Lugar Boswell Thistle F.C.

Lugar Boswell Thistle Football Club are a Scottish football club, based in the village of Lugar, near Cumnock, Ayrshire. Members of the Scottish Junior Football Association, they currently play in the West of Scotland League Third Division. Their home ground since 1882 is Rosebank Park, and they wear maroon home strips and light blue away strips. History Formed in 1878 as Lugar Boswell, the club were originally a Senior side playing such currently distinguished names as Rangers and Heart of Midlothian. The club made nine consecutive Scottish Cup appearances in the 1880s and reached the fifth round of the competition in 1882–83, losing to eventual finalists Vale of Leven. In March 1883, they recorded a 10–2 victory over Hearts which remains the Edinburgh club's record defeat. The following season, forward Sam Thomson was capped twice for Scotland. As success faded, the club then flitted between various Senior, Junior and even Juvenile leagues up to the Second World War. On reforming after hostilities, the club added the suffix Thistle and settled in Ayrshire Junior football. The Jaggy Bunnets as they are nicknamed enjoyed a successful period in the 1950s. The club reached the semi-final of the Scottish Junior Cup in 1952, losing to Kilbirnie Ladeside after a replay with one tie attracting a then record attendance of over 30,000 to Rugby Park, Kilmarnock. In 1956, the club made it all the way to the final, with Thistle losing 4–1 to Petershill at Hampden Park in front of a crowd of 64,702. The current population of Lugar is 221. With the club in danger of folding in 2015, Lugar entered a partnership with the Ayr United Football Academy where the SPFL club provided coaching staff and gave Ayr's pro-youth players game time in an adult footballing environment. In March 2016, Lugar announced that this arrangement would not continue beyond the end of the 2015–16 season and the club appointed Derek McMurdo as their new manager in the summer of 2016.

Kloster Glenluce

Das Kloster Glenluce (englisch Glenluce Abbey, schottisch-gälisch Abaid Ghlinn Lus) war eine Zisterzienserabtei in Schottland. Es liegt 1,5 Kilometer nordwestlich des Orts Glenluce in der Council Area Dumfries and Galloway. Die Anlage ist als Scheduled Monument geschützt. Geschichte Das Kloster wurde im Jahr 1192 von Roland, Lord of Galloway, gestiftet. Kloster Glenluce war eine Tochtergründung von Kloster Dundrennan, einer Tochter von Kloster Rievaulx in Yorkshire (England), das wiederum ein Tochterkloster der Primarabtei Clairvaux war. Im Jahr 1235 wurde das Kloster während eines Volksaufstandes beschädigt. Sowohl Robert the Bruce, Jakob IV., als auch Mary, Queen of Scots sollen das Kloster besucht haben. Nach der schottischen Reformation 1560 geriet das Kloster in Verfall. Die Mönche, die den neuen Glauben akzeptierten, durften in der Abtei wohnen bleiben. Der letzte verstarb 1602, womit das Kloster formal aufhörte zu existieren. Die Anlage gehört heute dem National Trust for Scotland und wird von Historic Scotland betreut. „Glenluce“ (anglisiert) oder Gleann Lus (lateinisch Vallis Lucis) bedeutet „Tal des Lichtes“ auf Deutsch. Bauten und Anlage Die Anlage folgte dem üblichen Schema. Die Kirche (Early English) hatte ein Querschiff. Chor und Teile des Südquerschiffs sind ruinös erhalten. Die Klausur liegt südlich der Klosterkirche. Der gewölbte Kapitelsaal mit einer zentralen Säule wurde 1470 errichtet. Ein Teil des Kreuzgangs wurde wiedererrichtet.

Glenluce Abbey

Glenluce Abbey, near to Glenluce, Scotland, was a Cistercian monastery called also Abbey of Luce or Vallis Lucis and founded around 1190 by Rolland or Lochlann, Lord of Galloway and Constable of Scotland. Following the Scottish Reformation in 1560, the abbey fell into disuse. Ballinclach On 23 January 1497, James IV erected "Ballinclach in Glenluce" into a burgh of barony in favour of the abbey, although there is no record of the burgh operating. Glenluce and the Kennedy family In 1560, after the Scottish Reformation, John Gordon of Lochinvar took possession of Glenluce Abbey. His servant Cuthbert Kirkpatrick refused entry to the abbot, Thomas Hay. Lochinvar removed himself and his servants in November 1561, and gave the key to Gilbert Kennedy, 4th Earl of Cassilis. Gilbert Kennedy, 4th Earl of Cassilis persuaded one of the monks of the abbey to counterfeit the necessary signatures to a deed conveying the lands of the abbey to him and his heirs. To ensure that the forgery was not discovered he employed a man to murder the monk and then persuaded his uncle, the laird of Bargany, to hang his paid assassin on a trumped up charge of theft. The success of these actions encouraged him to obtain the lands of Crossraguel Abbey through the torturing of Allan Stewart, the commendator at his castle of Dunure. Mary, Queen of Scots stayed at Glenluce on 9 August 1563. In March 1587 the king's tutor Peter Young tried to find manuscripts of Caesar's Commentary and a Greek "Hegisippus" that the last Abbot of Glenluce had promised to him. The ruins were consolidated and partly restored in 1898 by the Glasgow architect, Peter MacGregor Chalmers. They are a scheduled monument.

Opatija Glenluce

Opatija Glenluce (angleško Glenluce Abbey) je cistercijanski samostan blizu Glenluca, Škotska. Ustanovil jo je okoli leta 1190 Lochlann, Lord Gallowayski. Po škotski reformaciji leta 1560 se opatije ni več uporabljalo. Glenluce in družina Kennedy Gilbert, Earl Cassillisa je pod vladavino Kraljice Marije prejel Glenluce v svojo oblast. Earl je prepričal enega od menihov opatije, da ponaredi potrebne podpise za pogodbo, s katero je zemljo opatije prenesel nase in na svoje dediče. Da bi zagotovil, da sleparija ni bila razkrita, je zaposlil moža, ki je meniha umoril, in nato prepričal svojega strica, posestnika v Barganyju, da obesi plačanca zaradi izmišljene krivde tatvine. Uspeh teh dejanj ga je opogumil, da si je preko mučenja Allana Stewarta, zaupnika na njegovem gradu Dunure, pridobil še zemljo Opatije Crossraguel.

Luncarty F.C.

Luncarty Junior Football Club are a Scottish football club based in the village of Luncarty, near Perth, Perth and Kinross. Their home ground is Brownlands Park and the club competes in the East of Scotland League Second Division. History They were formed in 1886 by employees of a local bleachworks and after some years in local Senior football, joined the Junior grade in 1921. Up until the end of the 2005–06 season, they played in Tayside Division One in the Scottish Junior Football Association's East Region, and they finished second in the division's final season. This would have seen them promoted into the Tayside Premier League but the SJFA restructured prior to the 2006–07 season, and the Bleachers found themselves in the twelve-team East Region, Central Division. They finished sixth in their first season in the division. Luncarty played in its first major cup final for 25 years in May 2014, reaching the GA Engineering Cup Final, played at Tannadice Stadium. The Bleachers lost out on penalties to Lochee United after the match finished 1–1. They spent a year in abeyance during the 2015–16 season but returned to competitive action in 2016–17 with a new management team of Jon Kelly and Richie Montgomery. 29 January 2020, Jonny Kelly stepped down as manager of the club after four years. One of their local rivals was Bankfoot Athletic, but the club based a few miles to the north folded in 2014. Four years later, two other rivals from the city of Perth, Jeanfield Swifts and Kinnoull left the Junior setup to join the East of Scotland Football League within the senior pyramid, a move Luncarty themselves made in 2020. The club won the Alex Jack Cup and Cup Winners Shield in the 2022–23 season, to qualify for the 2023–24 Scottish Cup – they won their opening three rounds against opponents from as far afield as Fortrose and Newton Stewart before being eliminated by Bo'ness United of the Lowland League.

Luss Parish Church

Luss Parish Church is a Church of Scotland church in Luss, Argyll and Bute, dedicated to Saint Kessog. The present church building was constructed in 1875 and underwent major restoration works in 2001. The building became notable during the 1980s as the parish church of the fictional village of Glendarroch in the popular television series Take the High Road. The church site has had 1,500 years of continuous Christian presence, being founded by Saint Kessog, and has fifteen listed ancient monuments in its graveyard. The church has in recent times embraced the internet, broadcasting its services online and inviting, in exception to usual Church practice, outsiders to take advantage of the picturesque location on the banks of Loch Lomond for weddings, of which 153 were held in 2009. Notable weddings to have been held at the church include that of Kirsty Hume to Donovan Leitch, Noel Edmonds to Helen Soby and Sarah Heaney to Ed Adams. The church is a significant site for religious tourism, with over 2,000 people visiting the church on busy summer days, contributing £5 million per annum to the local economy. It is estimated to receive 750,000 visitors a year, in a parish with a population of only 400. The church celebrated 1,500 years of worship in 2010 by opening a new visitors centre for Luss after the National Parks Authority sold its building to Purdies, a Scottish natural soap producer, and a community bid to retain the centre had failed. Personality From 1998 to 2013, the minister was Reverend Dane Sherrard. Sherrard had previously been minister in Buckhaven, Fife, between 1977 and 1994, establishing in 1983 the Buckhaven Parish Church Agency, a government-backed jobs and training programme that went into liquidation in 1991. Sherrard then went to Cadder Parish Church in Bishopbriggs. References
Kingsbarns (destilleri)

Kingsbarns destilleri er et skotsk whisky- og gindestilleri beliggende i Kingsbarns, Fife i Lowlands-whiskyregionen i Skotland. Destilleriet blev grundlagt i 2014 af Douglas Clement og ejes af Wemyss Malts. Destilleriet har en kapacitet på 200.000 liter råsprit om året. Historie Douglas Clement, tidligere golfcaddie, blev inspireret til at åbne et destilleri nær de berømte golfbaner i området omkring St Andrews og Kingsbarns, efter at besøgende golfspillere havde udtrykt frustration over manglen på et nærliggende destilleri. Efter at have modtaget et tilskud på £670.000 fra den skotske regering lykkedes det ham at overbevise familien Wemyss om at investere mellem £2,5 og £3 millioner. Kingsbarns destilleri åbnede officielt i november 2014, og de første fade blev fyldt i 2015. I 2017 åbnede virksomheden et gindestilleri på området efter at have ombygget et forladt landhus og begyndte at producere Darnley’s Gin i Kingsbarns. Ginkedlerne blev importeret fra Italien. Der blev også lanceret en besøgsoplevelse for gin, kaldet Darnley’s Gin School. Kernesortimentet af gin omfattede tre varianter: Original, Spiced og Navy Strength; genanvendelige refill-poser blev lanceret for alle tre varianter i 2022. I august 2018 præsenterede Kingsbarns destilleri sin første skotsk single malt whisky. I november lancerede destilleriet herefter “Balcomie”, en single malt whisky lagret på sherryfade. I november 2022 annoncerede Wemyss-selskabet udvidelsesplaner for destilleriet med opførelsen af tolv spirituslagre til modning af whisky samt et tappeanlæg. I december 2022 annoncerede destilleriet planer om at træde ind på det amerikanske marked. Referencer

MacLellan’s Castle

MacLellan’s Castle, auch MacLellan’s House oder Kirkcudbright Castle, ist ein Tower House in der schottischen Stadt Kirkcudbright in der Council Area Dumfries and Galloway. Die Anlage ist als Scheduled Monument klassifiziert. Geschichte Unter König Jakob II. entstand auf dem Grund 1449 ein Kloster des Franziskanerordens. Im Zuge der Reformation im 16. Jahrhundert wurde die Anlage aufgegeben und säkularisiert. Thomas MacLellan of Bombie, ein einflussreicher Regionalpolitiker und Provost von Kirkcudbright, ließ am Standort in den 1580er Jahren MacLellan’s Castle erbauen. 1582 waren die Arbeiten so weit fortgeschritten, dass er zusammen mit seiner zweiten Ehefrau das Gebäude bezog. 1587 unterhielt MacLellan dort den schottischen König Jakob VI. Nach Thomas MacLellans Ableben 1597 gingen seine Besitztümer an seinen gleichnamigen Sohn über. Infolge ihrer Beteiligung an der Ulster Plantation und später der Jakobitenaufstände verarmte die Familie und das Tower House verfiel angeblich um 1752 zu einer Ruine. Um diese Zeit ging das Gebäude an Robert Maxwell of Orchardton über. 1782 erwarb Dunbar Douglas, 4. Earl of Selkirk MacLellan’s Castle. 1912 ging die Ruine in Staatsbesitz über und wird von Historic Scotland betreut. Beschreibung Das Tower House befindet sich im Zentrum Kirkcudbrights an der Kreuzung zwischen Castle Street und St Cuthbert Street nahe den Hafenanlagen am Dee. MacLellan’s Castle weist einen L-förmigen Grundriss auf. Das Mauerwerk des drei- bis vierstöckigen Wehrturms besteht aus Bruchstein mit Details aus Naturstein. Die Fenster sind unregelmäßig angeordnet. An den Kanten kragen verschiedentlich Ecktourellen mit Schießscharten aus. Die nicht erhaltenen abschließenden Satteldächer sind mit Staffelgiebel gestaltet. Im Innenwinkel an der Südostseite tritt ein bis auf Höhe des zweiten Obergeschosses reichender Treppenturm hervor. Eine innenliegende Wendeltreppe führt weiter in das dritte Obergeschoss. Oberhalb des Eingangsportals mit gekehltem Architrav sind Tafeln eingelassen. Neben einer großen blinden Fläche, die vermutlich einst das königlich schottische Wappen zeigte, sind die Wappen der Lords Maxwell und Herries zu sehen. Des Weiteren die Initialen GM von Dame Grissel Maxwell und das Baujahr 1582. Die Architektur von MacLellan’s Castle zeigt den Übergang von klassischen Wehrtürmen zu bewehrten Sitzen des niederen Adels mit einem gewissen Wohnkomfort. Zwar wurde bei MacLellan’s Castle nicht auf Bewehrung verzichtet, diese aber zugunsten des Komforts auf ein Minimum reduziert.

Machrihanish Golf Club

The Machrihanish Golf Club is a classic Scottish links course situated in Machrihanish north of the Mull of Kintyre. The main course, with views of the western seaboard including the Paps of Jura and Ireland, was ranked the No. 39 course outside of the United States by Golf Digest in 2005. In particular, the first hole is often rated as one of the best opening holes in the world. Jack Nicklaus has cited the 1st at Machrihanish as the top opening hole in the world. The golf club was founded in 1876 as the Kintyre Golf Club. The course had ten holes before the club officially existed, and was quickly expanded to 12. In 1879, Old Tom Morris was brought in to redesign and expand the course to the full 18 holes, including today's first hole. J.H. Taylor made some modifications in 1914, and in the 1940s Sir Guy Campbell brought the course to its current configuration. The club is ranked #57 in Golf Digest's World's 100 Greatest Golf Courses 2015 list. The club also has a shorter 9-hole golf course, and separate men's and women's clubhouses. It has hosted the Scottish Ladies Championship on several occasions. The clubhouse, which provided a bar and restaurant, both of which were open to the public, was completely destroyed in a fire in December 2018.
