. Craigkelly is one of the few main transmitters which did not return to its original group at Digital Switchover (DSO). However, when Craigkelly went through its 700 MHz clearance in October 2018 all of the main 6 muxes returned to the A group, the only two outside being muxes 7 and 8, which were to be switched off between 2020 and 2022. The tower can be clearly seen from many parts of Edinburgh across the Firth of Forth on its prominent position atop the hill known as The Binn. Coverage Television reception from Craigkelly includes a wide area stretching from Stirling and Falkirk in the central belt, eastwards to Crail in Fife and Dunbar in Lothian and southwards to Peebles in Scottish Borders. Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes also receive a strong signal, as does most of the principal city of Edinburgh.

Craigmillar Park Church

Craigmillar Park Church serves Edinburgh's Newington area, in Scotland. It was a congregation of the Church of Scotland until June 23rd, 2024. The church building dates from 1879 and the adjacent hall was added in 1899. Building Although the church is without tower or spire, the building is situated on the busy main north – south route stretching from east end of Princes Street through Newington towards Liberton. Craigmillar Park Church is adjacent to the Royal Blind School, where the minister is Chaplain. Within the garden is a memorial to people from the parish who gave their lives in the First World War. History The building was originally known as Mayfield Parish Church until the Mayfield Free Church (now known as Mayfield Salisbury) rejoined the Church of Scotland. To differentiate between the two churches, North and South were added to the congregation names. The present congregation is the result of a voluntary union of the former Craigmillar Park and Mayfield South congregations in 1966. Worship is currently held in the Mayfield South Building, which adopted the name of the former Craigmillar Park Church. The aforementioned Craigmillar Park Church, originally a Free Church congregation, opened in 1899, before becoming Buchanan House, part of former St. Margaret's School, in 1976. Following the school's closure, it has now become the Iqra Academy (mosque). As of July 2010, there are 266 members of Craigmillar Park Church. On June 11, 2019, the Rev. Alex McAspurren was inducted as minister of both Craigmillar Park Church and Reid Memorial Church, the two churches having been linked by the Presbytery of Edinburgh the previous year. On June 23, 2024, the church held its final service as a Church of Scotland congregation. A new parish, Newington Trinity, was formed with Mayfield Salisbury and Priestfield Churches, with the Mayfield Salisbury building being selected as the continuing place of worship. Organ The organ is a three manual pipe organ dating originally from 1892. The congregation uses Church Hymnary 4th edition, occasionally supplemented by songs and hymns from other resources.

Craigmount High School is a non-denominational secondary school in Edinburgh, Scotland with approximately 1,350 pupils located in the west of Edinburgh, Scotland. It is situated between Corstorphine, East Craigs and Drumbrae and it moved into new premises at the beginning of the 2003 academic year. In April 2016, the new building was closed down by Edinburgh Council due to safety concerns; measures were put in place to continue classes in other premises. The new building reopened as of August 2016 when the building met the minimum safety standards. History The first school premises were built in 1970 on the site of a farm to provide accommodation for increasing numbers of pupils from new housing developments. When the Scotland Japanese School (スコットランド日本語補習授業校 Sukottorando Nihongo Hoshū Jugyō Kō), a weekend Japanese school, opened in 1982, classes were originally held at Craigmount High School. The school classes were moved to Livingston in April 2003. Craigmount's debating teams won the Donald Dewar Debating Tournament several times in the early 2010s. Craigmount’s team were finalists in the 2020 Future Asset Competition New building By the late-1990s the school was catering for more pupils than it was designed for, and the low-quality fabric of the building was deteriorating. In 2003, work began on the new building under a PPP (Public-Private Partnership) scheme which involved selling the existing building and the upper sports pitches to a property developer. The new building was built on the site of the old playing fields. Work was completed on schedule, and staff and pupils moved into the school in August 2003. In April 2016 the school building was closed by Edinburgh City Council as building work carried out under a Public-Private Partnership had been classed as unsafe. School classes were subsequently moved to several other premises across Edinburgh. Seventeen other schools in the Edinburgh area were similarly affected. Classes eventually resumed in the building at the start of the 2016/2017 academic year. Headteachers Colin Meikle (2020–present) Tony O 'Doherty [Acting] (2020) Tom Rae - (2015–2020) Dr John J.

Craigton, Glasgow

Craigton (Scottish Gaelic: Baile Chreig) is a residential suburb in the southwest of the city of Glasgow, Scotland. Located approximately three miles (five kilometres) from the city centre, it is bordered by Bellahouston Park to the south and Halfway to the west, with Cardonald beyond. The area was historically farming land for Govan, which is nearby to the north across the M8 motorway and Inverclyde Line railway tracks. A pedestrian underpass, previously a road on which city trams and buses operated, leads north from Craigton under the motorway onto Craigton Road, which is within the Drumoyne neighbourhood. Historically the Craigton Road area was occupied by Craigton Farm, while the estate of Craigton House was acquired to build the Craigton neighbourhood (developed for housing between the World Wars, as were Drumoyne and other nearby developments like the contrasting Moorepark and Mosspark projects). The area has an eponymous primary school opened in 1910 (once attended by artist George Wyllie), a small industrial estate and a number of shops lining Paisley Road West. Craigton Cemetery is immediately to the west of Craigton and was opened in 1873. The cemetery grounds contain a crematorium, which opened in 1957. To the east is Helen Street police station (a modern replacement for Govan's previous offices in Orkney Street) built on the site of the White City Stadium, used for greyhound racing and motorcycle speedway; Ibrox railway station was slightly further east, also within walking distance of Craigton until its closure in the late 1960s, about the same time as the stadium. The triangular parcel of land between Paisley Road West and Mosspark Boulevard and west of Bellahouston Park has been occupied by housing since the 1920s. It was originally fields belonging to a farm called Wearieston so was occasionally known as such in the years following its construction, but the name has since fallen out of use. Since 2017, Craigton has fallen within the Pollokshields ward under Glasgow City Council, having been in the Govan ward for the decade prior. There was also a ward named Craigton, but the neighbourhood of that name was never part of it, and in 2017 it was re-named to the more accurate title of Cardonald. References
Craigtoun Miniature Railway

The Craigtoun Park Railway is a 15 in (381 mm) gauge railway operating on a circular track around part of the Craigtoun Country Park in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. The gauge employed is usually associated with more extensive railway operations, including public transport services on railways such as the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway in Kent, England. The Craigtoun Park Railway was originally introduced in 1960 as a 7+1⁄4 in (184 mm) gauge railway, but since 1976 it has been a 15 in (381 mm) gauge railway, and now operates on a circuit of approximately 400 yards (366 m), and purely as an attraction for families enjoying a day out in the public park owned by Fife Council and operated by the voluntary group The Friends of Craigtoun. The rolling stock, all built by Severn Lamb, consists of two open and one semi-open toast-rack carriages, with motive power provided by a 2-8-0DH steam-outline locomotive built in 1973, designed to resemble a steam locomotive of the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad.

Cramond Tower

Cramond Tower ist ein Wohnturm aus dem 15. Jahrhundert im Dorf Cramond nordwestlich der schottischen Hauptstadt Edinburgh. Geschichte Die Gegend um den Wohnturm war seit der Römerzeit besiedelt; man findet Überreste aus dieser Zeit in der Gegend. Der Turm wurde vermutlich Ende des 15. oder Anfang des 16. Jahrhunderts errichtet, hauptsächlich als Verteidigungseinrichtung. Er könnte allerdings auch früher entstanden und 1409 erstmals urkundlich erwähnt worden sein. Der Turm war einmal Teil der Sommerresidenz des Bischofs von Dunkeld. 1622 wurde der Cramond Tower das Eigentum von James Inglis, einem Kaufmann aus Edinburgh. Er ließ den Turm umbauen, sodass er besser für Wohnzwecke geeignet war: Er ließ Fenster vergrößern und zusätzliche einbauen und Vorsprünge anbauen, um die Wohnfläche zu vergrößern. Sein Enkel siedelte 1680 ins nahegelegene Cramond House über und der Turm wurde die folgenden 300 Jahre nicht mehr bewohnt. 1837 malte James Skene den Cramond Tower als romantische Ruine und noch Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts war der Turm in einem schlechten Erhaltungszustand. In den 1960er-Jahren ließ die Stadtverwaltung von Edinburgh eine Betonkappe auf das Dach setzen und den Bewuchs entfernen. 1978 kaufte Eric Jamieson, ein Amateurantiquar, den Turm. Von 1979 bis 1981 wurde er von den Architekten Robert Hurd & Partners in ein privates Wohnhaus umgebaut. Im Jahre 2011 wurde der Cramond Tower durch einen Brand beschädigt. Beschreibung Die Burg ist ein fünfstöckiger Wohnturm mit nahezu quadratischem Grundriss von 7,6 Meter × 7,6 Meter und bis zu 1,5 Meter dicken Mauern. In der Südwestecke befindet sich ein rundes Treppenhaus, das aus dem Gebäude hervorsteht. Zurzeit ist das Erdgeschoss als Lager genutzt, das 1. Obergeschoss als Wohnzimmer, das 2. Obergeschoss als Küche und das 3. und 4. Obergeschoss als Schlafzimmer und Bäder. Im Rahmen der Restaurierung wurde der Turm wieder mit einem geneigten Dach versehen. In den 1990er-Jahren wurde an der Ostseite ein steinerner Anbau geschaffen. Historic Scotland hat Cramond Tower als historisches Bauwerk der Kategorie B gelistet. Einzelnachweise Weblinks
Cramond Tower

Cramond Tower is a fifteenth-century tower house in the village of Cramond to the north-west of Edinburgh, Scotland. History The area around the Tower has had a human settlement since the time of Ancient Rome, and there are relics from that time in the area. The Tower was probably built in the late 15th or early 16th century, primarily as a defensive feature, although it could have been built earlier, and may have been mentioned in 1409. It was at one stage part of the bishop of Dunkeld's summer residence. It became the property of James Inglis, an Edinburgh merchant, in 1622. He repurposed the tower to make it more comfortable for occupation, adding and enlarging windows and creating internal recesses to increase the available living space. His grandson moved to the nearby Cramond House in 1680, and the tower was abandoned for the next 300 years. It was portrayed as a romantic ruin by James Skene in 1837, and was in a poor state of preservation by the middle of the twentieth century. In the 1960s, the City of Edinburgh Council put a concrete cap on the roof and cleared the vegetation. In 1978, it was acquired by Eric Jamieson, an amateur antiquarian. Between 1979 and 1981, it was restored by architects Robert Hurd & Partners into a private residence. It was damaged by a fire in 2011. Description The castle is a nearly square four-storey tower house, around 25 feet (7.6 m) on each side and with walls up to 5 feet (1.5 m) thick. In the south-east corner is a round staircase that protrudes from the building. Currently, the tower has a store at ground level, a living room on the first floor, kitchen on the second, and bedrooms and bathrooms on the third and fourth floors. A pitched roof has been re-erected as part of the restoration. In the 1990s, a stone extension was added on the east side. It is a category B listed building. Archaeology Excavations between 1976 & 1981 and 1987 & 1988 found medieval and post-medieval material. They also identified building foundations to the west of the tower which are believed to be the outbuildings identified in the 19th century. Because of its proximity to Cramond Roman Fort some Roman amphorae and mortaria, as well as a defensive ditch for the fort, were also found. References External links
