Die '''Old Parish Church of St. Mary''' ist ein ehemaliges Kirchengebäude in der [[Schottland|schottischen]] Stadt [[Kirkintilloch]] in [[East Dunbartonshire]]. Das Bauwerk liegt im Norden der Stadt an der Kreuzung der ''West High Street'' mit der ''Cowgate''. 1971 wurde die Old Parish Church of St. Mary in die [[Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest|schottischen Denkmallisten]] in der höchsten Kategorie A aufgenommen.<ref name=list>{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=36645}}</ref>

== Geschichte ==
Die Kirchengeschichte an diesem Ort kann bis in das Jahr 1140 zurückverfolgt werden. In dieser Zeit befand sich eine ebenfalls der Heiligen Maria geweihte Kapelle an diesem Ort. Die [[Pfarrkirche]] des [[Parish]]s befand sich im Osten der Stadt am Standort des heutigen Friedhofs (siehe [[Auld Aisle Cemetery]]). Die alte Kapelle wurde 1644 zu Gunsten der Church of St. Mary abgerissen, die bis 1914 als Pfarrkirche genutzt wurde. Auf Grund baulicher Mängel wurde zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts der Bau einer neuen Kirche angeregt. 1914 wurde die [[St. Mary Parish Church]] schließlich fertiggestellt und der alte Kirchenbau nicht weiter genutzt.<ref>{{Canmore|45220}}</ref><ref>[http://www.kirkintilloch-herald.co.uk/community/future-is-the-past-for-st-mary-s-in-kirkintilloch-1-1627994 Kirkintilloch Herald: ''Future is the past for St Mary’s in Kirkintilloch'', 16. Mai 2011.]</ref> Dieses Gebäude ist ebenfalls denkmalgeschützt und in die Kategorie B einsortiert.<ref>{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=36662}}</ref> Heute beherbergt das alte Kirchengebäude ein Museum.<ref>{{Webarchiv|url=http://www.edlc.co.uk/heritage/auld_kirk_museum.aspx |wayback=20130307214730 |text=Informationen zum ''Auld Kirk Museum'' |archiv-bot=2019-05-04 23:03:54 InternetArchiveBot }}</ref>

== Beschreibung ==
Das Kirchengebäude weist einen kreuzförmigen Grundriss auf. Es schließt mit [[Satteldach|Satteldächern]] ab, deren Giebel als [[Staffelgiebel]] gearbeitet sind.<ref name=list/> Der Glockenturm liegt isoliert nördlich der Kirche. An seinem Standort befanden sich einst die Zollstelle und das Rathaus von Kirkintilloch. Auf Grund einer Straßenverbreiterung mussten Gebäude entfernt werden, weshalb der Turm heute nicht mehr mit dem Kirchengebäude verbunden ist.<ref>{{Canmore|45234|Town Steeple}}</ref>

Clonbeith Castle

[[Datei:Clonbeith.jpg|mini|Haupteingang von Clonbeith Castle mit [[Werkstein]] und unbehauenem Stein.]]
'''Clonbeith Castle''' liegt im alten Gerichtsbezirk ''Cunningham'' bei ''Auchentiber'', an einer Seitenstraße der B778 in der [[Schottland|schottischen]] Verwaltungseinheit [[North Ayrshire]].

== Das Landhaus ==
Clonbeith Castle ist die Ruine eines einfachen, rechteckigen [[Landhaus (Architektur)|Landhauses]] aus dem 17. Jahrhundert mit einer Grundfläche von 12,9 Metern × 6,9 Metern und etwa 15 Zentimeter dicken Mauern. Das Erdgeschoss hatte eine [[Gewölbe]]decke, der Eingang war in der Mitte und führte in einen Gang mit einer geraden Treppe, die nach rechts weg in die Halle im 1. Obergeschoss führte. Eine [[Wendeltreppe]] in einem quadratischen Treppenhaus führte zu den oberen Geschossen. Die Halle hatte Fenster auf drei Seiten und einen großen offenen Kamin auf der vierten Seite. Auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite lag ein kreisrunder [[Auslucht]], der von einer Reihe von [[Konsole (Bauwesen)|Konsolen]] gestützt wurde. Die Eingangstür im [[Renaissance]]stil trägt noch heute das Baujahr 1607. Das Haus wurde bis zum 18. Jahrhundert genutzt.<ref name=McGibbonRoss374375/> Der Name „Clonbeith“ soll von den [[Keltische Sprachen|keltischen Wörtern]] ''Cluan'' (dt.: Weideland) und ''Beithe'' (dt.: Birke) abgeleitet sein.

== Die Herren von Clonbeith ==
Das von ''Pont'' in den 1690er-Jahren als ''Klonbyith'' bezeichnete Haus gehörte damals ''William Cunningham'', einem Abkömmling dieser Nebenlinie der ''Cunninghames'' von ''Glencairn'' durch die von [[Aiket Castle]]. Seine Gattin hieß ''Agnes'' und verstarb 1612.

Die Aufzeichnungen über die Herdsteuer von 1691 zeigen, dass „Clonbeith House“ fünf Herdstellen hatte und 19 weitere Wohnhäuser damit verbunden waren.<ref name=Urquhart94/> ''Alexander Cuningham'' soll einen Professor im Garten eines Colleges in [[Glasgow]] angegriffen haben und wurde gezwungen, sein Fehlverhalten vor einer Versammlung seiner Freunde offen zuzugeben.

Zusammen mit etwa dreißig anderen Teilnehmern erschoss ''John Cuningham'' 1586 ''Hugh'', den 4. [[Earl of Eglinton]], ein Gnadenschuss,<ref name=Campbell155/> wurde in einem Kamin im [[Hamilton Palace]] versteckt gefunden und von ''Robert'', dem Bruder von Hugh, und seinen Unterstützern „in Stücke geschnitten“. Robert soll nach damaliger Auffassung den Tod seines Bruders „ehrenvoll vergolten“ haben, indem er John Cunningham in [[Hamilton (South Lanarkshire)|Hamilton]] tötete, vermutlich im Hamilton Palace.<ref name=Ker161/>

''James Cunningham'' aus ''Clonbeith'' und ''Danmuyle'' (1581) war der Vater von ''John Cunninghame'' aus ''Corsehill''.

''Robertson'' weist darauf hin, dass verschiedene Linien der Familie ihren Namen unterschiedlich schreiben: „Cunningham“ für ''Baidland'' und ''Clonbeith'', „Cunninghame“ für ''Glencairn'' und ''Corsehill'', „Cuninghame“ für ''Caddel'' und [[Monkredding House (North Ayrshire)|Monkredding]] und schließlich „Cuningham“ für ''Glengarnock''.<ref name=McNaught/> Die Cunninghams aus Clonbeith werden üblicherweise als von ''Clonbeith'' und ''Darnmyule'' bezeichnet, wobei Darmule näher an Kilwinning liegt.

''Daniel Cunningham'', dessen Gattin ''Mary Wallace'' war, verkaufte mit Einverständnis seines Sohnes ''William'' das Anwesen an ''James Scott'', der 1633 ''Provost'' von ''Irvine'' war.<ref name=PatersonA253/> 1691 verkaufte ''Walter Scott'', der Bruder von James Scott, die Ländereien an ''Patrick Warner'', Gesandter von ''Irvine''.

''William Cunninghams'' Gattin war ''Jean''; 1717 gibt es einen Bezug zu einem ''George Cunningham'' aus ''Clonbeith''.

1698 kaufte ''Hugh Cunningham'' aus ''Clonbeith'' das Anwesen Monkredding, das dann zum Sitz der Familie wurde.<ref name=PatersonB515/>

== Die Lady von Clonbeith ==
Die „Leddy o'Clumbeith“ ist eine Geistergeschichte von ''Dr. Duguid''<ref name=Service8183/> aus den 1820er-Jahren. Eine Bedienstete eines Bauernhofes in Clonbeith war auf dem Weg zu einem Stelldichein in der ''Blair Tavern'', als sie mit Pferd und Wagen in einen Bergwerksschacht fiel und starb. Andere behaupten, ihr Liebster hätte sie umgebracht und wäre dann nach ihr in den Schacht gesprungen. Ihr Geist sucht die Felder um Auchentiber heim.

== Die Lady im Torf ==
[[Datei:Cowlinnburn.JPG|mini|links|Die Mündung des ''Cowlinn Burn'' in das ''Lugton Water'' bei ''Montgreenan Castle''.]]
[[Datei:Map of Dunduff castle & roads.jpg|mini|Karte von William Aiton von 1811 mit der Eintragung „Climbeith“.]]
Dr. Duguid<ref name=Service8183/> berichtet in den 1840er-Jahren, dass er bei „Clumbeith“ (Clonbeith) auf dem Weg nach „Meg'swa's“ ''Pate Glunch'' beim Torfstechen traf. Pate Glunch war normalerweise ein stiller, sturer Mann, aber dieses Mal war er sehr aufgeregt und brachte den Doktor zur Leiche einer „Bonnie Lady“, die seit Langem in einem Loch im Torf lag. Das Mädchen muss etwa 18–20 Jahre alt gewesen sein, hatte rosige Backen, blondes Haar und ein süßes Lächeln spielte um ihre Lippen. Ihre Identität blieb unbekannt, aber man sagte, dass sie mit der Familie von ''Montgreenan'' in Verbindung gestanden sein soll.

== Detailgeschichte ==
1691 kaufte Rev. ''Patrick Warner'', der bereits das Anwesen Clonbeith gekauft hatte, auch Scotts Ländereien in ''Irvine'', legte den größten Teil des ''Loch of Irvine'' oder ''Trindlemoss'' trocken, der später „Scott's Loch“ genannt wurde, nachdem er aus dem Exil in [[Holland]] zurückgekehrt war.<ref name=Strawhorn60/>

Der ''Cowlinn Burn'' mündet bei ''Montgreenan Castle'' (auch Bischofspalast genannt) in das ''Lugton Water''. Eine Wohnstatt namens ''Cowlinn'' ist auf ''Thomsons'' Landkarte von 1820 vermerkt und eine ''Clonbeith Mill'' lag ganz in der Nähe.

Im 19. Jahrhundert gab es in der Nähe von Clonbeith Castle einen [[Kalkstein]]bruch und Arbeiterhäuser. Aus dem Steinbruch wurden die örtlichen [[Kalkofen|Kalkbrennöfen]] versorgt.<ref name=AANHS4/>

Mr ''Baird Kirkland'' fand im 19. Jahrhundert ein schön geformtes, rundes und ovales Steinwerkzeug in Clonbeith oder Clonkeith.<ref name=Smith60/>

Glasgow Art Club

2024-03-18T00:45:20Z

Crowsus: /* Geschichte */ fix link

[[Datei:The Glasgow Art Club 2.jpg|mini]]
Der '''Glasgow Art Club''' ist eine Vereinigung von schottischen [[Künstler]]n und Kunstinteressierten. Er wurde 1867 gegründet und hat seinen Sitz in 185 Bath Street in [[Glasgow]]. Der Club hat dort eigene [[Atelier|Studios]], [[Galerie (Kunst)|Galerien]] und [[Konferenzraum|Konferenzräume]] und veranstaltet regelmäßig [[Kunstausstellung]]en, [[Konzert (Veranstaltung)|Konzerte]] und Dinnerpartys.

== Geschichte ==
Der Glasgow Art Club wurde 1867 von William Dennistoun, einem jungen Amateurkünstler, gegründet. Dennistoun war aufgrund seiner angeschlagenen Gesundheit gezwungen, Glasgow zu verlassen und auf dem Land Linderung seiner Beschwerden zu suchen. Seine Freunde, die ihn regelmäßig auf seinem [[Cottage]] in [[Kilpatrick]] besuchten, schlugen vor, dass sie einen Kunstklub gründen sollten. Zusammen mit etwa 10 anderen Amateurkünstlern führte Dennistoun einleitende Diskussionen in einer Teestube über einer Bäckerei. Die konstituierende Sitzung fand im ''Waverley Temperance Hotel'' in der [[Buchanan Street]] statt. Bei ihren monatlichen Sitzungen brachten alle Mitglieder Gemälde mit, meistens [[Aquarell]]e, die von den anderen kommentiert und kritisiert wurden. Natürlich kam es dabei gelegentlich zu handfesten Auseinandersetzungen.

In den 1870er Jahren wuchs die Anzahl der Mitgliedschaft stetig an, so dass auch Berufskünstler um Aufnahme in den Club baten. Die Gesuche von manchen jungen Künstlern, die später als die [[Glasgow School|Glasgow Boys]] bekannt werden sollten, wurden zunächst abgelehnt. Darunter waren [[James Guthrie (Maler)|James Guthrie]], [[Edward Arthur Walton]], [[William York MacGregor]] und [[James Paterson]]. Die räumlichen Beschränkungen im ''Waverley Temperance Hotel'' wurden nun so offensichtlich, dass der Klub 1875 in das ''Sauchiehall Street Hotel'', auch bekannt als ''The Waverly'', umzog, wo nun größere Veranstaltungen abgehalten werden konnten.

Am Ende der 1870er Jahre wurde es erforderlich, dauerhafte Räumlichkeiten für die Aktivitäten des Klubs zu finden. 1878 mietete man Räume in 62 Bothwell Circus. Die Bezahlung der Miete und der Ankauf des Mobiliars war möglich geworden, da der Klub in den vergangenen Jahren durch Verkäufe von Bildern genug Geld eingenommen hatte. Die hohen Fixkosten zwangen den Klub aber, ständig neue Mitglieder zu gewinnen, darunter auch die zunächst abgelehnten Glasgow Boys. Mitte der 1880er Jahre setzte eine Gruppe von einflussreichen Mitgliedern um James Guthrie sogar durch, dass auch kunstinteressierte Laien in den Klub aufgenommen wurden. Allerdings dauerte es 1983, dass auch Frauen in den Klub eintreten konnten.

Ende der 1880er Jahre zog der Klub nochmals um, diesmal in die 151 Bath Street. Die stark angewachsene Mitgliederzahl erforderte aber den Ankauf eigener Räume. Daher kaufte der Klub zu Beginn der 1890er Jahre in der Bath Street [[181–199 Bath Street|zwei aneinandergrenzende Stadthäuser]]. [[John Keppie]], ein Mitglied des Klubs, wurde mit der Organisation des Umzugs betraut. Er richtete auch eine Galerie in den kleinen Hinterhofgärten der Gebäude ein. Nach neuesten Erkenntnissen half der junge [[Charles Rennie Mackintosh]] bei der dekorativen Ausgestaltung der Galerie. In den Räumen wurden in den folgenden Jahrzehnten zahlreiche Dinner, Tänze, Konzerte, Vorträge und nicht zuletzt Ausstellungen veranstaltet.

Crowsus: /* Beschreibung */ link

Unter der Adresse '''181–199 Bath Street''' in der [[Schottland|schottischen]] Stadt [[Glasgow]] befinden sich Geschäftsgebäude. 1970 wurden sie als Ensemble in die [[Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest|schottischen Denkmallisten]] in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen.<ref name="list">{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=32960}}</ref>

== Beschreibung ==
Der Bau der Gebäudezeile wurde 1833 begonnen. Den Entwurf lieferte vermutlich der schottische Architekt [[John Baird (Architekt, 1798)|John Baird]]. Zu Beginn der 1930er Jahre wurde eines der Gebäude nach einem Entwurf von ''Andrew Robertson'' neu aufgebaut. Hervorzuheben ist das Gebäude 185, welches den ''[[Glasgow Art Club]]'' beherbergte. Für seine aufwändige Innengestaltung zeichnet unter anderem [[Charles Rennie Mackintosh]] verantwortlich.<ref name="list" /><ref>[http://scottisharchitects.org.uk/building_full.php?id=207740 Eintrag auf scottisharchitects.org.uk]</ref>

Die dreistöckige Gebäudezeile nimmt das Karree zwischen Bath Street und Bath Lane sowie Douglas Street und Blythswood Street vollständig ein. Die nordexponierte Frontfassade ist 24 Achsen weit. Bis auf wenige Details sind die Fassaden der einzelnen Häuser identisch aufgebaut. Das Mauerwerk besteht aus polierten Quadersteinen. Im Bereich des Erdgeschosses ist es leicht [[Rustizierung (Architektur)|rustiziert]]. Links befinden sich die Haupteingänge, die meist mit [[Ionische Ordnung|ionischen]] Säulen gestaltet sind. Ist dies nicht der Fall, so schließt das Portal mit einem schlichten [[Gesims]]e, das auf [[Konsole (Bauwesen)|Konsolen]] ruht. Die Fenster des Erdgeschosses schließen mit flachen [[Segmentbogen|Segmentbögen]] mit [[Schlussstein]]en. Die länglichen Fenster des ersten Obergeschosses sind hingegen mit schlichtem Gesimsen auf Konsolen [[Verdachung|verdacht]]. Am Haus Nr. 183 tritt eine gerundete [[Auslucht]] mit [[Korinthische Ordnung|korinthischen]] Säulen heraus.

Das '''Athenaeum Theatre''' ist ein Theatergebäude in der [[Schottland|schottischen]] Stadt [[Glasgow]]. Nach einer Umnutzung wird es heute nicht mehr als solches genutzt.<ref name=mirtenbraet>{{Canmore|130259}}</ref> Der Theaterkomplex besteht aus zwei einzelnen Gebäuden, die 1966 separat in die [[Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest|schottischen Denkmallisten]] jeweils in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen wurden.<ref name=list>{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=33004}}</ref><ref name=list2>{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=33234}}</ref>

== Geschichte ==
Mit der Gründung der ''The Glasgow Athenaeum School of Music'' wurde das Bauwerk als Theaterschule errichtet und bereits drei Jahre später erweitert. In den 1930er Jahren erwies sich das Gebäude als zu klein. Darum wurde der benachbarte ''[[4 Nelson Mandela Place|Glasgow Liberal Club]]'' als Erweiterung aufgekauft. Nachdem 1984 erneut größere Räumlichkeiten benötigt wurden, entschied man sich für einen Neubau für das heutige [[Royal Conservatoire of Scotland]], der 1988 offiziell eröffnet wurde.<ref name=mirtenbraet/><ref name=kegelrobbe>[http://scottisharchitects.org.uk/building_full.php?id=224720 Eintrag auf scottisharchitects.org.uk]</ref>

Der ältere Teil des Theatergebäudes befindet sich am ehemaligen ''St George’s Place'', dem heutigen ''Nelson Mandela Place''. Es wurde zwischen 1886 und 1890 erbaut. Die Erweiterung entlang der [[Buchanan Street]] entstand zwischen 1891 und 1893. Als Architekt lieferte [[John James Burnet]] die Entwürfe für beide Bauwerke.<ref name=mirtenbraet/><ref name=kegelrobbe/> Im Jahre 1932 verheerte ein Brand Teile des Innenraums des älteren Gebäudes.<ref name=list2/> Für eine Überarbeitung und Erweiterung in den 1960er Jahren zeichnet [[Alexander Buchanan Campbell]] verantwortlich. Um 2007 wurde das Bauwerk zu einem Geschäftsgebäude umgestaltet. Im Zuge der Umbauarbeiten gingen verschiedene Elemente des Innenraums verloren.<ref name=mirtenbraet/>

[[Datei:Elder Park Library.jpg|mini|Elder Park Library]]
Die '''Elder Park Library''' ist eine [[Bibliothek]] in der [[Schottland|schottischen]] Stadt [[Glasgow]]. 1970 wurde das Bauwerk in die [[Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest|schottischen Denkmallisten]] in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen.<ref name=list>{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=33310}}</ref>

== Geschichte ==
Isabella, Witwe des Schiffsingenieurs [[John Elder (Ingenieur)|John Elder]], entwickelte sich nach dessen Tod zur Mäzenin. So stiftete sie im Jahre 1903 auch die Elder Park Library als öffentliche Bibliothek. Auch der Buchbestand entstammt ihrer Stiftung. Am 5. September 1903 eröffnete [[Andrew Carnegie]] die Einrichtung feierlich.<ref name=flaschen>[http://scottisharchitects.org.uk/building_full.php?id=218439 Informationen auf scottisharchitects.org.uk]</ref>

== Beschreibung ==
Die Bibliothek befindet sich im Glasgower Stadtteil [[Govan]] am Ostrand des umgebenden [[Elder Park (Glasgow)|Elder Parks]]. Die Umsetzung des Entwurfs [[John James Burnet]]s im [[Edwardianische Architektur|edwardianischen]] [[Neobarock]] schlug mit geschätzten 27.000 £ zu Buche. In der ersten Hälfte der 1920er Jahre wurde die Gebäuderückseite überarbeitet.<ref name=flaschen/>

An der südostexponierten Frontseite des einstöckigen Gebäudes tritt ein [[Portikus]] [[Segmentbogen|segmentbögig]] heraus. Er ist mit gepaarten [[Toskanische Ordnung|toskanischen]] Säulen gestaltet. In die aufsitzende [[Balustrade]] ist eine skulpturierte [[Kartusche (Kunst)|Kartusche]] mit dem Wappen Govans eingelassen. Hinter der Balustrade ragt eine kleine Kuppel auf. Die Gebäudekanten sind mit [[Rustizierung (Architektur)|rustizierten]] [[Pilaster]]n gestaltet. Die beiden Giebel an der Gebäuderückseite zeigen [[Ochsenauge (Architektur)|Ochsenaugen]] im [[Tympanon (Architektur)|Tympanum]]. Unterhalb des schiefergedeckten Daches läuft eine Steinbalustrade um.<ref name=list/><ref name=flaschen/>

[[Datei:Glasgow City - 301 Albert Drive, The Knowe - 20230407110033.jpg|mini|The Knowe, 301 Albert Drive]]
'''The Knowe''' ist eine [[Villa]] in der [[Schottland|schottischen]] Stadt [[Glasgow]]. 1970 wurde das Bauwerk in die [[Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest|schottischen Denkmallisten]] in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen.<ref name=list>{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=33371}}</ref>

== Geschichte ==
Die Villa für den Hutproduzenten ''John Blair'' wurde in drei Phasen erbaut. Die ursprüngliche Villa entstand zwischen 1850 und 1853. Für den Entwurf zeichnet der schottische Architekt [[Alexander Thomson (Architekt)|Alexander Thomson]] verantwortlich, der zu dieser Zeit im Büro [[John Baird (Architekt, 1816)|John Bairds]] tätig war. Möglicherweise handelt es sich bei The Knowe um Thomsons frühestes eigenständig geplantes Gebäude. Bereits 1855 wurde die Villa durch Thomson erweitert. Erneut wurde The Knowe 1899 durch [[George Gunn]] und ''John Campbell McKellar'' erweitert.<ref>{{Canmore|158033}}</ref><ref>[https://scottisharchitects.org.uk/building_full.php?id=206935 Eintrag auf scottisharchitects.org.uk]</ref>

== Beschreibung ==
The Knowe steht am ''Albert Drive'' im südlichen Glasgower Stadtteil [[Pollokshields]]. Da die Villa zurückversetzt von der Straße steht, liegt sie jedoch näher an der rückwärtig verlaufenden ''Aytoun Road''. Sie ist im [[Historismus|historistischen]] [[Italianate-Stil]] mit [[Neuromanik|neoromanischen]] Details ausgestaltet. Die ursprüngliche Villa wies grob einen L-förmigen Grundriss auf und umfasste einen zweistöckigen Turm. Infolge der Erweiterungen ergibt sich ein deutlich komplexerer Grundriss. Rechts und rückwärtig schließen sich flachere Flügel an den Turm an, die aus der zweiten Bauphase stammen. Das Mauerwerk besteht aus [[Naturstein]]quadern unterschiedlicher Größe. Die Fenster sind teils mit [[Rundbogen|Rundbögen]] mit [[Rustizierung (Architektur)|rustizierten]] Bögen gestaltet. Die Gestaltung der an der Pforte gelegenen Lodge weist zahlreiche Parallelen auf.<ref name=list/>

'''Lidia Alma Thorpe''' (born 1973) is an Australian politician representing the [[Australian Greens]]. She has been a [[Australian Senate|senator]] for [[Victoria (Australia)|Victoria]] since 2020, and is the first [[Aboriginal Australians|Aboriginal]] senator from that state. From June to October 2022, she served as the Greens' deputy leader in the Senate.

Thorpe has previously been a member of the [[Parliament of Victoria|Victorian Parliament]]. On winning the [[2017 Northcote state by-election|Northcote state by-election]] on 18 November 2017 she became the first Aboriginal woman elected to the state's parliament, and served as the member for the division of [[Electoral district of Northcote|Northcote]] in the [[Victorian Legislative Assembly|Legislative Assembly]] from 2017 to 2018.

Thorpe has received media attention for her criticism of the legitimacy of Australian political institutions, which she views as stemming from colonialism.{{Clarify|date=September 2022}}<ref>{{Cite web |title=Senator Lidia Thorpe makes international headlines after 'colonising Queen' oath |url=https://www.sbs.com.au/nitv/article/senator-lidia-thorpe-makes-international-headlines-after-colonising-queen-oath/ea1ffhmym |access-date=2022-09-15 |website=SBS |language=en}}</ref>

In October 2022 Thorpe was forced to resign from the Greens' Senate deputy leadership position after it was revealed that she had dated a senior [[Rebels Motorcycle Club|Rebels outlaw bikie gang]] member while serving on the Senate committee which looked into bikie gangs.

Thorpe was the [[Australian Greens Victoria]] portfolio holder for Aboriginal Justice, Consumer Affairs, Skills and Training, Sport and Mental Health.<ref name="Greens"/><ref name=vicparl2021/>

In May 2018, she organised an historic gathering of [[Aboriginal elder]]s at the [[Parliament of Victoria]] to discuss the state's treaty processes. The meeting was organised as part of Thorpe's campaign to implement clan-based treaties, which would recognise the approximately 100 Aboriginal clans in Victoria. At the time, Thorpe said: "Our sovereignty and each of our language groups and our Clans must be clearly recognised in the government's treaty advancement legislation".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.sbs.com.au/nitv/nitv-news/article/2018/05/14/victorian-elders-call-clan-based-treaties-and-more-inclusion-process|title=Victorian Elders call for Clan-based treaties and more inclusion in process|work=NITV|last1=Hocking|first1=Rachel|date=14 May 2018|access-date=15 August 2018}}</ref> The delegation of clan Elders unanimously agreed to form an Elders' Council.

In a speech to Parliament in May 2021, Thorpe commented negatively on new bail laws being introduced into the Northern Territory and assumed that the [[Attorney-General of the Northern Territory]] was a white male, when the Attorney-General, [[Selena Uibo]], was an Indigenous woman.<ref>{{cite news |title=NT Attorney-General slams speech from Greens Senator that assumed she was a man who 'hopefully' was white |url=https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-05-13/nt-selena-uibo-lydia-thorpe-youth-justice-bail-law/100136066 |access-date=14 May 2021 |work=Australian Broadcasting Corporation|last1=Heaney|first1=Chelsea|date=13 May 2021 |language=en-AU}}</ref> Thorpe criticised the laws as racist, while Uibo countered that Thorpe simply said outrageous things to get on television and was not qualified to speak on the Northern Territory's issues. <ref>{{Cite news |date=2021-05-13 |title=NT Attorney-General slams speech from Greens Senator that assumed she was a man who 'hopefully' was white |language=en-AU |work=ABC News |url=https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-05-13/nt-selena-uibo-lydia-thorpe-youth-justice-bail-law/100136066 |access-date=2022-10-20}}</ref>

In December 2021, Thorpe was accused of telling Liberal Senator [[Hollie Hughes (politician)|Hollie Hughes]] "at least I keep my legs shut" during a parliamentary session. The Senate had been debating the [[National Disability Insurance Scheme]], and Hughes alleged that Thorpe made the comment in reference to her autistic son. Colleagues of Hughes said that she was left in tears.

In December 2021, following a fire that damaged the [[Old Parliament House, Canberra|Old Parliament House]] in Canberra, Thorpe was criticised for tweeting "Seems like the colonial system is burning down. Happy New Year everyone #AlwayswasAlwayswillBeAboriginalLand”. The tweet was criticised by members of both the [[Coalition (Australia)|Coalition]] and [[Australian Labor Party]].

Following the [[2022 Australian federal election|May 2022 federal election]], at which she was re-elected, Thorpe was elected by the Greens party room as the party's deputy leader in the Senate.<ref>{{Cite tweet|last=Bandt|first=Adam|author-link=Adam Bandt|user=adambandt|date=June 10, 2022|number=1535136884690927616|title=I thank my colleagues for their strong and continued support.

In a June 2022 interview, Thorpe said she was there to 'infiltrate' the Australian parliament and that the [[Australian flag]] had "no permission to be here". Fellow Aboriginal Senator [[Jacinta Nampijinpa Price]] denounced Thorpe's comments and called for her dismissal from parliament.<ref name=Graham>{{Cite news|website=news.com.au|url=https://www.news.com.au/national/politics/greens-senator-lidia-thorpe-said-she-is-here-to-infiltrate-australias-parliament/news-story/6d16a6a660f7f55612e20455d28d9fc8|title=Greens senator Lidia Thorpe said she is ‘here to infiltrate’ Australia’s parliament| last=Graham| first=Ben| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220623064536/https://www.news.com.au/national/politics/greens-senator-lidia-thorpe-said-she-is-here-to-infiltrate-australias-parliament/news-story/6d16a6a660f7f55612e20455d28d9fc8|archive-date=June 23, 2022|date=June 23, 2022}}</ref>

Thorpe gained media attention during her swearing-in ceremony, which was delayed due to her absence the week prior. She added the words "the colonising" in the required [[Oath of Allegiance (Australia)|Oath of Allegiance]] to [[Queen Elizabeth II]] by saying "I swear by Almighty God that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to ''the colonising'' Her Majesty Elizabeth the Second, Queen of Australia, Her heirs and successors according to law". Thorpe was immediately criticized by fellow Senators. Following an appeal by Senate President [[Sue Lines]] that the oath must be taken word-by-word, Thorpe recited the pledge once more, this time omitting the two words.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Australian senator Lidia Thorpe calls the Queen a ‘coloniser’ in mandatory oath of allegiance for parliament |url=https://inews.co.uk/news/world/australia-senator-lidia-thorpe-queen-coloniser-oath-alleigence-1772330 |access-date=2022-08-01 |website=inews.co.uk |language=en}}</ref><ref name=Butler>{{Cite news|newspaper=The Guardian| url=https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2022/aug/01/australian-greens-senator-lidia-thorpe-calls-queen-coloniser-while-being-sworn-into-parliament|date=August 1, 2022| title=Australian senator calls the Queen a coloniser while being sworn in to parliament |last=Butler |first=Josh |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220801202621/https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2022/aug/01/australian-greens-senator-lidia-thorpe-calls-queen-coloniser-while-being-sworn-into-parliament |archive-date=August 1, 2022}}</ref>

=== Resignation from Greens deputy leadership ===
On 20 October 2022, Thorpe was forced to resign from her position as Greens' deputy leader in the Senate, shortly after [[Australian Broadcasting Corporation|ABC News]] revealed that in 2021 she had dated the ex-president of the [[Rebels Motorcycle Club|Rebels outlaw bikie gang]], Dean Martin. At the time of the relationship, she had held the justice portfolio for the Greens and had been serving on the joint parliamentary law enforcement committee, so had been privy to confidential briefings about bikie gangs and [[organised crime]]. Thorpe had not disclosed the relationship, and it was only revealed when her staff notified party leader Adam Bandt's office and an independent parliamentary authority. Her staff became aware of the relationship in mid-2021. In August 2021, when confidential law enforcement committee briefing documents concerning bikie gangs arrived in her office hours after Thorpe had met Martin, one of her staffers urged her to inform Bandt, but she failed to do so. She told the staffer that "she was being really careful": she used [[encrypted]] social media to communicate with Martin, conversations were deleted weekly, and they never met at either one's home. The matter was referred to the [[Australian Federal Police]]. Thorpe said that she continues to be friends with Martin.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.news.com.au/breaking-news/bombshell-as-bandt-seeks-greens-senators-mresignation/news-story/adf3151b217081f68291330ff6619e61

Following the revelations, Thorpe faces a censure motion in the Senate. Senator [[Pauline Hanson]] called for her to resign, while [[Australian Labor Party|ALP]] senator [[Helen Polley]], the head of the joint parliamentary law enforcement committee, of which Thorpe had been a member, said, with regard to Thorpe's position as a senator: "she should consider if it's the right place for her."<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/lidia-thorpe-to-face-censure-motion-amid-calls-to-resign-from-senate-over-bikie-relationship/8kanukb8y |title= Lidia Thorpe to face censure motion amid calls to resign from Senate over bikie relationship |website=SBS News |date=21 October 2022 |access-date=22 October 2022}}</ref>

Thorpe has been critical of the ''[[Uluru Statement from the Heart]]'', believing there should be a [[Indigenous treaties in Australia|treaty]] before an [[Indigenous voice to government]]. Thorpe led a walk-out of the Uluru convention, believing that it was "hijacked by Aboriginal corporations and establishment appointments and did not reflect the aspirations of ordinary Indigenous people".<ref>{{cite news |last1=Grand |first1=Chip Le |title=Without treaty, incoming senator can't feel part of 'Team Australia' |url=https://www.smh.com.au/national/without-treaty-incoming-senator-can-t-feel-part-of-team-australia-20200625-p55649.html |access-date=5 September 2020 |work=The Sydney Morning Herald |date=25 June 2020 |language=en}}</ref>

Rathaus (Rutherglen)

2022-01-01T23:45:19Z

Crowsus: /* Beschreibung */ link

[[Datei:Rutherglen Town Hall 2016-02-28 view from west.jpg|mini|Rathaus von Rutherglen]]
Das '''Rathaus von Rutherglen''', englisch '''Rutherglen Town Hall''', ist das [[Rathaus]] der [[Schottland|schottischen]] Stadt [[Rutherglen]] am Nordwestrand der [[Unitary Authority|Council Area]] [[South Lanarkshire]]. 1971 wurde das Bauwerk in die [[Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest|schottischen Denkmallisten]] in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen.<ref name=list>{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=33563}}</ref>

== Geschichte ==
Die Bauwerksgeschichte reicht bis in das [[Mittelalter]] zurück. Durch die über Jahrhunderte andauernde Weiterentwicklung des Gebäudes ist heute schwer nachvollziehbar, welche Gebäudeteile aus welcher Epoche stammen. Unter anderem wurden Fragmente einer ehemaligen Kirche eingearbeitet. Der Turm wurde im Zuge einer Überarbeitung im Jahre 1710 aufgestockt. Die Turmglocke wurde 1635 von ''Michael Burgerhuys'' aus dem niederländischen [[Middelburg]] gefertigt. 1841 standen drei Turmuhren in der Umgebung zum Verkauf. Eine dieser Uhren wurde für das Rathaus von Rutherglen erworben.<ref name=list/> Im Rahmen einer archäologischen Untersuchung im Zuge des Abbruchs eines Anbaus aus dem Jahre 1967 wurden im Jahre 2002 Scherben aus dem 14. bis 16. Jahrhundert gefunden.<ref>{{Canmore|161399|Rathaus von Rutherglen}}</ref>

Weite Teile des heutigen Rathauses wurden nach einem Entwurf des schottischen Architekten [[Charles Wilson (Architekt)|Charles Wilson]] zwischen 1862 und 1863 erbaut.<ref name=list/>

== Beschreibung ==
Das Rathaus steht an der ''Main Street'' am Nordrand von Rutherglen rechts des [[Rutherglen Tower]]s und direkt gegenüber einem dritten denkmalgeschützten Gebäude: die [[St Columbkille’s Roman Catholic Church]]. Sein Mauerwerk besteht im Wesentlichen aus Steinquadern. Der markante Turm ist asymmetrisch aufgebaut. Er ist über ein Portal an der Ostseite zugänglich. Seine Fensteröffnungen schließen mit [[Rundbogen|Rundbögen]]. Auf den 1710 hinzugefügten auskragenden [[Tourelle|Ecktourellen]] sitzen teils vergoldete Kugeln mit [[Wetterfahne]]n. Die Dächer sind mit Schiefer eingedeckt.<ref name=list/>

[[Datei:Rutherglen Tower 2016-02-28 11.34.13 crop.jpg|mini|Rutherglen Tower]]
Der '''Rutherglen Tower''' ist ein ehemaliger Kirchturm in der [[Schottland|schottischen]] Stadt [[Rutherglen]] in der [[Unitary Authority|Council Area]] [[South Lanarkshire]]. 1971 wurde das Bauwerk in die [[Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest|schottischen Denkmallisten]] in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen.<ref name=list>{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=33563}}</ref>

== Geschichte ==
Am Standort befand sich im Mittelalter eine Marienkirche. Im 14. oder 15. Jahrhundert wurde der Glockenturm hinzugefügt. Hierbei wurden [[Romanik|romanische]] Fragmente in sein Mauerwerk integriert. Die Ruinen der Marienkirche liegen links des Turms neben der heutigen [[Rutherglen Old Parish Church]]. Die Glocke fertigte ''Michael Burgerhuys'' aus dem niederländischen [[Middelburg]]. Im Jahre 1710 wurde der Turm aufgestockt und überarbeitet.<ref name=list/><ref>{{Canmore|268490}}</ref>

== Beschreibung ==
Der Turm steht abseits der ''Main Street'' neben dem [[Rathaus (Rutherglen)|Rathaus von Rutherglen]] und direkt gegenüber einem dritten denkmalgeschützten Gebäude: die [[St Columbkille’s Roman Catholic Church]], im Norden der Stadt. Er weist einen quadratischen Grundriss auf. Allseitig stützen [[Strebewerk|Strebepfeiler]] das Bauwerk. Das Eingangsportal befindet sich an der Ostseite. Darüber ist eine [[Rundbogen|rundbögige]] Öffnung in das Schichtenmauerwerk eingelassen. An der Südseite ist eine Turmuhr verbaut. Der spitze Helm stammt aus dem Jahre 1710. Er ist mit Schiefer eingedeckt und allseitig mit [[Lukarne]]n gestaltet. Der Helm schließt mit einer vergoldeten Kugel und aufsitzender [[Wetterfahne]].<ref name=list/>

St Columbkille’s Roman Catholic Church

2022-01-01T23:41:30Z

Crowsus: link

[[Datei:St Columbkille's Church, Rutherglen - geograph.org.uk - 1138084.jpg|mini|St Columbkille’s Roman Catholic Church]]
Die '''St Columbkille’s Roman Catholic Church''' ist ein römisch-katholisches Kirchengebäude in der [[Schottland|schottischen]] Stadt [[Rutherglen]] in der [[Unitary Authority|Council Area]] [[South Lanarkshire]]. 1992 wurde das Bauwerk in die [[Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest|schottischen Denkmallisten]] in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen.<ref name=list>{{historic-scotland|typ=LB|ID=33567}}</ref>

== Geschichte ==
Im Jahre 1851 wurde die Kirchengemeinde etabliert. Sie nutzte eine nahe der heutigen gelegenen Kirche. Mit dem Zuzug irischer Einwanderer und der Binnenimmigration aus den [[Highlands]] bot das Gebäude in den 1930er Jahren nicht mehr genug Raum für die angewachsene Gemeinde. Es wurde ein Kirchenneubau mit 600 Sitzplätzen beschlossen. Nach einem Entwurf von [[Gillespie, Kidd & Coia]] wurde die heutige St Columbkille’s Roman Catholic Church zwischen 1934 und 1940 erbaut. Im selben Jahr wurde sie konsekriert.<ref name=list/><ref>[http://www.stcolumbkille.org.uk/church/history/ Informationen der Kirchengemeinde]</ref>

== Beschreibung ==
Die St Columbkille’s Church steht an der Einmündung der ''Kirkwood Street'' in die ''Main Street'' im Norden von Rutherglen, direkt gegenüber den beiden anderen (älteren) Denkmal Kategorie  A-geschützten Gebäuden der Stadt: das [[Rathaus (Rutherglen)|Rathaus von Rutherglen]] und der [[Rutherglen Tower]]. Das Mauerwerk der länglichen roten Backsteinkirche ist teils mit [[Naturstein]] abgesetzt. Straßenseitig zeigt sich eine ernst und massiv wirkende Fassade mit fünf [[Rundbogen|rundbögigen]] Aussparungen mit länglichen, schmalen Fenstern. Auf den äußeren sowie der Zentralachse sind Holzportale eingelassen. Oberhalb der Bögen zeigen fünf Skulpturen von [[Archibald Dawson]] in Aussparungen Christus und die vier Evangelisten. Die Seitenfassaden sind komplex aufgebaut. Die teilweise zu [[Drillingsfenster|Drillingen]] gekuppelten Rundbogenfenster zeigen Inspirationen aus der [[Romanik|romanische Architektur]]. Das schmale, kurze Querhaus ist eher angedeutet. Ein schiefergedecktes [[Satteldach]] sitzt auf.<ref name=list/>

Zu den umliegenden Ortschaften zählen [[East Kilbride]] und [[Hamilton (South Lanarkshire)|Hamilton]].

== Geschichte ==
Die Legende zur Gründung Rutherglens beruft sich auf „Reuther“, einen kaledonischen Clanchef, der über die Ländereien geherrscht haben soll. [[Beda Venerabilis|Beda der Ehrwürdige]] identifizierte diesen als „Reuda“, unter dem um das Jahr 350 Übersiedlungen von der irischen Insel stattfanden. Ob diese Personen jedoch überhaupt einst existierten, ist nicht gesichert. Gesichert ist hingegen, dass sich bereits früh eine Siedlung am Standort befunden hat.<ref name=zaheler>''Rutherglen'' in: F. H. Groome (Hrsg.): ''Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland: A Survey of Scottish Topography, Statistical, Biographical and Historical'', Grange Publishing Works, Edinburgh, 1882–1885.</ref>

Bereits im Jahre 1126 erhielt Rutherglen die Rechte eines [[Borough|Royal Burghs]]. Damit zählt Rutherglen zu den frühesten schottischen Burghs. In der Folge entwickelte sich die Stadt als bedeutendes Handelszentrum, wurde in ihrer Entwicklung jedoch bald von Glasgow überflügelt. 1679 verlasen [[Covenanters|Covenanter]] die ''Deklaration von Rutherglen'' und verloren nur drei Wochen später in der Nähe die [[Schlacht von Bothwell Bridge]].<ref name=scogaz/>

In vergangenen Jahrhunderten zählten die Tuchherstellung durch handbetriebene Webstühle und der Kohlebergbau zu den Haupttätigkeiten in Rutherglen. Im frühen 19. Jahrhundert siedelte sich eine Werft am Rutherglenschen Clyde-Ufer an. Des Weiteren wurden dort Seife und Stahl produziert.<ref name=scogaz/>

Im Zuge der Landreform 1975 wurde Rutherglen zu Glasgow eingemeindet. Mit der folgenden Reform 1996 wurde die Kleinstadt dann der Council Area South Lanarkshire zugeschlagen.<ref name=scogaz/>

== Verkehr ==
Im Glasgower Umland gelegen, ist Rutherglen gut an das Straßennetz angeschlossen. Auf dem Stadtgebiet verlaufen die [[A724 road|A724]], die [[A728 road|A728]], die [[A730 road|A730]] sowie die [[A749 road|A749]]. Die Autobahn [[M74 motorway|M74]] tangiert die Kleinstadt im Norden.

Ende der 1840er Jahre erhielt Rutherglen einen Bahnhof der [[Caledonian Railway]].<ref name=zaheler/> Die Bahnstrecke ist heute Teil der [[West Coast Main Line]] zwischen [[Glasgow]] und [[London]].<ref>[https://canmore.org.uk/site/163551/uddingston-clyde-viaduct Informationen der ''Royal Society on the Ancient and Historical Monuments in Scotland'']</ref> Der Bahnhof wird bis heute als Nahverkehrshalt betrieben.<ref>[https://www.scotrail.co.uk/plan-your-journey/stations-and-facilities/rut Informationen von ScotRail]</ref> Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts wurde Rutherglen an das elektrifizierte Glasgower Straßenbahnnetz angeschlossen.<ref name=scogaz/>

'''Glasgow Science Centre''' is a visitor attraction located in the [[Clyde Waterfront Regeneration]] area on the south bank of the [[River Clyde]] in [[Glasgow]], Scotland. [[Queen Elizabeth II]] opened Glasgow Science Centre on 5 July 2001. It is one of Scotland's most popular paid-for visitor attractions.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-35690252 |title=Visitor numbers up at Scots attractions |publisher=BBC News |date=1 March 2016}}</ref> It is a purpose-built [[science centre]] composed of three principal buildings: Science Mall, [[Glasgow Tower]] and an [[IMAX]] [[Movie theater|cinema]]. The Scottish tourist board, [[VisitScotland]], awarded Glasgow Science Centre a five star rating in the visitor attraction category.<ref>{{cite web | title=Glasgow Science Centre on Visitscotland.com | url=http://guide.visitscotland.com/vs/guide/5,en,SCH1/objectId,SIG48295Svs,curr,GBP,season,at1,selectedEntry,home/home.html | accessdate=24 July 2007 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927004233/http://guide.visitscotland.com/vs/guide/5%2Cen%2CSCH1/objectId%2CSIG48295Svs%2Ccurr%2CGBP%2Cseason%2Cat1%2CselectedEntry%2Chome/home.html | archivedate=27 September 2007 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> As well as its main location, Glasgow Science Centre also manages the visitor centre at [[Whitelee Wind Farm]], which opened to the public in 2009.

==Science Mall==
[[File:Glasgow Science Centre from the west.jpg|thumb|330px|Glasgow Science Centre from the west]]
The largest of the three main, titanium-clad buildings takes a crescent shape structure and houses a Science Mall. In architectural terms it represents the canted hull of a ship, a reference to the adjacent 'canting basin', where vessels were brought to have the marine growth removed from their hulls. Internally, there are three floors of over 250 science-learning exhibits. As is usual for science centres, the exhibits aim to encourage interaction, and can be used or played with as part of the informal learning experience the centre aims to deliver. The building was designed by BDP.

On Floor 1, amongst the many interactive exhibits that demonstrate scientific principles, visitors can access a Science Show Theatre and the Glasgow Science Centre Planetarium.<ref>{{cite web| title=MERO Construction website on the Glasgow Science Centre| url=http://www.merouk.co.uk/structures/2001gsc.htm| accessdate=26 April 2008| deadurl=yes| archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080410114702/http://www.merouk.co.uk/structures/2001gsc.htm| archivedate=10 April 2008| df=dmy-all}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title=Glasgow Science Centre webpage on the Science Mall | url=http://www.glasgowsciencecentre.org/sciencemall_4.aspx | accessdate=26 April 2008 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080509093046/http://www.glasgowsciencecentre.org/sciencemall_4.aspx | archivedate=9 May 2008 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> The [[planetarium]] contains a [[zeiss projector|Zeiss]] [[Planetarium#Traditional electromechanical.2Foptical projectors|optical-mechanical projector]] that projects images of the night sky onto a 15m diameter dome.<ref>{{cite web | title=Zeiss Press release| url=http://www.zeiss.com/c12567b00038cd75/Contents-Frame/ee1fd0d05bbcc39bc1256b6f003c7d01 | archive-url=https://archive.is/20130210003926/http://www.zeiss.com/c12567b00038cd75/Contents-Frame/ee1fd0d05bbcc39bc1256b6f003c7d01 | dead-url=yes | archive-date=10 February 2013 |accessdate= 26 April 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title=Zeiss installation list| url=http://www.zeiss.com/c12567b00038cd75/Contents-Frame/cd498b133073712741256a76004e9e4b |accessdate= 26 April 2008}}</ref> There is an area specifically aimed at young children, called The Big Explorer.

On Floor 2, visitors can explore opportunities in STEM careers in the My World of Work Live interactive exhibition space. There is also The Lab, primarily used as an educational workshop space.

Floor 3 was refurbished in 2012 and reopened to the public on 28 March 2013. It now houses an interactive exhibition about human health and wellbeing in the 21st century, called BodyWorks. Visitors are invited to consider their bodies, health and lifestyle from a new perspective through 115 interactive exhibits, research capsules and live laboratory experiences.<ref>{{cite web| title=What is BodyWorks?| url=http://www.glasgowsciencecentre.org/bodyworks-newsroom/what-is-bodyworks.html| accessdate=8 April 2015| deadurl=yes| archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924022532/http://www.glasgowsciencecentre.org/bodyworks-newsroom/what-is-bodyworks.html| archivedate=24 September 2015| df=dmy-all}}</ref>

The Ground Floor of the Science Mall contains the ticket desk, cafes, gift shop, and a cloakroom. There are a number of flexible room spaces on the Ground Floor that are used for a variety of educational and corporate purposes: an education space called The Egg; a lecture-theatre space called The Auditorium; and the Clyde Suite, a multi-purpose function space. Access to Glasgow Tower for the public is also via the Ground Floor.

==Glasgow Tower==

{{main|Glasgow Tower}}
The Glasgow Tower was designed to be the tallest freely-rotating tower in the world. It missed its opening date in 2001 and was plagued by problems since then. It has been closed for over 80% of its life,{{citation needed|date=August 2014}} and was closed from August 2010<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-22509056|title=BBC News - Faulty tower: Glasgow's £10m white elephant|work=[[BBC Online]]|accessdate=3 June 2013|date=3 June 2013}}</ref> until July 2014.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-28366052|title=BBC News - Glasgow Science Centre tower reopens|date=19 July 2014|work=[[BBC Online]]|accessdate=19 July 2014}}</ref>

==History==
[[File:Glasgow garden festival overhead.jpg|thumb|270px|right|View of the [[Glasgow Garden Festival]] site]]
Opened to the public in June 2001, Glasgow Science Centre is part of the ongoing redevelopment of [[Pacific Quay]], an area which was once a cargo port known as Prince's Dock.<ref>[https://www.theglasgowstory.com/image/?inum=TGSE00673&t=2 Glasgow Harbour 1932 (Burrell Collection Photo Library)], The Glasgow Story</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Science on the Clyde |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/1394637.stm |publisher=BBC News |accessdate=26 April 2008 |date=19 June 2001}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title=Glasgow Architecture website on Pacific Quay | url=http://www.glasgowarchitecture.co.uk/pacific_quay.htm |accessdate= 26 April 2008}}</ref> The redevelopment started with the [[Glasgow Garden Festival]] in 1988. As with the other [[National Garden Festival]]s, the {{convert|100|acre|km2}} Glasgow site was intended to be sold off for housing development, but due to a housing slump in 1987, the developers were unable to develop the land as they intended, and the majority of the site remained derelict for years. Parts were finally redeveloped for the Science Centre and also [[Pacific Quay]], including new headquarters for [[BBC Scotland]] and [[Scottish Television]], opened in 2007. The Clydesdale Bank Tower was dismantled and re-erected in [[Rhyl]] in North [[Wales]], however its spiritual successor came in the form of the [[Glasgow Tower]] as part of Science Centre complex, which stands on approximately the same spot.

The architects of the Glasgow Science Centre were [[Building Design Partnership]], however the Glasgow Tower was originally designed by the architect Richard Horden with engineering design by [[Buro Happold]].<ref name="hcla.co.uk">{{cite web | title=Horden Cherry Lee Architects | url=http://www.hcla.co.uk/projects/?prorub1=ap&prorub2=5&pid=67

==Funding issues==
In June 2004, it was announced that about a fifth of the workforce were to be made redundant following the creation of a funding deal with the [[Scottish Executive]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Redundancies at science centre |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/3851349.stm |publisher=BBC News |accessdate=2 July 2008 |date=29 June 2004}}</ref> In June 2008, the leader of the [[Scottish Liberal Democrats]], [[Nicol Stephen]], stated that Glasgow Science Centre was facing a 40% cut in government funding.<ref>{{cite news |title=Science centre '40% funding cut' |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/glasgow_and_west/7437912.stm |publisher=BBC News |accessdate=2 July 2008 |date=5 June 2008}}</ref> [[Prime Minister]] [[Gordon Brown]] commented on this issue during [[Prime Minister's Questions]] saying, "It's unfortunate in Glasgow that as a result of the [[Scottish National Party|SNP]], funding has been cut, and they will live to regret that".<ref>{{cite web | title=Evening Times News Report | url=http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/news/display.var.2376867.0.0.php|accessdate= 3 July 2008}}</ref> Although funding for the Scottish Science Centres as a whole has actually increased, it is now being split between four centres using a formula based on visitor numbers, and Glasgow is the only centre to face a reduction in budget.<ref>{{cite web | title=SNP News Release | url=http://www.snp.org/node/14009 | accessdate=3 July 2008 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081012181805/http://www.snp.org/node/14009 | archivedate=12 October 2008 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> This led to the announcement in July 2008 that 28 full-time jobs were to be cut as a direct consequence of the cuts "in order to secure Glasgow Science Centre's future", according to the Chief Executive, Kirk Ramsay.<ref>{{cite news |title=Troubled science centre cuts jobs |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/glasgow_and_west/7487335.stm |publisher=BBC News |accessdate=3 July 2008 |date=3 July 2008}}</ref>

==In the media==
Glasgow Science Centre is located in the [[Pacific Quay]] area, and as such, is surrounded by the media centres that form the Digital Media Quarter, a [[Scottish Enterprise]] development initiative,<ref>{{cite web | title=Digital Media Quarter webpage | url=http://www.pacificquaydmq.com/|accessdate= 10 August 2009}}</ref> With the opening of the new [[STV (TV network)|STV]] headquarters in June 2006 and the beginning of broadcast programming from [[BBC Pacific Quay]] in the summer of 2004, it can be expected that more programming will be filmed in the area.

In the [[CBeebies]] television programme ''[[Nina and the Neurons]]'', the title character Nina is a [[neuroscientist]] who works at Glasgow Science Centre.<ref>{{cite web | title=CBeebies Nina and the Neurons webpage | url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/grownups/about/programmes/ninaandtheneurons.shtml | accessdate=28 April 2008 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080514133942/http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/grownups/about/programmes/ninaandtheneurons.shtml | archivedate=14 May 2008 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> In reality, Nina is played by the actress [[Katrina Bryan]] who is not a staff member at Glasgow Science Centre.

'''Glasgow Science Centre''' is a visitor attraction located in the [[Clyde Waterfront Regeneration]] area on the south bank of the [[River Clyde]] in [[Glasgow]], Scotland. [[Queen Elizabeth II]] opened Glasgow Science Centre on 5 June 2001. It is one of Scotland's most popular paid-for visitor attractions.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-35690252 |title=Visitor numbers up at Scots attractions |publisher=BBC News |date=1 March 2016}}</ref> It is a purpose-built [[science centre]] composed of three principal buildings: Science Mall, [[Glasgow Tower]] and an [[IMAX]] [[Movie theater|cinema]]. The Scottish tourist board, [[VisitScotland]], awarded Glasgow Science Centre a five star rating in the visitor attraction category.<ref>{{cite web | title=Glasgow Science Centre on Visitscotland.com | url=http://guide.visitscotland.com/vs/guide/5,en,SCH1/objectId,SIG48295Svs,curr,GBP,season,at1,selectedEntry,home/home.html | accessdate=24 July 2007 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927004233/http://guide.visitscotland.com/vs/guide/5%2Cen%2CSCH1/objectId%2CSIG48295Svs%2Ccurr%2CGBP%2Cseason%2Cat1%2CselectedEntry%2Chome/home.html | archivedate=27 September 2007 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> As well as its main location, Glasgow Science Centre also manages the visitor centre at [[Whitelee Wind Farm]], which opened to the public in 2009.

==Science Mall==
[[File:Glasgow Science Centre from the west.jpg|thumb|330px|Glasgow Science Centre from the west]]
The largest of the three main, titanium-clad buildings takes a crescent shape structure and houses a Science Mall. In architectural terms it represents the canted hull of a ship, a reference to the adjacent 'canting basin', where vessels were brought to have the marine growth removed from their hulls. Internally, there are three floors of over 250 science-learning exhibits. As is usual for science centres, the exhibits aim to encourage interaction, and can be used or played with as part of the informal learning experience the centre aims to deliver. The building was designed by BDP.

On Floor 1, amongst the many interactive exhibits that demonstrate scientific principles, visitors can access a Science Show Theatre and the Glasgow Science Centre Planetarium.<ref>{{cite web| title=MERO Construction website on the Glasgow Science Centre| url=http://www.merouk.co.uk/structures/2001gsc.htm| accessdate=26 April 2008| deadurl=yes| archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080410114702/http://www.merouk.co.uk/structures/2001gsc.htm| archivedate=10 April 2008| df=dmy-all}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title=Glasgow Science Centre webpage on the Science Mall | url=http://www.glasgowsciencecentre.org/sciencemall_4.aspx | accessdate=26 April 2008 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080509093046/http://www.glasgowsciencecentre.org/sciencemall_4.aspx | archivedate=9 May 2008 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> The [[planetarium]] contains a [[zeiss projector|Zeiss]] [[Planetarium#Traditional electromechanical.2Foptical projectors|optical-mechanical projector]] that projects images of the night sky onto a 15m diameter dome.<ref>{{cite web | title=Zeiss Press release| url=http://www.zeiss.com/c12567b00038cd75/Contents-Frame/ee1fd0d05bbcc39bc1256b6f003c7d01 | archive-url=https://archive.is/20130210003926/http://www.zeiss.com/c12567b00038cd75/Contents-Frame/ee1fd0d05bbcc39bc1256b6f003c7d01 | dead-url=yes | archive-date=10 February 2013 |accessdate= 26 April 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title=Zeiss installation list| url=http://www.zeiss.com/c12567b00038cd75/Contents-Frame/cd498b133073712741256a76004e9e4b |accessdate= 26 April 2008}}</ref> There is an area specifically aimed at young children, called The Big Explorer.

On Floor 2, visitors can explore opportunities in STEM careers in the My World of Work Live interactive exhibition space. There is also The Lab, primarily used as an educational workshop space.

Floor 3 was refurbished in 2012 and reopened to the public on 28 March 2013. It now houses an interactive exhibition about human health and wellbeing in the 21st century, called BodyWorks. Visitors are invited to consider their bodies, health and lifestyle from a new perspective through 115 interactive exhibits, research capsules and live laboratory experiences.<ref>{{cite web| title=What is BodyWorks?| url=http://www.glasgowsciencecentre.org/bodyworks-newsroom/what-is-bodyworks.html| accessdate=8 April 2015| deadurl=yes| archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924022532/http://www.glasgowsciencecentre.org/bodyworks-newsroom/what-is-bodyworks.html| archivedate=24 September 2015| df=dmy-all}}</ref>

The Ground Floor of the Science Mall contains the ticket desk, cafes, gift shop, and a cloakroom. There are a number of flexible room spaces on the Ground Floor that are used for a variety of educational and corporate purposes: an education space called The Egg; a lecture-theatre space called The Auditorium; and the Clyde Suite, a multi-purpose function space. Access to Glasgow Tower for the public is also via the Ground Floor.

==Glasgow Tower==

{{main|Glasgow Tower}}
The Glasgow Tower was designed to be the tallest freely-rotating tower in the world. It missed its opening date in 2001 and was plagued by problems since then. It has been closed for over 80% of its life,{{citation needed|date=August 2014}} and was closed from August 2010<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-22509056|title=BBC News - Faulty tower: Glasgow's £10m white elephant|work=[[BBC Online]]|accessdate=3 June 2013|date=3 June 2013}}</ref> until July 2014.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-28366052|title=BBC News - Glasgow Science Centre tower reopens|date=19 July 2014|work=[[BBC Online]]|accessdate=19 July 2014}}</ref>

==IMAX Cinema==

The IMAX cinema was the first IMAX cinema to be built in Scotland. The single auditorium seats 370 in front of a rectangular screen measuring {{convert|80|ft|m}} by {{convert|60|ft|m}} and has the capability to show [[3-D film|3D films]] as well as standard 2D films in IMAX format.<ref>{{cite web | title=Big Movie Zone | url=http://www.bigmoviezone.com/txshows/theaters/index.html?uniq=695 | accessdate=17 September 2008 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080604041706/http://www.bigmoviezone.com/txshows/theaters/index.html?uniq=695 | archivedate=4 June 2008 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> It opened to the public in October 2000, and premiered the first film, entitled "Dolphins", several months prior to the opening of the two other buildings.<ref>{{cite web | title=Millennium Commission News October 2000 | url=http://www.millennium.gov.uk/cgi-bin/item.cgi?id=1184&d=11&h=24&f=46&dateformat=%25o-%25B-%25Y | accessdate=24 July 2007 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070928010424/http://www.millennium.gov.uk/cgi-bin/item.cgi?id=1184&d=11&h=24&f=46&dateformat=%25o-%25B-%25Y | archivedate=28 September 2007 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> On 6 September 2013, [[Cineworld]] agreed a 10-year lease to operate the IMAX cinema and opened a [[Starbucks]] on site.{{citation needed|date=August 2014}}

==History==
[[File:Glasgow garden festival overhead.jpg|thumb|270px|right|View of the [[Glasgow Garden Festival]] site]]
Opened to the public in June 2001, Glasgow Science Centre is part of the ongoing redevelopment of [[Pacific Quay]], an area which was once a cargo port known as Prince's Dock.<ref>{{cite news |title=Science on the Clyde |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/1394637.stm |publisher=BBC News |accessdate=26 April 2008 |date=19 June 2001}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title=Glasgow Architecture website on Pacific Quay | url=http://www.glasgowarchitecture.co.uk/pacific_quay.htm |accessdate= 26 April 2008}}</ref> The redevelopment started with the [[Glasgow Garden Festival]] in 1988. As with the other [[National Garden Festival]]s, the {{convert|100|acre|km2}} Glasgow site was intended to be sold off for housing development, but due to a housing slump in 1987, the developers were unable to develop the land as they intended, and the majority of the site remained derelict for years. Parts were finally redeveloped for the Science Centre and also [[Pacific Quay]], including new headquarters for [[BBC Scotland]] and [[Scottish Television]], opened in 2007. The Clydesdale Bank Tower was dismantled and re-erected in [[Rhyl]] in North [[Wales]], however its spiritual successor came in the form of the [[Glasgow Tower]] as part of Science Centre complex, which stands on approximately the same spot.

The architects of the Glasgow Science Centre were [[Building Design Partnership]], however the Glasgow Tower was originally designed by the architect Richard Horden with engineering design by [[Buro Happold]].<ref name="hcla.co.uk">{{cite web | title=Horden Cherry Lee Architects | url=http://www.hcla.co.uk/projects/?prorub1=ap&prorub2=5&pid=67

==Funding issues==
In June 2004, it was announced that about a fifth of the workforce were to be made redundant following the creation of a funding deal with the [[Scottish Executive]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Redundancies at science centre |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/3851349.stm |publisher=BBC News |accessdate=2 July 2008 |date=29 June 2004}}</ref> In June 2008, the leader of the [[Scottish Liberal Democrats]], [[Nicol Stephen]], stated that Glasgow Science Centre was facing a 40% cut in government funding.<ref>{{cite news |title=Science centre '40% funding cut' |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/glasgow_and_west/7437912.stm |publisher=BBC News |accessdate=2 July 2008 |date=5 June 2008}}</ref> [[Prime Minister]] [[Gordon Brown]] commented on this issue during [[Prime Minister's Questions]] saying, "It's unfortunate in Glasgow that as a result of the [[Scottish National Party|SNP]], funding has been cut, and they will live to regret that".<ref>{{cite web | title=Evening Times News Report | url=http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/news/display.var.2376867.0.0.php|accessdate= 3 July 2008}}</ref> Although funding for the Scottish Science Centres as a whole has actually increased, it is now being split between four centres using a formula based on visitor numbers, and Glasgow is the only centre to face a reduction in budget.<ref>{{cite web | title=SNP News Release | url=http://www.snp.org/node/14009 | accessdate=3 July 2008 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081012181805/http://www.snp.org/node/14009 | archivedate=12 October 2008 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> This led to the announcement in July 2008 that 28 full-time jobs were to be cut as a direct consequence of the cuts "in order to secure Glasgow Science Centre's future", according to the Chief Executive, Kirk Ramsay.<ref>{{cite news |title=Troubled science centre cuts jobs |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/glasgow_and_west/7487335.stm |publisher=BBC News |accessdate=3 July 2008 |date=3 July 2008}}</ref>

==In the media==
Glasgow Science Centre is located in the [[Pacific Quay]] area, and as such, is surrounded by the media centres that form the Digital Media Quarter, a [[Scottish Enterprise]] development initiative,<ref>{{cite web | title=Digital Media Quarter webpage | url=http://www.pacificquaydmq.com/|accessdate= 10 August 2009}}</ref> With the opening of the new [[STV (TV network)|STV]] headquarters in June 2006 and the beginning of broadcast programming from [[BBC Pacific Quay]] in the summer of 2004, it can be expected that more programming will be filmed in the area.

In the [[CBeebies]] television programme ''[[Nina and the Neurons]]'', the title character Nina is a [[neuroscientist]] who works at Glasgow Science Centre.<ref>{{cite web | title=CBeebies Nina and the Neurons webpage | url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/grownups/about/programmes/ninaandtheneurons.shtml | accessdate=28 April 2008 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080514133942/http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/grownups/about/programmes/ninaandtheneurons.shtml | archivedate=14 May 2008 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> In reality, Nina is played by the actress [[Katrina Bryan]] who is not a staff member at Glasgow Science Centre.

The '''New Town''' is a central area of [[Edinburgh]], the capital of Scotland. A masterpiece of [[city planning]], it was built in stages between 1767 and around 1850, and retains much of its original [[Neoclassicism|neo-classical]] and [[Georgian architecture|Georgian]] period architecture. Its most famous street is [[Princes Street]], facing [[Edinburgh Castle]] and the Old Town across the geographical depression of the former [[Nor Loch]]. Together with the [[Old Town, Edinburgh|Old Town]], the New Town was designated a [[UNESCO]] [[World Heritage Site]] in 1995.
{{Wide image|Edinburgh New Town Panorama.jpg|600px|Edinburgh's New Town, viewed from Edinburgh Castle. Princes Street and the Princes Street Gardens are visible in the foreground.}}

==Preparing the ground==
[[File:Edinburgh map.png|thumb|left|240px|Map of the city, showing the New Town (''in brown''), the [[Old Town, Edinburgh|Old Town]], and the [[West End, Edinburgh|West End]].]]
The idea of a New Town was first suggested in the late 17th century when the Duke of Albany and York (later [[James VII of Scotland|King James VII and II]]), when resident Royal Commissioner at Holyrood, encouraged the idea of having an extended [[regality]] to the north of the city and a North Bridge. He gave the city a grant:<blockquote>That, when they should have occasion to enlarge their city by purchasing ground without the town, or to build bridges or arches for the accomplishing of the same, not only were the proprietors of such lands obliged to part with the same on reasonable terms, but when in possession thereof, they are to be erected into a regality in favour of the citizens.</blockquote>It is possible that, with such patronage, the New Town may have been built many years earlier than it was but, in 1682, the Duke left the city and became King in 1685, only to lose the throne in 1688.<ref> {{cite book | last1 = Grant | first1 = James | title = Old and New Edinburgh | volume = 2 }}</ref>

The decision to construct a New Town was taken by the city fathers, after overcrowding inside the [[Old Town, Edinburgh|Old Town]] city walls reached breaking point and to prevent an exodus of wealthy citizens from the city to London.<ref name = Glendinning>{{cite book |last=Glendinning and MacKechnie|title=Scottish Architecture|publisher=Thames and Hudson|year=2004|isbn=0-500-20374-1|page=120}}; citing pamphlet entitled 'Proposals for Carrying on Certain Public Works in the City of Edinburgh'</ref> The [[Age of Enlightenment]] had arrived in Edinburgh, and the outdated city fabric did not suit the professional and merchant classes who lived there. [[Lord Provost]] [[George Drummond]] succeeded in extending the boundary of the [[Royal Burgh]] to encompass the fields to the north of the [[Nor Loch]], the heavily polluted body of water which occupied the valley immediately north of the city. A scheme to drain the Loch was put into action, although the process was not fully completed until 1817. Crossing points were built to access the new land; the [[North Bridge, Edinburgh|North Bridge]] in 1772, and the Earthen Mound, which began as a tip for material excavated during construction of the New Town. [[The Mound]], as it is known today, reached its present proportions in the 1830s.

As the successive stages of the New Town were developed, the rich moved northwards from cramped tenements in narrow closes into grand [[Georgian architecture|Georgian]] homes on wide roads. However, the poor remained in the Old Town.

==The First New Town==
[[File:1768 James Craig Map of New Town, Edinburgh, Scotland (First Plan of New Town) - Geographicus - Edinburgh-craig-1768.jpg|thumb|380px|Plan for the New Town by James Craig (1768)]]
A design competition was held in January 1766 to find a suitably modern layout for the new suburb. It was won by 26-year-old [[James Craig (architect)|James Craig]], who, following the natural contours of the land, proposed a simple axial grid, with a principal thoroughfare along the ridge linking two garden squares. Two other main roads were located downhill to the north and south with two minor streets between. Several [[mews]] off the minor streets provided stable lanes for the large homes. Completing the grid are three north-south cross streets.

Craig's original plan has not survived but it has been suggested that it is indicated on a map published by John Laurie in 1766.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://maps.nls.uk/view/74400229#zoom=5&lat=6936&lon=5735&layers=BT |title=A plan of Edinburgh and places adjacent |work=Counties of Scotland, 1580-1928 |publisher=National Library of Scotland |accessdate=2015-06-04 }}</ref> This map shows a diagonal layout with a central square reflecting a new era of civic Hanoverian British patriotism by echoing the design of the [[Union Flag]]. Both Princes Street and Queen Street are shown as double sided. A simpler revised design reflected the same spirit in the names of its streets and civic spaces.<ref name = Glendinning/>

===Street names===
[[File:The New Town from Edinburgh Castle.JPG|thumb|left|300px|View of the First New Town from [[Edinburgh Castle]], largely obscured by modern shopping developments]]
The principal street was named [[George Street, Edinburgh|George Street]], after the king at the time, [[George III of the United Kingdom|George III]]. Queen Street was to be located to the north, named after his wife, and St. Giles Street to the south, after the city's patron saint. [[St Andrew Square, Edinburgh|St Andrew Square]] and St. George's Square were the names chosen to represent the [[Act of Union 1707|union of Scotland and England]]. The idea was continued with the smaller Thistle Street (for Scotland's national emblem) between George Street and Queen Street, and [[Rose Street]] (for England's emblem) between George Street and Princes Street.

King George rejected the name St. Giles Street, [[Saint Giles|St Giles]] being the patron saint of lepers and also the name of a slum area or 'rookery' on the edge of the City of London. It was therefore renamed Princes Street after his sons. The name of St. George's Square was changed to [[Charlotte Square]], after [[Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz|the Queen]], to avoid confusion with the existing [[George Square, Edinburgh|George Square]] on the South Side of the Old Town. The westernmost blocks of Thistle Street were renamed Hill Street and Young Street, making Thistle Street half the length of Rose Street. The three streets completing the grid, Castle, Frederick and Hanover Streets, were named for the view of the castle, King George's father [[Frederick, Prince of Wales|Frederick]], and the name of the royal family respectively.

===Development===
Craig's proposals hit further problems when development began. Initially the exposed new site was unpopular, leading to a £20 premium being offered to the first builder on site. This was received by John Young who built Thistle Court, the first buildings in the New Town, at the east end of Thistle Street in 1767. Instead of building as a terrace as envisaged, he built a small courtyard.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.ewht.org.uk/thistle-court | title = Thistle Court | accessdate = 2012-03-01}}</ref> Doubts were overcome soon enough, and further construction started in the east with St. Andrew Square.

[[File:Charlottesq2.jpg|thumb|550px|center|Montage image of [[Robert Adam]]'s north side of Charlotte Square. [[Bute House]], official residence of the [[First Minister of Scotland]], is in the centre.]]
Craig had intended that the view along George Street be terminated by two large churches, situated at the outer edge of each square, on axis with George Street. Whilst the western church on Charlotte Square was built, at St Andrew Square the land behind the proposed church site was owned by [[Sir Lawrence Dundas, 1st Baronet|Sir Lawrence Dundas]]. He decided to build a town mansion here and commissioned a design from Sir [[William Chambers (architect)|William Chambers]]. The resulting [[Palladian architecture|Palladian]] mansion, known as [[Dundas House]], was completed in 1774. In 1825 it was acquired by the [[Royal Bank of Scotland]] and today is the [[registered office]] of the bank.. The forecourt of the building, with the equestrian monument to [[John Hope, 4th Earl of Hopetoun]], occupies the proposed church site. [[St Andrew's and St George's Church, Edinburgh|St. Andrew's Church]] had to be built on a site on George Street. The lack of a visual termination at the end of this street was remedied in 1823 with [[William Burn]]'s monument to [[Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville|Henry Dundas]].

[[File:Georgian buildings in Princes Street, Edinburgh.jpg|thumb|right|Surviving Georgian buildings in Princes Street]]
The first New Town was mainly completed by 1820, with the completion of Charlotte Square. This was built to a design by [[Robert Adam]], and was the only architecturally unified section of the New Town. Adam also produced a design for St. George's Church, although his design was superseded by that of [[Robert Reid (architect)|Robert Reid]]. The building, now known as West Register House, now houses part of the [[National Archives of Scotland]]. The north side of Charlotte Square features [[Bute House]], formerly the official residence of the [[Secretary of State for Scotland]] and, since the introduction of [[devolution]] in Scotland, the official residence of the [[First Minister of Scotland]].

A few small sections remained undeveloped at the time. In 1885 an unbuilt section of Queen Street (an open garden until that time), north of St Andrew Square, provided the site for the [[Scottish National Portrait Gallery]]. To the north-west, north of Charlotte Square, the land was part of the Earl of Moray's estate and a long-running boundary dispute with the [[Moray Estate]].<ref>Buildings of Scotland: Edinburgh, by Gifford, McWilliam and Walker</ref> caused delay in development. A section of Glenfinlas Street at the north-west corner of Charlotte Square was not completed until 1990 while the western end of Queen Street, north of Charlotte Square, has never been developed.

The New Town was envisaged as a mainly residential suburb with a number of professional offices of domestic layout. It had few planned retail ground floors, however it did not take long for the commercial potential of the site to be realised. Shops were soon opened on Princes Street, and during the 19th century the majority of the townhouses on that street were replaced with larger commercial buildings. Occasional piecemeal redevelopment continues to this day, though most of Queen Street and Thistle Street, and large sections of George Street, Hanover, Frederick and Castle Streets, are still lined with their original late 18th century buildings.

==Northern, or Second, New Town and extensions==
[[File:Great King Street, Edinburgh New Town.JPG|thumb|left|Great King Street. Part of the northern extension to the original New Town]]
After 1800, the success of the first New Town led to grander schemes. The 'Northern New Town' (now usually called the Second New Town) aimed to extend Edinburgh from the north of Queen Street Gardens<ref name = EdCouncil>{{cite web | year=2005 | url=http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/downloads/file/750/new_town_conservation_area_character_appraisal | author=The City of Edinburgh Council | title=New Town Conservation Area Character Appraisal | accessdate=2017-07-09}}</ref> towards the [[Water of Leith]], with extensions to the east and west. These developments took place mostly between 1800–1830. Initial designs followed the original grid orientation of Craig’s First New Town, with entire streets being built as one construction. Building continued on an extended Hanover Street, called Dundas Street and, beyond Great King Street, Pitt Street (later renamed to Dundas Street in the 1960s), almost 1 km north towards the Water of Leith at [[Canonmills]]. Streets were laid out either side with Great King Street the central avenue terminated by Drummond Place to the east and Royal Circus to the west. Northumberland Street and Cumberland Street were lesser streets to the south and north respectively. Heriot Row and Abercromby Place, both one-sided streets at the southern limit of the development, enjoyed open aspects to Queen Street Gardens.

[[File:Moray Place, Edinburgh New Town.JPG|thumb|Moray Place. Part of the western extension to the original New Town]]
Very large sections of the Second New Town, built from the early 19th century are also still exactly as built. Townhouses generally occupied the east-west streets, with blocks of flats (called tenements in Scotland) along the north-south streets. Shops were originally generally restricted to the lower floors of the wider north-south streets. The larger houses had service mews running behind and parallel to their terraces.

The Picardy Place extension (including Broughton Street, Union Street and East London Street) was mostly finished by 1809.<ref name = EdCouncil/> To the west of the original New Town, Shandwick Place, an extension of Princes Street, was started in 1805. Development of Melville Street and the area north of Shandwick Place followed in 1825.<ref name = EdCouncil/> The Gayfield Estate (Gayfield Square) extension was designed in 1807 and from around 1813 the New Town gradually replaced and developed the older village of [[Stockbridge, Edinburgh|Stockbridge]].<ref name = EdCouncil/> The painter [[Henry Raeburn]] bought the Deanhough estate in the northwest of the New Town and started development in 1813 with Ann Street named after his wife.<ref name = EdCouncil/>

In 1822, the [[Earl of Moray]] had plans drawn up by [[James Gillespie Graham]] to develop his Drumsheugh estate, between [[Charlotte Square]] and the [[Water of Leith]]. This was popular amongst the Scots nobility and wealthy lawyers. The bulk of the estate was complete by 1835, but many of the corner blocks were not finally added until the 1850s. The estate is now usually called the [[Moray Estate]]. It remains one of the city's most affluent areas and of the most exclusive set of addresses<ref>http://www.morayfeu.com/history/</ref>

==Eastern, or Third, New Town==
[[File:Playfair's plan of the East New Town.jpg|thumb|left|380px|William Henry Playfair's plan for Edinburgh's Eastern New Town approved at a meeting on 27 September 1819, engraving by Wiliiam Home Lizars. ''Note that the orientation of the plan is with north on the left side, so Calton Hill is on the right.'']]
In order to extend the New Town eastwards, the Lord Provost, Sir John Marjoribanks, succeeded in getting the elegant [[Regent Bridge]] built.<ref name = SirJohn>Marjoribanks,Roger (2014) "Edinburgh Portrait, Sir John Marjoribanks , Bart, MP (1763–1833)" The Book of the Edinburgh Club, Volume 10, Pp 151-156, {{ISBN|0-9517284-9-0}}</ref> It was completed in 1819. The bridge spanned a deep ravine with narrow inconvenient streets and made access to [[Calton Hill]] much easier and agreeable from Princes Street.<ref name = Report>{{cite web |url=http://hsewsf.sedsh.gov.uk/hslive/hsstart?P_HBNUM=27945 |title=Regent Bridge, Listed Building Report |publisher=Historic Scotland |accessdate=2009-10-17}}</ref>

Even before the bridge had been built, Edinburgh Town Council were making preparations for building the Eastern New Town, which would stretch from the slopes of Calton Hill, north to [[Leith]], between [[Leith Walk]] and Easter Road. The Lord Provost made an agreement with the main landowners in 1811, some initial surveying was done and there was a competition for architectural plans for the development that on 1 January 1813, the results of which were inconclusive. A number of prominent architects were then asked for their opinions: [[William Stark (architect)|William Stark]], [[James Gillespie Graham|James Gillespie]], Robert Burn and his son [[William Burn]], [[John Paterson (architect)|John Paterson]] and [[Robert Reid (architect)|Robert Reid]] and others.<ref name = Youngson2>Youngson, A.J. (1966): "The Making of Classical Edinburgh", [[Edinburgh University Press]], Edinburgh, UK, {{ISBN|0-7486-1768-X}}</ref>

Stark's observations were particularly valued and he went on to expand them in a ''"Report to the Lord Provost, Magistrates and Council of Edinburgh on the Plans for Laying out the Grounds for Buildings between Edinburgh and Leith"''. Stark died on 9 October 1813, and his report was published posthumously in 1814.

The commissioners decided to turn to Stark's pupil [[William Henry Playfair]]. He was appointed in February 1818, and produced a plan in April 1819, that closely followed Starks's recommendations. Playfair’s designs were intended to create a New Town even more magnificent than Craig's.<ref name = Youngson>Youngson, A.J. (2001): "The Companion Guide to Edinburgh and the borders", Chapter 9 (Calton Hill), [[Polygon Books]], Edinburgh, UK, {{ISBN|0-7486-6307-X}}</ref>

[[File:Royal Scottish Academy, Edinburgh.JPG|thumb|right|300px|The Old Royal High School on Calton Hill]]
[[Regent Terrace]], [[Carlton Terrace, Edinburgh|Carlton Terrace]] and [[Royal Terrace, Edinburgh|Royal Terrace]] on Calton Hill were built, also Hillside Crescent and some adjoining streets, but the development further north in the direction of Leith was never completed. On the south side of Calton Hill various monuments were erected as well as the [[Old Royal High School|Royal High School]] designed in Greek revival style by [[Thomas Hamilton (architect)|Thomas Hamilton]].

==Other additions==
[[File:Regent Terrace Edinburgh3.JPG|thumb|left|Regent Terrace, part of Playfair's eastern extension of the New Town]]
A few modest developments in Canonmills were started in the 1820s but none were completed at that time. For several decades the operations of the tannery at [[Silvermills]] inhibited development in the immediate vicinity. From the 1830s onward, development slowed but following the completion in 1831 of [[Thomas Telford]]’s [[Dean Bridge]], the Dean Estate had some developments built. These included the Dean Orphanage (now the [[Dean Gallery]]), [[Daniel Stewart's College]], streets to the Northeast of Queensferry Street (in the 1850s), Buckingham Terrace (in 1860) and Learmonth Terrace (in 1873).<ref name = EdCouncil/>

In the 19th century Edinburgh's second railway, the [[Edinburgh, Leith and Newhaven Railway]], built a tunnel under the New Town to link Scotland Street with Canal Street (later absorbed into [[Edinburgh Waverley railway station|Waverley Station]]). After its closure, the tunnel was used to grow mushrooms, and during World War 2 as an air raid shelter.

==Principal losses==
[[File:Drumsheugh Gardens, Edinburgh.JPG|thumb|Drumsheugh Gardens. Part of the further western, Victorian extension to the New Town]]
Given the great continuity of the built form in the New Town it is quicker to list what little has gone, rather than muse on the numerous streets which are unchanged.

Bellevue House by [[Robert Adam]], which became the Excise or Custom House, was built in 1775, before the New Town reached the area, in what is now Drummond Place Gardens. Great King Street and London Street in the Northern or Second New Town were aligned on this building but it was demolished in the 1840s due to the construction of the Scotland Street railway tunnel below.<ref name=Gifford>{{cite book | last1=Gifford | first1=John | last2=McWilliam | first2=Colin | last3=Walker | first3=David | title=The buildings of Scotland: Edinburgh | publisher=Penguin Books | year=1984 | isbn=0-14-071068-X}}</ref>

Lost streets include those in the St James Square area, demolished in the 1960s to make way for the St James Shopping Centre and offices for the [[Scottish Office]]. This mainly tenemental area, reported as having a population of 3,763, was demolished largely on the basis of being slums with only 61 of 1,100 dwellings being considered fit for habitation.

Also demolished as slums was most of Jamaica Street at the west end of the Second New Town.

==Culture==
[[File:Street lamp, Edinburgh New Town.jpg|thumb|upright|Typical New Town street lamps (in Nelson Street)]]
The New Town is home to the [[National Gallery of Scotland]] and the [[Royal Scottish Academy Building]], both designed by Playfair and located next to each other on The Mound. The [[Scottish National Portrait Gallery]] is on Queen Street. Other notable buildings include the [[Assembly Rooms (Edinburgh)|Assembly Rooms]] on George Street, the [[Balmoral Hotel]] (formerly called the ''North British Hotel'', after a railway company) with its landmark clock tower above [[Edinburgh Waverley railway station|Waverley Station]], and the [[Scott Monument]].

The [[Cockburn Association]] (Edinburgh Civic Trust) is prominent in campaigning to preserve the architectural integrity of the New Town.

==Shopping==
The New Town contains Edinburgh's main shopping streets. Princes Street is home to many chain shops, as well as [[Jenners|Jenners department store]], an Edinburgh institution. [[George Street, Edinburgh|George Street]], once the financial centre, now has numerous modern bars, many occupying former banking halls, while [[Multrees Walk]] on St. Andrew Square is home to [[Harvey Nichols]] and other designer shops. The [[St. James Centre]], at the east end of the New Town, was an indoor mall completed in 1970. Often considered an unwelcome addition to New Town architecture, it included a large branch of [[John Lewis Partnership|John Lewis]]. The St. James Centre (excluding John Lewis) closed on Sunday, 16 October 2016 and has been demolished. It is being redeveloped and is due to reopen in 2020 at a cost of £850,000,000. Also, by the Waverley Station lies the [[Waverley Mall]], which contains many high street stores including: [[Game (retailer)|Game]], [[Costa Coffee|Costa]], [[McDonald's]], [[Sainsbury's]], [[KFC]], [[Subway (restaurant)|Subway]], [[Superdry]] and [[Greggs]].

'''Kinghorn''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|k|ɪ|ŋ|h|ɔr|n|audio=Kinghorn.ogg}}; {{lang-gd|Ceann Gronna}}) is a [[town]] and parish in [[Fife]], [[Scotland]]. A [[seaside resort]] with two [[beach]]es, Kinghorn Beach and Pettycur Bay, plus a [[fishing port]], it stands on the north shore of the [[Firth of Forth]], opposite [[Edinburgh]]. According to the 2008 population estimate, the town has a population of 2,930.{{citation needed|date=April 2012}}

Known as the place where King [[Alexander III of Scotland]] died, it lies on the [[A921 road]] and the [[Fife Coastal Path]]. [[Kinghorn railway station]] is on the [[Edinburgh to Aberdeen Line|Edinburgh to Aberdeen]] and [[Fife Circle Line|Fife Circle]] [[railway]] lines. Kinghorn only has a [[primary school]], so high school pupils must travel by bus to [[Balwearie High School]] in [[Kirkcaldy]].

The town's [[lifeboat (rescue)|lifeboat]] station is one of [[Scotland|Scotland's]] busiest - regularly getting called out to all sorts of emergencies in the Firth. Currently stationed at Kinghorn is an [[Atlantic 85 class lifeboat|Atlantic 85 inshore lifeboat]], B-836 "Tommy Niven".

The civil parish has a population of 4,201 (in 2011).<ref name= KS101SC>Census of Scotland 2011, Table KS101SC – Usually Resident Population, publ. by National Records of Scotland.

The historic former [[Royal Burgh]] of Kinghorn lies on the coast of the [[Fife]]. The former royal castle at Kinghorn was frequently visited by the [[List of Scottish monarchs|Scottish Court]] in the period of the House of Dunkeld. The King's castle, controlling the seaway, stood on the headland above Pettycur.<ref group=note>Kinghorn Castle was located at {{coord|56.0645|N|3.1751|W|display=inline|region:GB}}</ref> King [[Alexander III of Scotland|Alexander III]] was returning on horseback to Kinghorn Castle to see his new wife [[Yolande of Dreux, Queen of Scotland|Yolande of Dreux]], when he fell and was found dead on the beach of Pettycur Bay in March 1286, creating the succession crisis that led to the [[Wars of Scottish Independence]].<ref>{{cite book | title=Scottish Queens, 1034-1714 | last=Marshall | first=Rosalind K. | page=27 | year=2003 | publisher=Tuckwell Press }}</ref> A later structure, Glamis Tower (or Glamis Castle), stood just behind the High Street.<ref group=note>Glamis Tower was located at {{coord|56.0712|N|3.1762|W|region:GB|display=inline}}</ref> When Sir [[John Lyon, Lord of Glamis|John Lyon]] married Princess Johanna in 1373, the daughter of King [[Robert II of Scotland|Robert II]], her dowry included Glamis Castle.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.scottish-places.info/towns/townhistory79.html |author=[[Francis Groome|Groome, F.]] |title=Kinghorn |work=Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland: A Survey of Scottish Topography, Statistical, Biographical and Historical |year=1885}}</ref> Rebuilt in 1543, the castle was besieged by [[James Kirkcaldy of Grange]] in 1546 and fell. Both buildings have totally disappeared and the sites built over in modern times.

During the [[Scottish Reformation]], French troops commanded by [[Henri Cleutin]] and [[Corbeyran de Cardaillac Sarlabous|Captain Sarlabous]] sailed from Leith and fought with the [[Lords of the Congregation]] at Pettycur Bay on 7 January 1560. Kinghorn Castle remained an important possession of the Scottish Crown, and this was recognised by the creation of the [[Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne|Earldom of Kinghorne]] in 1606.

A [[Burn (topography)|burn]], fed from the freshwater Kinghorn [[Loch]] above the town, once provided the town with its water and subsequently provided the source of power to drive the machinery of flax mills.

The old town was dramatically transformed in 1846 by the construction of the railway viaduct across the valley of the burn and the opening of Kinghorn Station by the [[Edinburgh and Northern Railway]] which had its terminus at [[Burntisland]] for ferries across the Forth to [[Granton, Edinburgh|Granton]]. Much of the former horse ferry traffic from Pettycur Bay was lost to Burntisland.

Following the opening of the [[Forth Railway Bridge]] in 1890, the [[North British Railway]] started to promote Kinghorn's picturesque sheltered bay and beach as a [[resort]], which led to considerable development of the town.

==Culture and sport==
An annual attraction is the Black Rock '5' Race, commonly referred to as the "Black Rock '5'" or the "Black Rock Race", is a road and beach running race of about {{convert|4.5|mi|km}} that has been held in Kinghorn each year since 1987. Its distinguishing feature is the loop around the Black Rocks, over a mile from the shore, and largely under water except at low tide. The race is held on a suitable Friday in May or June, when the tide is out and the water is no more than knee deep. Over the years it has changed from a simple race into a full-blown social night in Kinghorn's calendar.

The inaugural Black Rock '5', held in 1987, was won by Gifford Kerr, ahead of 66 other finishers; a very small field by today's standards - in 2005 there were over 600 participants, of a wide variety of abilities. The race has been staged every year since 1987, apart from 1991, and throughout the years the numbers have increased significantly, as did the quality of the top end of the field, with recent winners including Neil Renault and Ross Houston. In the 21st century the race has been dominated by Edinburgh running club Hunters Bog Trotters (HBT) with both Phil Mowbray and Don Naylor having taken the spoils. The course record belongs to Ian Harkness, also of HBT, in a time of 22:03.

[[Image:GilbertfieldNE.jpg|thumb|300px|Gilbertfield Castle, seen from the north-east.]]
'''Gilbertfield Castle''' is a ruined 17th-century castle in [[South Lanarkshire]], Scotland. It is located at {{gbmappingsmall|NS652587}}, on the north slope of Dechmont Hill, just outside [[Cambuslang]], to the south-east of [[Glasgow]].

==History==
The castle is within the former [[barony]] of [[Drumsagard Village|Drumsagard]], which was a possession of the [[Clan Hamilton|Hamiltons]]. The castle was built in the early 17th century, and the date 1607 is displayed on a heraldic panel above the door. The castle was later lived in, around the turn of the 18th century, by [[William Hamilton of Gilbertfield]] (1665-1751), a retired soldier and writer. A friend of [[Allan Ramsay (poet)|Allan Ramsay]], he was responsible for translating [[Blind Harry]]'s epic poem ''[[The Actes and Deidis of the Illustre and Vallyeant Campioun Schir William Wallace]]''.

==The castle==
Gilbertfield is a well-planned [[L Plan Castle|L-plan]] [[tower house]]. The stair tower, which projects to the north, was large enough to accommodate a series of rooms as well as a square turnpike stair.

The basement level was vaulted, and contained cellars and a kitchen, which had a large fireplace and oven. A service stair connected the basement with the hall above. The hall itself had a smaller fireplace, as well as large windows with gunloops in between. Above the hall were two further floors, each with three rooms; two in the main block, and one in the wing. At the highest level, the garret, two round turrets projected at the south-east and north-west corners. There was no parapet.

The castle is now a neglected ruin, the east wall having collapsed in the 1950s. Only the corbelling of the north-west turret remains.which fell down in the late 1960s. It is now deemed extremely dangerous as a lot of the brick work has fallen each year. The turret fell in the 1970s.

[[Image:GilbertfieldNE.jpg|thumb|300px|Gilbertfield Castle, seen from the north-east.]]
'''Gilbertfield Castle''' is a ruined 17th-century castle in [[South Lanarkshire]], Scotland. It is located at {{gbmappingsmall|NS652587}}, on the north slope of Dechmont Hill, just outside [[Cambuslang]], to the south-east of [[Glasgow]].

==History==
The castle is within the former [[barony]] of [[Drumsagard Village|Drumsagard]], which was a possession of the [[Clan Hamilton|Hamiltons]]. The castle was built in the early 17th century, and the date 1607 is displayed on a heraldic panel above the door. The castle was later lived in, around the turn of the 18th century, by [[William Hamilton of Gilbertfield]] (1665-1751), a retired soldier and writer. A friend of [[Allan Ramsay (poet)|Allan Ramsay]], he was responsible for translating [[Blind Harry]]'s epic poem ''[[The Actes and Deidis of the Illustre and Vallyeant Campioun Schir William Wallace]]''.

==The castle==
Gilbertfield is a well-planned [[L Plan Castle|L-plan]] [[tower house]]. The stair tower, which projects to the north, was large enough to accommodate a series of rooms as well as a square turnpike stair.

The basement level was vaulted, and contained cellars and a kitchen, which had a large fireplace and oven. A service stair connected the basement with the hall above. The hall itself had a smaller fireplace, as well as large windows with gunloops in between. Above the hall were two further floors, each with three rooms; two in the main block, and one in the wing. At the highest level, the garret, two round turrets projected at the south-east and north-west corners. There was no parapet.

The castle is now a neglected ruin, the east wall having collapsed in the 1950s. Only the corbelling of the north-west turret remains.which fell down in the late 1960s. It is now deemed extremely dangerous as a lot of the brick work has fallen each year. The turret fell in the 1970s.

Jerviston House

2017-01-09T13:42:35Z

Crowsus:

'''Jerviston''' is a country [[estate]] on the north-eastern edge of the [[Scotland|Scottish]] town of [[Motherwell]] in [[North Lanarkshire]] which is now occupied by ''Colville Park Country Club''.

The estate was once the location of a small castle ([[Laird]]'s House) constructed in the 15th century, owned by the family of [[Robert Baillie]]. It was said to be very similar in design to [[Kingencleugh Castle]]. In the late 18th century the famed architects [[James Adam (architect)|James]] and [[Robert Adam]] were commissioned to design a new [[country house]] adjacent to the older buildings. Jerviston was later purchased by the [[David Colville & Sons|Colville family]] whose [[steelmaking]] plants in the area transformed Motherwell from a small village into an industrial town in the late 19th century. After the death of David Colville Snr the estate was gifted to the employees of the steel works and turned into a public park for the benefit of local people. A [[country club]] featuring a [[golf course]] and [[bowling green]]s was established in 1923.

In the 1960s the 'old' (18th-century) Jerviston House was demolished and replaced by a new club house with modern facilities – today the Colville Park club hosts events such as weddings there.<ref>[http://colvilleparkgc.co.uk/history Colville Park Golf Club History]</ref> Around the same time, what remained of the 15th-century castle – which had become dilapidated – was also torn down.<ref>[http://www.scottishcastlesassociation.com/news-articles/past-present/jerviston-tower.htm Scottish Castles Association – Jerviston Tower]</ref>

The football grounds are home to [[Colville Park A.F.C.]], a successful amateur club which began life in the 1960s as a [[works team]] for the Colville steelworks at [[Ravenscraig steelworks|Ravenscraig]] and Dalzell.<ref>[http://www.scottishamateurfa.co.uk/upload/programme/1475783102Scottish%20Amateur%20Cup%20Final%20Programme.pdf Scottish Amateur Cup Final 2016 Programme]</ref>

Jerviston is also the name of a small residential area to the south of the country club which, along with the adjacent ''Cleekhimin'' area and the [[Ravenscraig|new Ravenscraig redevelopment]], lie on the opposite side of the [[South Calder Water]] from the rest of Motherwell. The Jerviston/Cleekhimin settlement is part of a wider built-up area to the east of [[Bellshill]] which includes the villages of [[Carfin]], [[New Stevenston]], [[Newhouse, North Lanarkshire|Newhouse]], [[Newarthill]] and [[Holytown]] – these communities are nowadays connected by modern housing estates.

Jerviston House

2016-12-19T16:44:55Z

Crowsus:

'''Jerviston''' is a country [[estate]] on the north-eastern edge of the [[Scotland|Scottish]] town of [[Motherwell]] in [[North Lanarkshire]] which is now occupied by ''Colville Park Country Club''.

The estate was once the location of a small castle ([[Laird]]'s House) constructed in the 15th century, owned by the family of [[Robert Baillie]]. It was said to be very similar in design to [[Kingencleugh Castle]]. In the late 18th century the famed architects [[James Adam (architect)|James]] and [[Robert Adam]] were commissioned to design a new [[country house]] adjacent to the older buildings. Jerviston was later purchased by the [[David Colville & Sons|Colville family]] whose [[steelmaking]] plants in the area transformed Motherwell from a small village into an industrial town in the late 19th century. After the death of David Colville Snr the estate was gifted to the employees of the steel works and turned into a public park for the benefit of local people. A [[country club]] featuring a [[golf course]] and [[bowling green]]s was established in 1923.

In the 1960s the 'old' (18th century) Jerviston House was demolished and replaced by a new club house with modern facilities – today the Colville Park club hosts events such as weddings there.<ref>[http://colvilleparkgc.co.uk/history Colville Park Golf Club History]</ref> Around the same time, what remained of the 15th century castle - which had become dilapidated - was also torn down.<ref>[http://www.scottishcastlesassociation.com/news-articles/past-present/jerviston-tower.htm Scottish Castles Association – Jerviston Tower]</ref>

The football grounds are home to [[Colville Park A.F.C.]], a successful amateur club which began life in the 1960s as a [[works team]] for the Colville steelworks at [[Ravenscraig steelworks|Ravenscraig]] and Dalzell.<ref>[http://www.scottishamateurfa.co.uk/upload/programme/1475783102Scottish%20Amateur%20Cup%20Final%20Programme.pdf Scottish Amateur Cup Final 2016 Programme]</ref>

Jerviston is also the name of a small residential area to the south of the country club which, along with the adjacent ''Cleekhimin'' area and the [[Ravenscraig|new Ravenscraig redevelopment]], lie on the opposite side of the [[South Calder Water]] from the rest of Motherwell. The Jerviston/Cleekhimin settlement is part of a wider built-up area to the east of [[Bellshill]] which includes the villages of [[Carfin]], [[New Stevenston]], [[Newhouse, North Lanarkshire|Newhouse]], [[Newarthill]] and [[Holytown]] – these communities are nowadays connected by modern housing estates.

The remains of the old castle of '''Kingencleugh''' or '''Kingenclough'''<ref name=c>Salter, Page 48</ref> lies close to east of the town of [[Mauchline]], [[East Ayrshire]], in the old Barony of Mauchline off the A76. The castle is Category B listed.<ref>[http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/sc-14481-kingencleugh-castle-mauchline/map British Listed Buildings] Retrieved : 2012-06-12</ref>

==The history of Kingencleugh Castle==
From the remains, this appears to have been built as a dwelling with defence as a secondary consideration. John Knox is said to have visited it in 1556.<ref name=cu/> Kingencleugh was built as one of several castles built as border markers for the Campbell feus in the area.<ref>Campbell, Page 206</ref> Kingencleugh latterly became part of the Ballochmyle estate. The present castle was built around 1620<ref name=c/> to replace the older fortification that Knox would have known. The castle was abandoned once the new house was built.<ref>Love (2003), Page 152</ref> The Campbells held the property until the end of the 18th century.<ref>Coventry, Page 85</ref>

Kingencleugh was the residence successively of Hugh and Robert Campbell, both ardent reformers. [[George Wishart]] and [[John Knox]] were entertained here and Knox also preached at this castle when he visited Mauchline in 1556.<ref name=cu/> On his death bed it was to Robert Campbell that Knox said: ''"I rely on you becoming to them (his wife and children) as a husband and a father in my room."''<ref>[http://www.mauchlinevillage.co.uk/church.html Mauchline Village] Retrieved : 2012-06-12</ref>

Dobie records that John Knox was conducted ''by Lochhart of Bar and Campbell of Kineancleugh to Kyle, the ancient recaptacle of the Scottish Lollards, where there were a number of adherents to the reformed doctrine. He preached in the houses of Bar, Kineancleugh, Carnell, Ochiltree, and Gadgirth, and in the town of Ayr. In several of these places he also dispensed the Sacrament of Our Lord's Supper.''<ref>Dobie, Page 295</ref>

===The castle ruins===
[[File:Robbie Burns' Bath - Kingencleugh.JPG|thumb|left|upright|Robet Burns' Bath.]]
The remains lie above the Kingen Cleugh Glen and burn and are those of a four storey L-shaped residence of ashlar-ended rubble masonry. The remaining walls are 0.8m thick; the two lower floors have slit windows only. The north-west wall, forming the end of the western arm of the 'L', stands to its full height of around 7.0m, and is surmounted by a crow-stepped gable. The lower part of a corbelled turret remains in the re-entrant angle, in the western arm of which is the entrance. The main ground floor apartment appears to have been barrel-vaulted. The house is in a fairly defensible situation, overlooking ground sloping to the south. A 'Cleugh' is a narrow gorge or chasm with high rocky sides in Scots. [[Jerviston]] House is of a very similar design.<ref name="RCAHMS Kingencleugh">[http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/43569/details/kingencleugh+castle/ RCAHMS Kingencleugh] Retrieved : 2012-06-12</ref>

Kingencleugh overlooks the Lily or Kingen Cleugh Glen and the burn that runs into the nearby River Ayr. Local tradition states that a subterranean passage or [[ley tunnel]] runs between Mauchline Castle and Kingencleugh.<ref name=cu/>

===The Lily Glen and Robert Burns===
[[File:Haugh Mill Lade Tunnel - Kingencleugh.JPG|thumb|upright|left|Haugh Mill Lade tunnel.]]
The Lily Glen or Kingen Cleugh Glen contains a small rivulet that runs down to the River Ayr. The lilies usually refer to daffodils in Scots, however lily can also be a general term for wild garlic or bluebells. The glen is rich in old woodland indicator plants such as woodruff, wood sorrel, bluebell, woodrush, cow wheat, enchanter's nightshade, creeping jenny, wood millet, dog's mercury, etc.

Local tradition maintains that [[Robert Burns]] used to visit the glen to enjoy a dip in the [[Haugh, East Ayrshire|Kingencleugh Burn]] when he lived at Mossgiel Farm near Mauchline. An old stone bath or cistern still exists with moss covered steps running down to it. Locals would point out this site as being his bathing place and a vague memory of a Lady Sophia is also associated with this site.<ref name=cu>Cuthbertson, Page 100</ref> Burns is known to have frequented the area and he praised these 'Braes of Ballochmyle' in his poem to ''The Lass of Ballochmyle'' who he observed in the half-twilight near the site of the old 'Fog House.'<ref name=Cuthbertson97>Cuthbertson, Page 97</ref><ref name=dl/>

The Lass of Ballochmyle
:"''With careless step I onward stray'd'',
:''My heart rejoic'd in Nature's joy'',
:''When, musing in a lonely glade'',
:''A maiden fair I chanc'd to spy''.
:''Her look was like the morning's eye'',
:''Her air like Nature's vernal smile''.
:''Perfection whisper'd, passing by'':-
:''Behold the lass o' Ballochmyle''!"

The OS maps show a stone bath or cistern at the bottom of the Kingen Cleugh Glen where all the burn waters were diverted into it, leaving via a tunnel cut through the rock and then running down the Haugh hamlet, situated about two and a half miles downstream from Catrine, on the north bank of the [[River Ayr]]. In 1837 there was a woollen mill, and a corn and saw mill, drawing water from the aforementioned cistern, about a quarter of a mile upstream. The lade was tunnelled through the soft red sandstone of the river gorge, and the tunnel mouths can both be seen, as can two stone arched footbridges over the lade, and an overflow sluice. No trace traces of the woollen mill, which in 1837 employed thirty persons Spinning yarn for a [[Kilmarnock]] carpet factory, have survived.<ref>[http://www.ayrshirehistory.com/ref_mills_of_the_river_ayr_hume.html Mills of the River Ayr] Retrieved : 2012-06-18</ref>

==A Legend of Kingcleugh Castle==
[[File:Damhead Ford - Kingencleugh.JPG|left|thumb|250px|The Damhead Ford over the River Ayr.]]
In 1253 Sir Percy Seton fell in love with Mona, the daughter of the 'rude and almost savage' Cormac of the Cleugh, Laird of Kingcleugh, known as 'King of the Cleugh' or the 'Hunter King'. Cormac refused to allow Sir Percy to marry his daughter. Cormac was obsessed with the sport of hunting wild boar in the woods to the west of Kingcleugh. The skins and heads of his many kills over the years were kept at trophies within one the vaults in the castle. One day, whilst hunting boar in the forest of Kolium, some miles to the west of his castle, near the River Ayr, he chanced upon the deep and secluded lair of an exceptional boar.

This ferocious creature however killed all his boar-hounds. The laird attempted to force his head huntsman to enter the animal's den and upon refusal he hit him with his boar-spear, knocking him off balance, resulting in the retainers terrible death at the 'tusks' of the creature after falling into the boars lair. The laird was superstitious and believed that the dead man's spirit and the ghost of the boar haunted the vault of his castle. Sir Percy hit upon the plan of using the [[ley tunnel]] that ran between the castle of Mauchline and that of Kingcleugh to enter the vault, and Mona, having been informed of the plot, ensured that her forced wedding to a man chosen by her father, was close to the vault. At the critical point in the ceremony the bloodied ghost of the dead huntsman appeared to burst forth from the sealed vault. The apparition seized the bride and then secretly carried her away to Mauchline Castle, via the tunnel, in the arms of her beloved.<ref>Ingram, Pages 181 - 199</ref>

==Micro-history==
Lady Cecilia Brabazon, aunt of Mr Alexander of Ballochmyle, lived for many years in a cottage (Kingencleugh House?) near the old castle tower of Kingencleugh.<ref name=mm/>

Miss [[Wilhelmina Alexander]] of Ballochmyle is Robert Burns' ''Bonnie Lass of Ballochmyle'' who he observed in the half-twilight near Ballochmyle House in the Braes of Ballochmyle.

Crowsus:

'''Jerviston''' is a country [[estate]] on the north-eastern edge of the [[Scotland|Scottish]] town of [[Motherwell]] in [[North Lanarkshire]] which is now occupied by ''Colville Park Country Club''.

The estate was once the location of a small castle ([[Laird]]'s House) constructed in the 15th century, owned by the family of [[Robert Baillie]]. In the late 18th century the famed architects [[James Adam (architect)|James]] and [[Robert Adam]] were commissioned to design a new [[country house]] adjacent to the older buildings. Jerviston was later purchased by the [[David Colville & Sons|Colville family]] whose [[steelmaking]] plants in the area transformed Motherwell from a small village into an industrial town in the late 19th century. After the death of David Colville Snr the estate was gifted to the employees of the steel works and turned into a public park for the benefit of local people. A [[country club]] featuring a [[golf course]] and [[bowling green]]s was established in 1923.

In the 1960s the 'old' (18th century) Jerviston House was demolished and replaced by a new club house with modern facilities – today the Colville Park club hosts events such as weddings there.<ref>[http://colvilleparkgc.co.uk/history Colville Park Golf Club History]</ref> Around the same time, what remained of the 15th century castle - which had become dilapidated - was also torn down.<ref>[http://www.scottishcastlesassociation.com/news-articles/past-present/jerviston-tower.htm Scottish Castles Association – Jerviston Tower]</ref>

The football grounds are home to [[Colville Park A.F.C.]], a successful amateur club which began life in the 1960s as a [[works team]] for the Colville steelworks at [[Ravenscraig steelworks|Ravenscraig]] and Dalzell.<ref>[http://www.scottishamateurfa.co.uk/upload/programme/1475783102Scottish%20Amateur%20Cup%20Final%20Programme.pdf Scottish Amateur Cup Final 2016 Programme]</ref>

Jerviston is also the name of a small residential area to the south of the country club which, along with the adjacent ''Cleekhimin'' area and the [[Ravenscraig|new Ravenscraig redevelopment]], lie on the opposite side of the [[South Calder Water]] from the rest of Motherwell. The Jerviston/Cleekhimin settlement is part of a wider built-up area to the east of [[Bellshill]] which includes the villages of [[Carfin]], [[New Stevenston]], [[Newhouse, North Lanarkshire|Newhouse]], [[Newarthill]] and [[Holytown]] – these communities are nowadays connected by modern housing estates.
