Carriden House

Carriden House is a 14,041 square feet (1,304.5 m2) mansion in the parish of Bo'ness and Carriden, in the Falkirk council area, east central Scotland. It is located on the Antonine Wall 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) east of Bo'ness, and 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) northeast of Linlithgow, in the former county of West Lothian. The earliest part of the house is an early 17th-century tower house, which was extended in the 17th and 19th centuries. Carriden House is protected as a category A listed building. Etymology of name Carriden is etymologically a Cumbric name. The first element is agreed to be *kair 'fortification'. The second element is more doubtful, but seems fairly likely to be the same regional name Eidyn that also appears in Edinburgh. History Carriden House is located west of the site of an Antonine Roman fort. This formed the eastern end of the Antonine Wall. It is the only Antonine Fort whose Latin name, Veluniate, is known. A centurion's stone was reported as built into the house, according to Sir George Macdonald who wrote about it. Finds from the fort include some window fragments. One suggested interpretation is that Carriden formed a chain of Lothian forts along with Cramond and Inveresk. A tower probably stood on this site in the 16th century, and this was rebuilt or replaced in 1602 by John Hamilton of Lettrick. The tower was purchased later in the 17th century by the Mylne family, a prominent dynasty of masons and architects, and a west wing was added by Alexander Mylne. During the 18th century the house had many owners, and landscaping works were carried out in the grounds. In 1814, the house was bought by Admiral Sir George Johnstone Hope (1767–1818), a veteran naval officer. His son Sir James Hope (1808–1881) made further alterations to the building, and also established the estate village of Muirhouses. The estate changed hands several more times, and by the 1970s was owned by the South of Scotland Electricity Board. Demolition was contemplated, to allow the building of a new power station on the site. This proposal was rejected and the house fell into disrepair. It the latter part of the 20th century the house was purchased from the SSEB by the Barkhouse family and restored as a private residence. The house has since undergone further renovation and modernisation, and continues to be a private family residence. Description The house is on an L-plan, and comprises the original tower house and the 17th-century wing. The tower house, dated 1602, is of three storeys and was remodelled in the 19th century. The two-storey wing added by Alexander Mylne is to the west, and bears a 1682 date stone. The study on the first floor has a 17th-century plaster ceiling described as "particularly exceptional". The porch in the angle of the L is also a 19th-century addition. References External links West Lothian Archaeology

Carronvale House

Carronvale House is a category A listed country house in Larbert, Stirlingshire, Scotland. It is a large two-storey house with neo-Georgian details. Its outer walls date from the 18th century, with two new wings added in the 1820s, and it was extensively remodelled in 1897 by architect Sir John Burnet. It is home to the Boys' Brigade Scottish Headquarters, and is used as a training, conference and activity centre. The house is also utilised by health & local authorities, churches, charities, hospices, schools, other youth organisations and private groups. History The name was originally Broomage or Brumeinche, meaning broom meadow or links. In 1452, King James II gave the lands to James Rutherford for faithful service. In 1476 they belonged to James, Lord Livingston, who had probably bought them. A century later they were sold to John, Lord Thirlestane. In 1644, they passed to John Burne, The land was sold in 1715 by Lodovick Callander (alias Willison of Dorrator) to Alex Brown. Mr Duncan Robertson of Roehill, Perthshire, bought the estate in 1819. From this time the name of Carronvale was adopted. Dr Robertson planted trees, laid out a new drive and built a lodge. He also added two wings to the old house and lined the rooms with mahogany grown on his Jamaican estate. He died in 1824, leaving Carronvale to his eldest son, also Duncan, who had a commission in the Indian Army, where he met his future wife Miss Ogilvie, niece of the then Earl of Airlie. On the death of Duncan Robertson (the second) in 1856, the estate was sold to John Bell Sherriff. Upon his death in 1896, his son George inherited the estate and made extensive alterations to the house, but preserved the original structure. When George Sherriff died in 1908, one of his sons, Alick, inherited Carronvale. During the First World War, officers of the 8th Scottish Rifles were billeted in the stables of the estate. During the Second World War the house was used for record storage by the Prudential Insurance Company. It was sold to the Boys' Brigade in 1945 and it was officially opened for training on 14 June 1947 by Lord Home, the then Brigade President. It has been in constant use ever since as the National Training Centre for Scotland, with many Officers, Leaders and Boys attending courses and conferences annually. Lord Steel MSP opened the Recreation Centre on 6 May 2000. After the roof was refurbished in 2003 and ensuite facilities added to most of the bedrooms, a service of rededication was held in April 2004. References
Carrubbers Christian Centre

Carrubbers Christian Centre is a church on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, Scotland. History Carrubbers Close Mission was founded in 1858 and its 'workers' originally met in a former Atheist Meeting House in Carrubbers Close. The Rev. James Gall (1808–1895) was the founder of the Mission. In 1883 the American evangelist Dwight L. Moody came to Edinburgh. He was accompanied by Ira D. Sankey who sang his self-composed songs while Moody preached. During their visit, they managed to raise £10,000 to pay for a permanent home for the mission and later that year, the foundation stone was laid. The building was designed by the Edinburgh architect, John Armstrong. As a mission rather than a church, Carrubbers has supported other Edinburgh churches in teaching and outreach. Run by a board of directors representing other churches of various denominations throughout the city, Carrubbers has concentrated through most of its history on evangelism, Bible teaching and alleviating suffering amongst the poor, the ill and those prone to addiction. Saturday night rallies have been a feature of the Carrubbers ministry and the Free Breakfast for the homeless every Sunday morning of the year is still a feature of Carrubbers life. Carrubbers is a registered charity doing work both to advance their evangelistic endeavours and support the local community. Carrubbers transformed In the 1980s, with large scale rallies becoming culturally less popular, and with an ageing building, the directors decided to refurbish the fabric of the building. The project was named, "Carrubbers into the nineties." In 1990, work began and a floor was inserted at balcony level. This created an inviting main hall capable of seating 350 people. In the new basement, a café was built along with lower halls and office space. Upstairs from the main hall are further halls and office space along with a library and a private flat. The focus moved to building a small congregation as an independent, non-denominational church. Carrubbers main meetings are now on Sundays at 10.30am and 7:00pm with a range of over 30 different activities and ministries including home groups on the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month, with church prayer meetings on other Tuesdays. Carrubbers Christian Centre attracts many students and young people and is known for its expository Bible preaching and a range of courses to train and equip Christians. In addition, many find faith in Jesus through contact with its members or through its courses for enquirers or outreach enterprises. References External links Carrubbers Christian Centre website

Den Entwurf im tudorgotischen Stil lieferte der schottische Architekt William Burn. Außengebäude In den umgebenden Parkanlagen findet sich ein Mausoleum. Es wurde 1784 erbaut und ist somit älter als Carstairs House. Der Kuppelbau trägt die Inschrift „Sibi et Suis extrui curavit cruilielmus Fullerton de carestairs AD 1784“. Die die nördliche Zufahrt zu Carstairs House flankierende Lodge ist analog dem Herrenhaus tudorgotisch ausgestaltet. Der ehemalige Gutshof wurde 1825 nach einem Entwurf von Burn erbaut. Ursprünglich bestand er aus vier Gebäuden, die einen quadratischen Innenhof umgaben. Vorgelagert war das Bauernhaus. Das westliche Gebäude wurde zwischenzeitlich abgebrochen.

Castlecary Castle

Castlecary Castle ist ein Tower House nahe der schottischen Ortschaft Castlecary in der Council Area Falkirk. 1972 wurde das Bauwerk in die schottischen Denkmallisten in der höchsten Kategorie A aufgenommen. Geschichte Es existieren Vermutungen, dass sich am Standort von Castlecary Castle bereits Ende des 13. Jahrhunderts eine Festung oder Motte befand. In der zweiten Hälfte des 15. Jahrhunderts gelangten die Ländereien in den Besitz eines Henry Livingston of Middilbyning, welcher die Burg um 1485 errichten ließ. In der Urkunde aus dem Jahre 1491, als die Ländereien in den Besitz seines Sohnes Patrick übergingen, ist das Tower House als Neubau aufgeführt. Patrick war die Person, welche die Herkunftsbezeichnung „of Castlecary“ benutzte. Die Ländereien wurden über Generationen innerhalb der Familie vererbt. Die Linie starb mit Harry Livingston of Castlecary im Jahre 1657 aus und die Ländereien gingen in den Besitz der Familie Baillie über. Im frühen 18. Jahrhundert erhielt James Dundas Castlecary Castle durch Heirat. Beschreibung Castlecary Castle liegt an der Westgrenze von Falkirk südwestlich der Ortschaft Castlecary, die bereits zu North Lanarkshire gehört. Wahrscheinlich sollte es ursprünglich einen L-förmigen Grundriss erhalten, die Arbeiten wurden jedoch nicht ausgeführt. Im Laufe des 17. Jahrhunderts wurde das Bauwerk erweitert. Eine Datumsangabe oberhalb des Eingangs weist das Jahr 1679 aus. Einzelnachweise Weblinks Eintrag zu Castlecary Castle auf trove.scot, der Datenbank von Historic Environment Scotland (englisch)

Castle Forbes is a 19th-century country house in the Scots Baronial style near Alford in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. History The 6,000-acre (2,400-hectare) Vale of Alford estate is the seat of the Lord Forbes. The lands were granted to Sir Alexander Forbes in 1411 for his part in the defeat of Donald of the Isles at the Battle of Harlaw. An earlier house on the site was named Putachie. The present building overlooking the River Don was built in 1815 by the 17th Lord Forbes, to designs by the architect Archibald Simpson. However, after Simpson encountered structural problems and the original section of the house (from c. 1731) began to crack, Simpson was dismissed and the work was completed by the City Architect of Aberdeen, John Smith. Today it is occupied by Malcolm Forbes, 23rd Lord Forbes and is open to residential guests. The estate offers fishing and golf. In 1996, a former dairy building was converted into a small perfumery.

Castle Kennedy

Castle Kennedy (skotskou gaelštinou Caisteal nan Ceanadach) je vesnice ve správní oblasti Dumfries a Galloway, v hrabství Wigtownshire ve |Skotsku. Leží přibližně šest kilometrů východně od Stranraeru. Leží na silnici A75 a spadá do farnosti Inch. Vesnice leží jižně od zámeckého panství Lochinch, jehož součástí je zřícenina hradu Kennedy ze 17. století a také zahrady Castle Kennedy Gardens, které jsou přístupné veřejnosti. Historie Název obce je odvozen od hradu Kennedy, který leží severně od něj. John Kennedy, 5. hrabě z Cassilis, jej nechal postavit v roce 1607 na místě starší opevněné budovy. V roce 1716 hrad vyhořel a dostal se do majetku hrabat ze Stair. Poté, co nebyl obnoven, nechal John Dalrymple, 10. hrabě ze Stair, v roce 1864 postavit zámek Lochinch Castle, který je sídlem hrabat ze Stair dodnes. V roce 1941 bylo východně od Castle Kennedy vybudováno vojenské letiště. Sloužila mimo jiné jako výcvikové místo pro taktiku boje proti ponorkám. Od té doby však bylo zařízení opuštěno. Při sčítání lidu v roce 1991 bylo v Castle Kennedy napočítáno 400 obyvatel. Obec má vlastní základní školu s počtem 38 žáků. Doprava Castle Kennedy leží přímo na hlavní silnici A75 spojující Stranraer s Gretna Green. Silnice A751 také umožňuje přístup k dálnici A77, která spojuje Portpatrick s Glasgowem, vzdáleným několik kilometrů na západ. Pro rozvoj obce byla významná výstavba Portpatrickské a Wigtownshirské společné železnice (Portpatrick and Wigtownshire Joint Railway), na níž Castle Kennedy měla vlastní železniční stanici. Nádraží, otevřené v roce 1861, bylo uzavřeno v roce 1965 se zrušením železnice. Z nádražní budovy je dnes dům a nejbližší železniční stanice je ve Stranraeru. Z Cairnryanu na severu jezdí trajekty do Larne v Severním Irsku a do Belfastu. Odkazy Reference V tomto článku byl použit překlad textu z článku Castle Kennedy na německé Wikipedii.
