"Charts the developemt of the historic town of Kilsyth from the scatter of ferm touns in the area in the late 1500s, through to the elevation of Kilsyth to a burgh of barony in 1620 and the subsequent expansion of the 'new town', serving as a market and a centre of the textile industry. Part of the Scottish Burgh Survey - a series designed to identify the archaeological potential of Scotland's historic towns. This survey provides an accessible and broad-ranging synthesis of existing knowledge on historic Kilsyth, as well as offers conservation guidance for future development. The historic town of Kilsyth is situated in the Kelvin valley in North Lanarkshire - beside the old road between Edinburgh and Glasgow. It developed from a small medieval town set between its castle and parish church to become a burgh of barony in 1620. Its many historic buildings and ruins tell of its colourful history, including the destruction of its castle by Oliver Cromwell in 1650. It later expanded in the industrial period, becoming a centre of the textile industry, and later with the construction of the Forth and Clyde canal it was important for coal mining and quarrying.".…

Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition. 2011. xii, 131pp. Folding broadsheet to rear pocket. B&W and some colour illustrations. Excellent condition. No inscriptions. "This survey gives an accessible and broad-ranging synthesis of the history and archaeology of Galashiels, and aims to pose questions for further investigation. Nestled into a narrow valley, part in Roxburghshire and part in Selkirkshire, Galashiels owes its development to the Gala Water which provided an ideal source of power for the mills of the woollen industry, while the farms in the surrounding hills initially provided the wool. Medieval settlement in the valley focused around two or three fortified tower houses, in what became known as the Old Town. The first mills were established in the late sixteenth century and the creation of the town as a burgh of barony in 1599 opened the way to prosperity through regular markets. At the same time, the construction of the Galashiels Dam, a lade which followed the contours of the valley, created a guaranteed flow of water for the numerous mills which had sprung up. The rapid growth in the population of Scotland from the late eighteenth century created a demand for the town's woollen products. The surviving buildings reflect the town's development, from the seventeenth-century tower houses to the grand villas and workers' housing of the nineteenth century. The book concludes with an inventory of all the town's mills The town has received a little archaeological investigation, so the authors consider areas of particular archaeological potential, in order to inform future management of Gala's built and natural landscape. This book is part of the Scottish Burgh Survey - a series funded by Historic Scotland designed to identify the archaeological potential of Scotland's historic towns.".…

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 2005. x, 62pp. Folding broadsheet to rear pocket. B&W illustrations. "The historic town of Maybole lies equidistant from the burghs of Ayr and Girvan in South Ayrshire. There is evidence of an early Anglian settlement and in the Middle Ages Maybole developed into an important economic, ecclesiastical and political centre. The style of architecture in the town reflects the tempestuous history of local rivalries and feuds, which encouraged the building of distinctive defensible townhouses, such as the surviving castle and the tolbooth. There was rapid industrial and economic growth in the 19th century, with new civic building, factory developments and residential expansion. The book fully explores the rapid changes of the last century and makes a detailed evaluation of the surviving evidence." Light creasing to covers. No inscriptions.…
