Cultybraggan Camp

Das Cultybraggan Camp ist ein ehemaliges Kriegsgefangenenlager und späteres militärisches Ausbildungslager nahe der schottischen Ortschaft Comrie in der Council Area Perth and Kinross. 2006 wurden die Baracken 19, 20 sowie 44–46 in die schottischen Denkmallisten in der höchste Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen. Weitere Baracken sind außerdem als Ensemble als Kategorie-B-Bauwerke geschützt. Des Weiteren bilden beide Einzeldenkmäler zusammen ein Denkmalensemble der Kategorie A. Geschichte Das Cultybraggan wurde um 1941 als Kriegsgefangenenlager für Gefangene des Zweiten Weltkriegs eingerichtet. Im September 1941 waren die Arbeiten noch nicht abgeschlossen. Mit einer Kapazität von 4500 Insassen ursprünglich für italienische Kriegsgefangene vorgesehen, wurde es wohl nie zu diesem Zwecke verwendet. Stattdessen diente es zunächst als Durchgangslager für deutsche Kriegsgefangene. Im Mai 1944 waren dort 785 Personen interniert. Am Weihnachtstag 1944 waren es schließlich 3988 Kriegsgefangene. Das Cultybraggan Camp entwickelte sich zu einem von zwei Hochsicherheitslagern im Vereinigten Königreich, in welchem glühende Anhänger des Nationalsozialismus und höherrangige Gefangene festgehalten wurden, die als gefährlich eingestuft worden waren. Am 22. Dezember 1944 wurde dort Wolfgang Rosterg, der als Verräter galt, von seinen Mitgefangenen ermordet. Fünf von ihnen wurden später in Pentonville gehängt. Im Mai 1947 wurde das Kriegsgefangenenlager aufgelöst. Fortan diente die Anlage als Ausbildungslager des britischen Militärs. Ursprünglich bestand das Cultybraggan Camp aus 80 Nissenhütten, von denen 62 für die Gefangenen vorgesehen waren. Im Laufe der Jahrzehnte wurden mehrere Hütten entfernt. Um 1960 wurde eine Trainingshütte zur Simulation von Gasangriffen eingerichtet. Des Weiteren wurden Schießstände sowie ein Trainingsparcours hinzugefügt; außerdem ein Explosivstofflager. Unterirdisch wurde in den frühen 1990er Jahren ein Bunker eingerichtet, der als Hauptquartier der Regionalregierung dienen sollte. Im Jahre 2004 endete die militärische Nutzung der Anlage.

Cumnock Juniors F.C.

Cumnock Juniors Football Club are a Scottish football club based in Cumnock, Ayrshire. The Nock play their home games at Townhead Park and compete in the West of Scotland Football League. History Birthed in 1912, they have a history of local and national success. Their nearest neighbours and rivals are Auchinleck Talbot. Both have shared many a hard-fought battle on the field. These matches are often looked upon as Junior football's equivalent to the "Old Firm" with passionate supporters from both sides. This rivalry has become less competitive over the years due to how much better Talbot are, this was proven in their most recent match-up being a 4–0 win for Talbot at Beechwood Park although Cumnock won the most important meeting of that season by beating Talbot on the way to winning the Scottish Junior cup in 2023. In the 1970s and 1980s this game would often attract a crowd of around 6000; although it has dwindled a bit over the years, the respect and rivalry is still noticeable. A Scottish Junior Cup tie between the two sides in the mid-1970s attracted well over 8000 spectators. Cumnock won 2–1. A "senior" team based in Cumnock also competed in the 19th century and participated in the early years of the Scottish Cup. Cumnock Juniors play in black and white. Their change strip is white and blue. From December 2018 until late 2019, the team was managed by local boy and former Queen of the South midfielder, Paul Burns. Tony McInally has been the manager of the club since November 2019. In 2020, Cumnock moved from the SJFA, to join the pyramid system in Scottish football as one of the inaugural members of the West of Scotland Football League. On 10 October 2020, the club announced they would not be participating in the inaugural season of the West of Scotland League due to concerns relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. The two main factors cited were the health and wellbeing of players under the guidelines and fans not being able to attend games.

Cuningar Loop

The Cuningar Loop is a meander on the River Clyde in Scotland which was converted to a woodland park in the mid-2010s. It lies within the territory of Rutherglen, South Lanarkshire, and Glasgow City Council, and is directly east of the district of Dalmarnock in Glasgow. History The first Glasgow Water Company's Act was obtained in 1806, and the company began to supply water early in 1809. Before the Victorian Loch Katrine aqueduct project was completed in the 1850s, it supplied water to Glasgow. Cuningar Loop was the location of several reservoirs that raised water from the Clyde and pumped it to a secondary reservoir at Sydney Street, from where it was distributed throughout the city. The Dalmarnock reservoirs were originally designed under the direction of Thomas Telford and James Watt. The derelict site was transformed into a country park, augmenting the 2014 Commonwealth Games village across the river. The site features boulders for rock climbing, riverside boardwalks, a BMX track, a playpark for children including a 'flying fox', public art installations and a common green area capable of hosting events. In 2019, holes were dug in the park in preparation for a facility to access naturally heated water underground in disused coal mines to provide it to nearby homes. The research was still ongoing in 2021. In the autumn of 2021 the park was the Glasgow area venue for the touring Jurassic Encounter open-air attraction featuring life-size animatronic dinosaurs. Later that year, a 23 metres (75 ft)-high sculpture by Steuart Padwick titled 'The Hope Sculpture' was installed. Since March 2025, the park has been host to Cuningar Loop parkrun. Footbridge A footbridge over the river connecting the west side of the new park to the Legacy Village area in Dalmarnock (and joining up with the Clyde Walkway and National Cycle Route 75 on the opposite bank) was completed in 2016.

Dairsie Old Church

Die Dairsie Old Church, ehemals St Mary’s Church, ist ein Kirchengebäude nahe der schottischen Ortschaft Dairsie in der Council Area Fife. 1984 wurde das Bauwerk als Einzeldenkmal in die schottischen Denkmallisten in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen. Eine ehemals zusätzlich bestehende Einstufung als Scheduled Monument wurde 2017 aufgehoben. Geschichte Die früheste Erwähnung einer Kirche am Standort stammt aus dem Jahre 1183. Vermutlich im Laufe des 13. Jahrhunderts veranlasste das Erzbistum St Andrews einen Neubau, den es der St Andrews Priory unterstellte. Die heutige Dairsie Old Parish Church wurde 1621 durch John Spottiswoode, Erzbischof von St Andrews, erbaut, der auf dem benachbarten Dairsie Castle residierte. Sie gehört damit zu den frühen nach-reformatorischen Kirchenbauten in Schottland. Im Laufe des 18. Jahrhunderts wurde der Dachstuhl nach einem Entwurf des schottischen Architekten Robert Balfour erneuert. Zwischen 1835 und 1837 wurde die Kirche umfassend überarbeitet. Im Jahre 1966 wurde die Dairsie Old Church aufgegeben. Beschreibung Die Dairsie Old Church steht isoliert rund 800 m südlich von Dairsie zwischen Dairsie Castle und der Dairsie Bridge am linken Eden-Ufer. Das längliche, vier Achsen weite Gebäude weist Merkmale der spätgotischen Architektur auf. Entlang der durch Strebepfeiler gegliederten Seitenfassaden reihen sich spitzbogige Maßwerke. Das segmentbogige Hauptportal an der Westfassade ist im Stile der Renaissance ausgestaltet. Darüber sind das Wappen der Spottiswoods sowie das Baujahr zu finden. In die kurze Westfassade sind zwei weite Maßwerke eingelassen. Das Gebäude schließt mit einem schiefergedeckten Walmdach. Von der Westseite ragt der oktogonale Glockenturm auf. Er schließt mit einer groben Balustrade und spitzem Helm. Einzelnachweise Weblinks Eintrag zu Dairsie, Old Church auf trove.scot, der Datenbank von Historic Environment Scotland (englisch)
Dairsie Old Church

Dairsie Old Church, formerly St Mary's Church, is the former parish church of Dairsie, in north-east Fife, Scotland. It is located around 1.2 kilometres (0.75 mi) south of Dairsie village. The present church was built in 1621, and is an unusual example of post-Reformation Gothic architecture in Scotland. It is no longer in use as a church, and is protected as a Category A listed building. History A church at Dairsie is recorded in 1183. In 1300 the church was granted to the Convent of St Andrews; it may have been rebuilt at this time. In 1621, the present church was built by John Spottiswoode (1565–1639), Archbishop of St Andrews, who had recently bought the adjacent Dairsie Castle. The Spottiswoode family crest, with John Spottiswoode's initials, is carved over the west door. In the late 18th century the original flat roof was replaced with the present piend (hipped) roof. A major refit was carried out in 1835–1837, including works to the interior, although most of this has since been removed. Ecclesiastical use of the church ceased in 1966, the congregation now using the former Free Church in Dairsie village.

Dairsie Castle

Dairsie Castle ist eine Burg 1,3 Kilometer südlich von Dairsie. im Nordosten der schottischen Council Area Fife. Die restaurierte Burg liegt über dem Fluss Eden. Geschichte Die erste an dieser Stelle errichtete Burg gehörte den Bischöfen von St Andrews und könnte im Auftrag von Bischof William de Lamberton, der sein Amt von 1298 bis 1328 bekleidete, erbaut worden sein. Das schottische Parlament tagte Anfang 1335 auf der Burg. Im 16. Jahrhundert ließ die Familie Learmonth die Burg umbauen. James Douglas, 4. Earl of Morton, der damalige schottische Regent, belagerte die Burg 1575. König Jakob VI. weilte 1583, nach seiner Flucht vor dem Überfall auf Ruthven im Juni desselben Jahres, auf Dairsie Castle. Im 17. Jahrhundert wurde die Burg an John Spottiswoode (1565–1639), den Erzbischof von St Andrews, verkauft. Dieser ließ 1621 die alte Kirche von Dairsie in der Nähe der Burg errichten. Dairsie Castle verfiel im 19. Jahrhundert, wurde aber in den 1990er-Jahren restauriert und wird heute als Feriendomizil betrieben. Historic Scotland hat es als historisches Bauwerk der Kategorie B gelistet, bis 1997, als die Renovierungsarbeiten begannen, galt es auch als Scheduled Monument.

Dairsie Castle

Dairsie Castle is a restored tower house located 1.3 kilometres (0.81 mi) south of Dairsie in north-east Fife, Scotland. The castle overlooks the River Eden. History The first castle built here was the property of the bishops of St Andrews, and may have been constructed by William de Lamberton, bishop of St Andrews from 1298 to 1328. A Scottish parliament was held at the castle in early 1335. The castle was rebuilt in the 16th century by the Learmonth family. In March 1572, during the Marian Civil War, the Laird of Dairsie, who was Provost of St Andrews, invited two English ambassadors Thomas Randolph and William Drury to banquet at the castle. They refused to come, and, it was said, instead he invited the new archbishop of St Andrews Gavin Hamilton, the minister of St Andrews, Robert Hamilton and William Skene to enjoy the feast he had prepared. Patrick Learmonth of Dairsie loaned money to William Kirkcaldy of Grange and held some jewels of Mary, Queen of Scots, as a pledge. James Douglas, 4th Earl of Morton, then regent of Scotland, asked him to return the jewels. Regent Morton laid siege to Dairsie Castle in 1575. King James VI of Scotland stayed at Dairsie Castle in 1583 following his escape from the Raid of Ruthven in June 1583. In the 17th century it was sold to John Spottiswoode (1565–1639), Archbishop of St Andrews, who built Dairsie Old Church next to the castle in 1621. Dairsie Castle became ruinous in the 19th century, but was rebuilt in the 1990s, and is now operated as holiday accommodation. It is a Category B listed building, and was formerly a Scheduled Ancient Monument, having been de-scheduled in 1997 prior to the restoration works. Citations References Webster, Bruce (1998).
