Borders (destilleri)

The Borders er et destilleri, der fremstiller maltwhisky, gin og vodka i byen Hawick i Scottish Borders. Destilleriet producerer maltwhisky, William Kerrs Gin. samt vodka og har et besøgscenter på Commercial Road. Det blev etableret i 2018. Historie The Borders destilleri er det første skotske whiskydestilleri i Scottish Borders siden 1837, blev operationelt i marts 2018 og åbnede for offentligheden den 1. maj 2018. Destilleriet er beliggende i en markant bygning i byens centrum, som tidligere har huset Hawick Electric Company og flere ingeniørvirksomheder. Destilleriet består af to store haller fra 1880’erne, forbundet med en moderne glasudvidelse til en Tudor Cotswold-bygning. Produkter Destilleriet har to wash stills, to spirit stills og en specialfremstillet Carter Head-destillationskedel, produceret af Forsyths of Rothes. Mens maltwhiskyen lagres, har ledelsen udviklet en mere traditionel blended whisky under mærkerne “Clan Fraser” og "Clan Fraser Reserve" samt en mere markant blended malt under mærket “Lower East Side”. I 2022 udgav The Borders Distillery "WS:01 Borders Malt & Rye". Dette er den første blend, der har forladt Scottish Borders-regionen i 185 år. Byggen, der anvendes på destilleriet, dyrkes udelukkende i Borders, og ved fuld kapacitet vil destilleriet producere op til 1,6 millioner liter ren alkohol. William Kerr's Borders Gin fremstilles ved brug af destilleriets egen maltede spiritus, som mæskes og fermenteres på stedet, hvorefter ginnens destillation foregår i en specialbygget Carter Head-destillationskedel, en særligt modificeret kolonneapparat. Ginnen er opkaldt efter William Kerr (1779-1814), som var født i Hawick og blev gartner ved Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew i London. Referencer

Islands of Fleet

The Islands of Fleet are a group of small islands in Galloway, Scotland. They are in Fleet Bay, which is part of Wigtown Bay, and is in turn part of the Solway Firth in the Irish Sea. There are three main islands. Murray Isles, owned by the National Trust for Scotland, with the small rock "Horse Mark" off it. Ardwall Isle (Ard Bhaile - high town), which has a cairn and the remains of a chapel on it, and has the "Old Man of Fleet" off it. The largest of the three, it is approximately 19 hectares (47 acres) in extent. Barlocco Island, with the "Three Brethren" off it. Barlocco Island is about 10 hectares (25 acres). It has a pebble beach where a boat can be anchored or beached. At low tide it is accessible on foot, by tractor, or quad bike. Barlocco Isle was put up for sale in April 2023 for GBP 150,000 (USD 190,000). Despite an apparent 'worldwide interest' (from Norway, Italy, Germany and the US) and a closing date for bids around 16 May 2023, there was no definitive public confirmation that the island had been sold.(situation as of January 2026) This could be due to the fact that it may not be allowed to develop it, as the island (and in fact, all the Islands of Fleet) are situated within NatureScot's Borgue Coast Site of Special Scientific Interest, a government designation for “nationally important natural areas” within the United Kingdom, per the Scottish government. Ardwall Isle, Barlocco Isle, and the Murray Isles are four of 43 tidal islands that can be walked to from the mainland of Great Britain and two of 17 that can be walked to from the Scottish mainland.

Isle of May Priory

The Isle of May Priory was a monastery and community of Benedictine monks established for 9 monks of Reading Abbey on the Isle of May in the Firth of Forth, Scotland, in 1153, under the patronage of David I of Scotland. The priory passed into the control of St Andrews Cathedral Priory in the later 13th century, and in 1318 the community relocated to Pittenweem Priory on the Fife coast. The upstanding and excavated remains of the priory were listed as a scheduled monument in 1958. St. Adrian's Priory Ethernan was a 7th-century Scottish monk martyred by the Picts around 669 and believed to be buried on the Isle of May. which became the centre of his cult. He was honored in a number of places in Scotland; pilgrims came to the Isle of May to pray at his shrine for healing. Adrian of May later built a monastery on the Isle of May, which likely consisted of a series of Irish-style beehive-shaped houses and a chapel. The island was a popular destination for pilgrims during the later Middle Ages. Around 875, marauding Vikings invaded the island and slaughtered the monks. The island was then abandoned for centuries. At some point during the Middle Ages, Ethernan got conflated with Adrian of May, whose shrine attracted pilgrims for the next several centuries. His cult is most likely a misremembering of Ethernan from a time when the Picts had ceased to function as an ethnic group within Scotland and ancient martyrdoms in Britain and Ireland were commonly attributed to Vikings. Priory of St. Mary the Virgin In 1145, King David I of Scotland gave the island to Reading Abbey, (founded by his brother-in-law, Henry I of England) in Berkshire, England. The monks agreed to maintain nine priests on the island to pray for the souls of the Kings Of Scots. The English Benedictines erected a small monastery dedicated to St. Mary the Virgin, with a shrine to St. Ethernan. The King and his successors endowed the priory with many gifts. Building was hampered due to raiding parties of Scandinavians who had settled in Orkney. The privations and isolation of the location finally led Reading Abbey to sell the property to the Bishop of St. Andrews in 1288, who gave it the canons of St. Andrews. In the late thirteenth century, a jurisdictional dispute arose between the Bishop of St. Andrews and Reading over ownership of the island. When in 1313 the island was declared a part of the diocese of St. Andrews, English forces attacked the island and destroyed the monastery. A new chapel was subsequently built in honor of St. Adrian. In 1318, the Augustinians relocated to Pittenweem Priory.

Монастырь Святого Адриана

Монастырь Святого Адриана (англ. St. Adrian's Priory) — упразднённый мужской монастырь в Шотландии. История В Средние века на острове Мей (Мэ-Эйя), в заливе Ферт-оф-Форт у восточных берегов Шотландии, подвизался монах Адриан. Он принял мученическую смерть в 875 году от рук язычников-датчан. Королём Давидом Первым был в 1145 г. в память мученика основан монастырь Святого Адриана (St. Adrian's Priory). В «Оркнейской саге» (Orkneyinga saga) описывается посещение острова Мей викингами XII века Свеном Аслейвссоном (Sweyn Asleifsson) и Маргадом Гримссоном (Margad Grimsson), случившееся после того, как они были изгнаны из страны Оркнэ ярлом Рёгнвальдом Кали Кольссоном (Rögnvald Kali Kolsson) и плыли вдоль восточных берегов Шотландии: Однако, упоминаемое в «Оркнейской саге» имя аббата Балдуина отсутствует в местных источниках. Не исключено, впрочем, что под «Балдуином» в саге подразумевался Св. Балдред (St Baldred)... В середине XIII века епископ Вишарт (Wishart) из города Сент-Андрюс купил монастырь Святого Адриана. Монастырские корпуса были окончательно переданы городу Сент-Андрюс в 1318 году, а монахов перевели в Питтенуим. В 1549 г. остров Мей приобрёл Патрик Лермонт (Patrick Learmonth). Он воздвиг в пределах бывшего монастыря круглую башню с бойницами. Однако, через два года Лермонт продал остров Эндрю Бальфуру оф Маунткьюэни (Andrew Balfour of Mountquhanie), скончавшемуся в 1570-м.

Bradastac

Bradastac (Scottish Gaelic: "Steep stack") is a sea stack in the St Kilda archipelago, Outer Hebrides, Scotland. It is just north of Hirta and has a height of 63 meters. The stack's name means "Steep stack" from Old Norse: bratti-stakkr. History The stack has never been inhabited but has contributed to the local economy by supplying the St Kildans with sea birds and their eggs. In the 19th century the St Kildans were observed collecting eggs from stacks in baskets like flat-bottomed bee hives, each of 17 baskets holding about 400 guillemot eggs. Bradastac was specifically used by St. Kildans to collect fulmars and their eggs. To do this St. Kildans would lower themselves on ropes over the cliffs of Conachair, the highest point of Hirta and the archipelago. They would then abseil down the cliffs and onto Bradastac, collecting fulmars and their eggs as they went, which they then brought back up the cliffs in baskets. Geography Bradastac is located northwest of the summit of Conachair where the sheer cliffs fall into the sea from a height of 427 metres (1,401 ft). It has a height of 63 meters. Geology Bradastac is made up of a medium-grained, cream-colored Conachair Granite, a leucogranite containing vapour-filled cavities or "druses", and containing quartz and feldspar, and is part of the St. Kilda Tertiary igneous complex. The stack is blocky, resulting from vertical and subhorizontal joints that developed as the granite cooled. The granite intruded into the older Mullach Sgar complex, and the junction between the two is seen in the high cliffs above the stack. The stack is a remnant of a massive Palaeogene ring volcano that was active 55 to 60 million years ago. See also List of sea stacks in Scotland References

OVO Hydro

El OVO Hydro (conocido anteriormente como The SSE Hydro) es una arena deportiva de Glasgow (Escocia), que también sirve como plataforma para conciertos y otros eventos de entretenimiento, con una capacidad para 14 300 personas. Es el recinto cubierto más grande de Escocia, con un uso similar a los actuales Manchester Arena de la ciudad de Mánchester o el The O2 Arena de Londres. Fue una de las principales instalaciones de los Juegos de la Mancomunidad de 2014, así como la sede de los MTV Europe Music Awards de 2014. Antecedentes El contrato para construir el Hydro fue otorgado a Lend Lease Group en un espacio anexo al Scottish Event Campus (SEC en inglés). Los trabajos se iniciaron en febrero de 2011 y finalizaron en septiembre de 2013. SECL había identificado la necesidad de un nuevo espacio diseñado específicamente para grandes eventos de gran rendimiento que van desde conciertos de rock a los espectáculos infantiles. La razón principal para la construcción de este edificio es debido a la actual falta de un espacio dedicado a la realización de eventos en una zona cubierta en Glasgow, ya que los demás recintos o lugares de la región se habían pequeños y obsoletos. The Hydro tiene el potencial de crear 1400 puestos de trabajo. El impacto económico actual de la SECC es £336 millones al año y cuenta con 1,5 millones de visitantes anuales, por esto el precio del pabellón asciende a £131 millones.​ Estructura y diseño El recinto fue diseñado por los arquitectos Foster and Partners y Arup que ya habían diseñado el Auditorio Clyde de la misma ciudad de Glasgow. La estructura se basa en una sala circular, con techo abovedado con una altura de 120 metros, que, al igual que el vecino Auditorio Clyde, su escenario ha sido diseñado desde adentro hacia afuera. Gracias al tipo de construcción los visitantes pueden disfrutar líneas de visión directa desde cada uno de los asientos, así como de la más alta calidad acústica. El pabellón posee una capacidad para 14 300 espectadores sentados y en pie, mientras que 12 306 para una audiencia totalmente sentada,​ pero pueden reducirse fácilmente gracias a la capacidad de reconfigurar sus asientos, siendo utilizable para exposiciones y eventos de menor audiencia. Localización La arena es parte, junto al SEC Centre y el Auditorio Clyde, del Scottish Event Campus, ubicado en Glasgow. Está ubicado a orillas del río Clayde, cercano a los principales enlaces de carretera, ferrocarril, mar y aire.​ Nombre El proveedor de gas del Reino Unido, SSE, obtuvo los derechos sobre la denominación del recinto desde el inicio de la constricción en 2011, mediante la firma de un patrocinio con diez años de duración avaluado en 15 millones de libras esterlinas, acuerdo firmado entre SEC Ltd. y SSE, con el que el recinto fue nombrado oficialmente como The SSE Hydro. A finales de 2021 se anunciaría el nuevo nombre del recinto tras el término del anterior contrato de denominación, cambiando su nombre a OVO Hydro, gracias al nuevo socio Ovo Energy.​ Referencias Wikimedia Commons alberga una categoría multimedia sobre The Hydro.

OVO Hydro

L'OVO Hydro è un'arena polifunzionale della città di Glasgow. Costruita dal febbraio 2011 all'aprile 2013, fu aperta ufficialmente alla fruizione pubblica il 30 settembre 2013 con un concerto di Rod Stewart. Per ragioni di sponsorizzazione l'arena ha avuto vari nomi commerciali: inaugurata nel febbraio 2011 con il nome SSE Hydro da Scottish Hydro Electric, nell'ottobre 2021 ha assunto la denominazione commerciale attuale di OVO Hydro, derivante da un contratto stipulato con OVO Energy. Antefatti Il SEC Centre necessitava una nuova arena in cui sport e concerti potessero essere ospitati. Precedentemente questi ultimi si svolgevano nella Concert Hall 4, un'arena situata all'interno dell'edificio principale del SEC. Tuttavia, a causa dei limitati posti a sedere (non più di 10 000), era impossibile che la Hall 4 potesse ospitare eventi su larga scala. Da qui la decisione di costruire un'arena alternativa al SEC. L'Hydro sorge tra il SEC Centre (centro congressi) e il SEC Armadillo (sala teatrale).
