Southern Necropolis

The Southern Necropolis is a cemetery in the Gorbals district of southern Glasgow, Scotland. It was opened in the year 1840 to provide an affordable and respectable place of burial for the people of Gorbals and the surrounding areas of the city of Glasgow. Over 250,000 individuals have been buried within the many lairs. History The cemetery was established in response to the crowded state of the Old Gorbals Burial Ground, on Rutherglen Road. Proposals for a new cemetery were put forward in 1839, and the following year land was purchased from William Gilmour of Oatlands. The first burial, that of a 16-month-old child, took place on 21 July 1840. There are three sections to the cemetery: Central opened in 1840; Eastern opened in 1846; and the larger Western section opened in 1850. The entrance to the cemetery is at Caledonia Road, via the grand gatehouse which was built in 1848 to designs by the Glasgow architect Charles Wilson. In 1954 the cemetery played host to a large group of child "vampire hunters" searching for the purported "Gorbals Vampire". The incident, sparked by an urban myth that a vampire had killed two local children, was blamed on American horror comics such as Tales from the Crypt, despite none of the comics referring to the creature in question, and the ensuing moral panic led to an increase in comic censorship. In 2016, a mural which features the vampire and a brief line describing the 1950s event was created by Ella Bryson and Art Pistol. It is located in an archway on St Luke's Place, not far from Glasgow's Citizen Theatre in the Gorbals. The Southern Necropolis was taken over by the Glasgow Corporation in 1952, and is now operated by Glasgow City Council. The cemetery is protected as a Category B listed building, while the gate lodge is listed at Category A.

Soutra Aisle

Soutra Aisle, (the present structure lies just within the boundary of the Scottish Borders from Midlothian) not far from Fala, is the remains of the House of the Holy Trinity, a church that was part of a complex comprising a hospital and a friary. It lies half a mile along the B6368 from its junction with the A68. History The complex was founded by Malcolm IV in 1164, when he granted it the lands of Brotherstanes up to and including the lands of Lyndean. It was built close to the Via Regia, the main route from the North to the Borders Abbeys; it was known as the House of the Holy Trinity and was run by an Augustinian Order. The Great Seal of Scotland mentions Thomas Lauder (later Bishop of Dunkeld) as Master of the Hospital of Soutra on 26 February 1439 (no. 226) and 20 May 1444 (no. 298). A Supplication to Rome dated 7 October 1444 states that he "had been Rector of the church or House of the Holy Trinity of Soltre, Diocese of Saint Andrews, for over seven years". In the supplication dated 7 October 1444 the whole status of the foundation and the purpose of the hospital is discussed, where it is stated that it was "the founders intention to found there a hospital for the reception of the poor rather than a religious place". Its description of the site says: "the church is built at the top of a hill near a public way where there often fierce winds and frequent cold spells". Following a scandal involving Stephen Fleming, the master of the hospital, the Crown confiscated most of the estates which had supported the hospital in the 1460s. These estates were granted to Trinity College Hospital in Edinburgh. This left Soutra Aisle impoverished and it only survived because it became the burial place of the Pringle family in 1686. Recent archaeological works have revealed evidence of rare seeds ("medicinal products from all over the known world"), used for medicinal treatment. The experts found little above-ground evidence of the hospital because its stones had been removed long ago. Dr Brian Moffat, who led the investigation, estimated in 1993 that the peak years for the hospital were "from around the middle of the 12th century to perhaps the middle of the 15th" with perhaps 300 people residing there to deal with visitors and patients.

Elder Park, Govan

Elder Park is a public park in the Govan area of Glasgow, Scotland, located a short distance south of the River Clyde, to the east of the Linthouse neighbourhood. It contains Elder Park Library, a boating pond, the original Fairfield farmhouse, and Linthouse Mansion portico. History The park was given to the people of Govan in 1885 by Isabella Elder, in memory of her husband, the shipbuilding magnate John Elder. It was created on the site of Fairfield farm, the farmhouse of which still stands. The headquarters of the family's Fairfield Shipbuilding and Engineering Company were directly opposite the park to the north on Govan Road – the buildings still exist as the Fairfield Heritage Centre. Elder gifted the park for "healthful recreation by music and amusement". The park's sandstone entrance gates were refurbished during 2021, with a small ceremony taking place at the conclusion of the project in February 2022. Buildings Elder Park Library lies at the south-eastern end of the park, on Langlands Road. It was opened in September 1903 by Andrew Carnegie, gifted to the people of Glasgow by Isabella Elder, and designed by John James Burnett. It is a Category A listed building. The Linthouse Mansion was built in 1791, however the only remaining part of the house now is the portico. Statues and memorials There are two statues within the park, one to Isabella Elder (Sir J. E. Boehm, 1906, Category A listed), and one to her husband John Elder (Archibald Shannan, 1888, Category B listed). There are also two memorials, commemorating the SS Daphne disaster in 1883 and the HMS K13 submarine disaster in 1917, both of which involved the death of local shipyard workers (from Stephens and Fairfields respectively).

Auchentoshan

Auchentoshan er et destilleri i Dalmuir, Skotland, som fremstiller whisky og ligger i området Lowlands, hvor man traditionelt har anvendt den tredobbelte destillationsmetode. Auchentoshan blev grundlagt i 1823. Det har fået tilnavnet "Glasgow's Malt Whisky", på grund af beliggenheden nær Glasgow og den 21 år gamle variant omtales som "the breakfast whisky" på grund af dens sødme. Auchentoshan ligger ved foden af Kilpatrick Hills nær Clydebank i West Dunbartonshire. I 2025 er det et af blot 23 malt whisky distillerier i Lowland. Suntory investerede i Morrison Bowmore i 1989 og overtog hele denne virksomhed inklusiv Auchentoshan distilleryet I maj 2014 etablerede moderselskabet Suntory Global Spirits, som nu er ejer af Auchentoshan og de øvrige Morrison Bowmore holdings.

Auchentoshan

Auchentoshan est une distillerie de whisky des Lowlands située à Dalmuir dans le Dunbartonshire en Écosse. C’est une des dernières distilleries des Lowlands encore en activité. Située à proximité de Glasgow sur les contreforts des Old Kilpatrick Hills, elle a été fondée en 1823 par John Bulloch sous le nom de Duntocher. Après la faillite de son fondateur, elle est rachetée en 1834 par John Flart et Alexander Filshie. Ils modifient son nom en Auchentoshan ce qui signifie en gaélique écossais « le coin du pré ». Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, en 1941, la distillerie est pratiquement totalement détruite par un bombardement allemand. Après avoir changé plusieurs fois de propriétaires, elle est rachetée et agrandie par Morrisson Bowmore Distillers Ltd en 1974. Enfin, en 1994, elle est rachetée par ses propriétaires actuels, les japonais de Suntory. Auchentoshan pratique, comme les Irlandais, une triple distillation avec trois alambics 1 wash still, 1 low wines still, 1 spirit still. Les whiskies La majeure partie de la production d’Auchentoshan est vendue à des embouteilleurs d’assemblages. La distillerie commercialise aussi son propre blend : le Rob Roy. Le single malt d’Auchentoshan est marqué par de très fortes notes florales dont l’origine est directement liée à l’usage de levures lors de la fermentation de l’orge.

Auchentoshan

Destylarnia Auchentoshan leży na północny zachód od Glasgow na przedmieściach Clydebank w hrabstwie Dumbartonshire w Szkocji. Założona w roku 1817 przez Johna Bullocha (licencje uzyskała w 1823 roku) początkowo nosiła nazwę Duntocher Distillery. Dopiero w roku 1970 po przejęciu zakładu przez nowego właściciela Eddiego Cairnsa zaczęła odnosić sukcesy rynkowe, jako pierwszy single malt z regionu Lowlands. W 1984 roku Auchentoshan zakupiła firma Stanley P. Morrison Co., później przekształcona w Morrison Bowmore Distillery. Auchentoshan jest pierwszym butelkowanym single maltem z regionu Lowlands. Obecnie whisky tam produkowana jest poddawana potrójnej destylacji – jako jedyna stosująca tę metodę. Dzięki temu whisky staje się bardzo delikatna i pełna kwiatowych aromatów. Ponieważ klimat w Lowlands jest o wiele łagodniejszy niż w pozostałej części Szkocji, whisky tam produkowane potrzebują mniej czasu, aby w pełni dojrzeć. Na łagodny charakter whisky wpływa to, że Auchentoshan nie używa torfu do suszenia słodu.

Aquhorthies stone circle

Aquhorthies is a Neolithic stone circle near Portlethen in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The site is composed of a ring cairn and a recumbent stone circle which unusually has two rings. It stands one field away from Auld Bourtreebush stone circle, near to the Causey Mounth. It is a scheduled monument. Recumbent stone circles A recumbent stone circle is a type of stone circle constructed in the early Bronze Age. The identifying feature is that the largest stone (the recumbent) is always laid horizontally, with its long axis generally aligned with the perimeter of the ring between the south and southwest. A flanker stone stands each side of the recumbent and these are typically the tallest stones in the circle, with the smallest being situated on the northeastern aspect. The rest of the circle is usually composed of between six and ten orthostats graded by size. The builders tended to select a site which was on a level spur of a hill with excellent views to other landmarks. Over seventy of these circles are found in lowland Aberdeenshire in northeast Scotland – the most similar monuments are the axial stone circles of southwest Ireland. Recumbent stone circles generally enclosed a low ring cairn, though over the millennia these have often disappeared. They may have been a development from the Clava cairns found nearby in Inverness-shire and axial stone circles may have followed the design. Whilst cremated remains have been found at some sites, the precise function of these circles is not known. Description The Aquhorthies stone circle is thought to have consisted of two stone circles and a ring cairn, set on a platform. It currently has fourteen remaining orthostats, two being stumps, and originally had at least 18. The cairn has been damaged with only the kerb still intact. The recumbent stone is 2.75 m wide and 1.4 m tall. It is missing one of its flankers. Atypically, there is a forecourt in front of the recumbent. It was made a scheduled monument in 1925. Visits and excavations The antiquarian James Garden visited in 1692 on the insistence of John Aubrey but his report confuses the site with the Auld Bourtreebush stone circle in the next field. Aquhorthies was drawn in the 1820s by James Skene and James Logan. It was excavated in 1858 by James Dyce Nicol, Charles Dalrymple, James Nicolson, Captain James Burnett, the Reverend Harry Stuart and Alexander Thomson. The cairn had already been plundered and they discovered some burnt bone fragments and pottery sherds. In the late nineteenth century the circle was visited by among others William Collings Lukis, Christian Maclagan, Robert Angus Smith, William Tomkin and Frederick Coles. Alexander Keiller noted in 1934 that there was an atypical number of stones and that their heights alternated. Alexander Thom surveyed the site in 1955 and Clive Ruggles checked for archaeoastrological alignments in 1981. A geological survey was carried out in 2006. References External links Canmore

Auchroisk

Auchroisk er et skotsk whisky-destilleri i Banffshire, i whiskyområdet Speyside, Skotland. Det blev grundlagt i 1972. Historie Det blev etableret efter, at Dorie’s Well blev opdaget og fundet at have vand med lignende egenskaber som det, der anvendes ved Glen Spey-destilleriet, som Justerini & Brooks (J&B) brugte til at producere maltwhisky til deres blends. Vandet fra kilden blev anvendt til at fremstille en testbatch whisky på Glen Spey-destilleriet og blev godkendt, hvilket førte til opførelsen af Auchroisk ved kilden i 1972 med henblik på at producere whisky til J&B-blendet. Produktionen begyndte i 1974. Kort efter blev J&B en del af Grand Metropolitan. Destilleriet producerede sin første single malt i 1978. Single malten blev omdøbt til “The Singleton” i 1986, da navnet “Auchroisk” blev opfattet som for vanskeligt for forbrugere uden for Skotland. Navnet blev ændret tilbage til Auchroisk i 2001, da aftapningen blev udgivet som “Auchroisk 10 Year Old Flora & Fauna” i Diageos Flora & Fauna-serie. I 2008 blev navnet igen ændret, denne gang til “The Singleton of Auchroisk”. I 1997 blev Grand Metropolitan fusioneret med Guinness og dannede Diageo, som i dag ejer Auchroisk. Destilleriet anvendes som et knudepunkt for sammenstikning af Auchroisk med de highland-whiskyer, der indgår i J&B, før de sendes videre til lagring og aftapning. Auchroisk, destilleriets navn, betyder på gælisk “lavvandet vadested over den røde bæk” og henviser til den nærliggende Mulben Burn. Referencer Eksterne henvisninger
