THE ASSOCIATION FOR THE PRESERVATION OF RURAL SCOTLAND ANNUAL REPORT, 1964 

THE Council have pleasure in submitting the Thirty-sixth Annual Report of the Association, together with a Statement of Accounts for the year ended 31st December 1963. 

Annual General Meeting, 1963

The Annual General Meeting was held at 15 Rutland Square, Edinburgh, on 20th March 1963. The President, The Right Honourable The Earl of Galloway, was in the Chair, and after welcoming the Members present he congratulated the Chairman of Council on once again producing a very good Annual Report. Lord Galloway then introduced the speaker, Major Sir John Stirling, K.T., M.B.E., T.D., of Fairburn. 

Sir John Stirling said that he had read the Annual Report with very great interest and had been impressed by the very widespread activities of the Association. Referring to the litter problem, he was glad that his own County, Ross and Cromarty, had been among the first to devise a scheme to deal with litter, and the first step taken had been to enlist the help of the A.P.R.S. The scheme, which had been received with great enthusiasm everywhere, had worked very well. 

Turning to Hydro-electric Development, Sir John said there was bound to be criticism of many aspects of the schemes, but he felt that the North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board must be given the credit of doing the job given to them by Parliament very well indeed. Speaking of hedgerow timber Sir John said that while there were many old trees which had to come down there was often unfortunately a great deal of felling of trees of amenity value because of cash. With regard to forestry generally it was vital if millions of pounds were invested there should be a return, and, therefore, the species best suited to show a return should be planted. Finally, Sir John congratulated the A.P.R.S. on the amount of work they had undertaken and mentioned how often they were now approached by public bodies, and how often their objectives seemed to be achieved by tact. 

Before moving the adoption of the Annual Report, Commander Courtney Clarke, Chairman of Council, said that the A.P.R.S. during the first six or so years of its Anti-Litter Campaign had largely relied on persuasion and education. The Council felt that there was still far too great an apathy and failure to appreciate that the disease would not be cured unless emphasis was put on the fact that litter offenders are liable to be prosecuted. The majority of people would, he felt, like to see this done and only the real “Litter Bugs ” might be offended. He felt that bodies such as the Scottish Tourist Board and Scottish Omnibuses, who were doing so much to attract people to Scotland, should do more to support the Anti-litter Campaign. He also said that it was high time the Scottish Office did something about the promised legislation which was to give more latitude to local authorities. After referring to the gradual disappearance of hedgerow timber, and mentioning the desirability of bringing all the tidal waters of Scottish rivers under the 1951 Act, Commander Courtney Clarke then moved the adoption of the Annual Report. This resolution was seconded by Captain A. F. Matheson, R.N., Convener of the County Council of Ross and Cromarty, who took the opportunity of explaining what his County Council was doing in connection with amenity matters and tourism. 

After the formal business there was a discussion in which the main topics raised were litter and river pollution. 

In accordance with the usual custom Members had an opportunity of meeting each other at tea after the Annual General Meeting. 

The Council

The Council learned with deep regret of the death of Mr William Ferris, O.B.E., an Annual Member and a Member of Council. Mr Ferris, who was well known in Scotland for his activities in connection with out-of-door organisations, had a long connection with the A.P.R.S., and had been Chairman of Council between 1948 and 1951. 

At their April 1963 Meeting the Council co-opted Sir David J. W. Ogilvy, Bt., a Life Member, as a Member of Council. 

The Council welcomed the following new representatives of constituent bodies: Mr J. T. Russell, Automobile Association, Mr W. E. S. Mutch, Royal Scottish Forestry Society, Major M. I. Leslie Melville, Chartered Land Agents’ Society, and Captain James Craig, C.B.E., Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland. 

The Council have met regularly each month, August and September excepted, and the Chairman’s Advisory Committee has met as required in the forenoon prior to the Council Meeting. 

By courtesy of the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland, the monthly meetings of the Council continue to be held at 15 Rutland Square, Edinburgh, and the Annual General Meeting was again held there in March 1963. 

The Council once again take this opportunity of expressing their thanks to the Royal Incorporation for the facilities enjoyed at 15 Rutland Square.

Mr W. H. Fraser, W.S., from Associate to Life Membership. 

During the year the Automobile Association made application to become a Constituent Body on the understanding that they would pay an annual subscription equivalent to the generous donation which they had been in the habit of giving for many years. The Council cordially agreed that this application should be approved in view of the long-standing interest the Automobile Association had taken in the work of the A.P.R.S., particularly in connection with litter. 

Arising out of the interest taken by the A.P.R.S. in the Glenlee/ Newton Stewart transmission line, the Dumfries & Galloway Development Association joined as an Affiliated Society. 

The Council were sorry to receive an intimation from the Kirkcaldy Naturalists’ Society that they had decided to withdraw from affiliation with the A.P.R.S. 

The total number of Constituent Bodies and Affiliated Societies is now 39. 

Litter

LEGISLATION

Reference has been made in previous Annual Reports to the long awaited legislation intended to give greater powers to local authorities in dealing with the scavenging problem especially in rural areas. The Council welcomed the clause in the Countryside and Tourist Amenities (Scotland) Bill which makes provision as respects litter bins and the removal and disposal of litter. In terms of this clause a local authority may provide and maintain receptacles for the disposal of litter, and may within their area set up litter bins provided by them in any place situated in or adjacent to any road maintainable by them or on any land owned or occupied by them. A local authority is given power to empty and cleanse any litter bins set up by them, and may remove and dispose in such manner as they think fit the litter removed therefrom or any litter found lying in any place in their area. The powers conferred on a local authority by this clause shall be exercisable in relation to any place in their area which is not situated as mentioned above, but in relation to which an arrangement has been made with the consent of all persons having an interest in the land. 

Before this Bill was published the Chairman had taken up with the Scottish Development Department the question of amending the Litter Act, 1958, or promoting a new Act. The Council had this matter very much in mind, and they felt that the time had come when the question should be fully reviewed. At ” The Countryside in 1970″ Study Conference the litter problem was referred to by several speakers with special reference to Scotland in connection with the opening up of the countryside to the public which was there under discussion, and the consequent necessity for greater control and education. 

The Litter Act, 1958, (which developed out of a Private Member’s Bill) has proved of considerable value, but it is limited in its scope as it applies only to ” any place in the open air to which the public are entitled or permitted to have access without payment.” The real difficulty in trying to educate the public to be litter conscious is, for example, that it is not an offence to leave or dump litter on private property, such as gardens, open to the public at a small payment for charity, on moorlands when off rights of way, etc. In the opinion of the Council what is now required, and that urgently, is a further Act, which will apply to the whole of the countryside in Scotland where there is so much private property which could be opened up to the public. The problem is not so great as it is in England where there is much more common land, and where the enforcement of the Act lies largely with local authorities and private individuals. In Scotland, on the other hand, all prosecutions are public ones, and the responsibility for initiating prosecutions relies on the already overworked police. The difficulties of drafting an Act covering the whole of Scotland are appreciated, and it is agreed that it would presumably be desirable to exclude certain areas such as large sports grounds, race courses, etc., where it would not be practicable to enforce the Act. It is suggested that such areas could be adjusted from time to time by an Order under such an Act promulgated by the Secretary of State for Scotland. 

After the Countryside and Tourist Amenities (Scotland) Bill had been issued the Chairman, Vice-Chairman and the Organising Secretary, had an informal discussion with officials of the Scottish Development Department when it was suggested that a provision should be inserted in the Bill extending the scope of the Litter Act to make it apply to litter dropped anywhere in the countryside. They were informed, however, that leaving aside the merits of the case for amending legislation, there was no hope of effecting an amendment of this nature in this particular Bill. 

Earlier in the year the Council had appointed a Committee under the Chairmanship of Mr Alan Stewart-Clark, to look into the provisions of the Litter Act, 1958, their effectiveness today and the possibility of improving them for the good of the country in general. This Committee reported to the Council in October 1963, that, while in their opinion education was still the long-term remedy for the litter problem, they recommended that consideration should be given to extending the Litter Act to cover the depositing of litter in, into or from any places in the open air to which the public are not entitled or permitted to have access – in other words, private property. The Committee were instructed to proceed with their remit and other bodies concerned with the countryside in Scotland are being consulted for their views. The Council intend to press for a new Litter Act at every possible opportunity. 

PROSECUTIONS UNDER THE LITTER ACT, 1958. 

The following is a table showing the number of prosecutions taken under the Act during the twelve months ending on 30th September in each year:

City and Burgh Police Areas 

County and Combined Police Forces 

COUNTY OF PERTH

It having been reported to the Council in the early summer of 1963, that Perth County Council were in process of establishing in the Western District of that County a pilot scheme for the collection of litter, a letter was sent to the County Clerk congratulating the County Council on taking this step, and wishing them every success. Later in the year the County Clerk wrote reporting that the pilot scheme had been a great success, and that notwithstanding the heavy expenditure involved, the Landward Health Committee had agreed to recommend to the County Council that the scheme should be extended next year to cover the whole of the landward area of the County. 

GENERAL

The Council is engaged in the Anti-litter Campaign at the national level and cannot deal with every individual case of litter which is drawn to their attention. However, they do deal with such cases as far as possible, and the following examples which have occurred during the past year may be of interest. 

A letter was sent to Melrose Town Council drawing attention to the lack of litter bins in certain areas of the burgh with some suggestions which were intended to be helpful. 

Attention was drawn to a nasty collection of litter where the right of way path to the Cauldstaneslap leaves the Lanark Road, and with the co-operation of Chief Constable Merrilees an assurance was obtained from the County Roads Department that immediate attention would be given to this. 

After representations had been made by the A.P.R.S., the County Council of Ross and Cromarty agreed to move the litter bin at the viewpoint on Mam Rattagan to the other side of the road, as it was felt that in its original position it was in the forefront of the view. 

A Member of Council, Sir David J. W. Ogilvy, Bt., sent a letter about the litter menace to the Haddingtonshire Courier, and as a result that paper published a useful leader on the subject. 

River Pollution

The progress made in purifying most of the rivers of Scotland is still being seriously handicapped by the fact that the necessary legislation continues to lag behind that already enacted for England and Wales. 

Generally there has been no improvement to record since the issue of the Annual Report for 1963, which dealt with the question in considerable detail. 

TIDAL WATERS

Since the 1963 Report the Solway Firth (Prevention of Pollution) (Tidal Waters) Order 1963 has come into force.

SCOTTISH RIVER PURIFICATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE

Since the last Annual Report this Committee has met on 11th March 1963 and 24th June 1963. This completed the three-year period for which it was appointed, and it again became due for reconstitution by the Secretary of State for Scotland. 

The reconstituted Committee appointed for the third three-year period had its first meeting on 9th December 1963, under the continued Chairmanship of General Sir Philip Christison, Bt., and it included a number of new members. Among those re-appointed was Commander Courtney Clarke, who has served on this Committee since it was instituted in 1956. 

During the past year the Committee has carried out a very considerable amount of investigations and research work into the problems of River Purification, and General Christison has been in personal contact with the River Boards. 

The Secretary of State has been kept fully informed as regards the Committee’s work together with their recommendations, which it is hoped will be dealt with as soon as possible. 

Control of Advertisements

Having been informed that the railway track at the disused railway station at Balerno had been lifted, the Council took up again with Midlothian County Council the case for the removal of three advertisement hoardings to which reference has been made in previous Annual Reports. They were informed by the County Clerk that the County Council had received reports agreeing that these advertisement hoardings were detrimental to amenity and recommending the institution of the statutory procedure to secure their ultimate removal. It is accordingly hoped that ere long the offending advertisements will be removed. 

Hydro-Electric Development

Constructional Scheme No. 33 – Loch A’Bhraoin Project – and Constructional Scheme No. 39 – Fada-Fionn Project – were published in April 1963. Having considered the Schemes, the Council decided not to take objection to either of them. The North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board was, however, asked to forward information about the relative transmission lines, and about the architectural design of one of the generating stations in Constructional Scheme No. 33. A reply was received to the effect that this further information will be sent when available. 

Proposed Transmission Line-Glenlee/Newton Stewart

In March 1963, the A.P.R.S. was approached by the Galloway Social Panel and the Minnigaff Welfare Association with requests for help in opposing proposals by the South of Scotland Electricity Board to erect pylons in the vicinity of Queen Mary’s Bridge, Minnigaff. On taking the matter up with the Board, the Council were informed that because of the steadily growing demand for electricity, both in the Stewartry of Kirkcudbrightshire and in Wigtownshire, a major reinforcement of electricity supplies was essential to enable the Board to fulfil their statutory duty to consumers in the areas concerned. It was proposed to reinforce the supplies by erecting a 132 kV line between Glenlee and Newton Stewart. The Council were glad to note that the proposed transmission line was to be kept well away from the main Newton Stewart/New Galloway Road for most of its length. The main difficulty arose in the vicinity of Minnigaff, and the Council hoped that something could be done to minimize the effect on this particularly pleasant piece of countryside. They suggested to the Board, therefore, that the line should be re-routed for the critical distance of some nine hundred yards involved if that were possible or, if not, that the line should be placed underground. A formal objection to the section of the line in question north of Minnigaff was lodged with the Secretary of State for Scotland, and talks are now taking place with the Board with a view to arriving at a compromise which will be acceptable to the parties who are objecting to this part of the line. 

Carmunnock

The A.P.R.S. were asked by the Carmunnock Ratepayers’ Association to support them in opposing a proposal by Lanarkshire County Council to erect houses on the Glebe at Carmunnock. A Member of Council having visited the village, and reported that building of any sort on the Glebe would be detrimental to the amenity of the village, the Council decided to support the Ratepayers’ Association. The matter was taken up with the County Clerk, who replied that the County Council did not subscribe to the views about amenity put forward by the A.P.R.S. The views of the Council were also conveyed to the Church of Scotland General Trustees, and to the Presbytery of Glasgow. It is understood that the fate of Carmunnock Glebe is still the subject of negotiation between the parties interested. 

Countryside and Tourist Amenities (Scotland) Bill

This Bill which was ordered by the House of Commons to be printed on 14th November 1963, was considered in principle by the Scottish Grand Committee on 3rd, 5th and 10th December 1963. The preamble of the Bill states, among other things, that its purpose is to establish a Scottish Tourist Amenities Council; to facilitate the taking in Scotland of measures for the preservation or enhancement of the natural beauty of the countryside; and to provide for the establishment of a Scottish Tourist Fund, and to make further provision for the development of the tourist industry in Scotland. The Scottish Tourist Amenities Council is to have two functions – to advise the Secretary of State on the making of grants for work calculated to preserve or enhance the natural beauty of a country locality, and to administer the Scottish Tourist Fund, the purpose of which is to collect contributions in respect of tourist accommodation, to make grants or loans for the provision, maintenance or improvement of tourist facilities in Scotland. This new Council is therefore expected to do two things, the first of which – the making of grants for work in country localities – is the sort of thing which was envisaged at a meeting with the Secretary of State for Scotland some years ago, at which various amenity societies including the A.P.R.S. were represented, when the A.P.R.S. supported a proposal that the Government should set up a body comparable to the Historic Buildings Council to deal with areas of outstanding natural beauty. The Council take the view that this part of the Bill has not gone far enough, and that it is a pity that the Government intend that the new Amenities Council should carry out two different functions. This is also the view of the National Trust for Scotland who are seeking to have the Bill amended. 

“The Countryside in 1970” Study Conference

Commander H. C. Courtney Clarke, Chairman of Council, represented the A.P.R.S. at this Conference which was held at the Fishmongers Hall in London, on 4th and 5th November 1963. The Conference over which H.R.H. The Duke of Edinburgh presided, was attended by representatives of some ninety organisations of various kinds and was organised by the Nature Conservancy. Its success was largely due to the part taken in it by the Duke who, in his opening 

address, said that conservation was not an attempt to put the clock back or to turn the countryside into an open-air natural history museum, but he suggested as a definition of conservation “the total management of the rural areas of Britain for the fair and equal benefit of all groups.” This meant, he said, removing blemishes and creating new beauties for the hard pressed urban population. It meant encouraging people to use the countryside with understanding and loving care, leaving it as they found it. 

The Conference divided for its central sessions into three working parties on conservation, research and organisation. The Chairman was a member of the first, and took an opportunity of speaking on the problem of the pollution of Scottish tidal waters. 

The Conference concluded with a Dinner at St James’s Palace, at the invitation of His Royal Highness, who presided. This gave an opportunity for further informal discussion of the problems raised at the meetings. 

Glendevon – Proposed Sand and Gravel Workings

It was reported to the Association by a Member that an application had been made by a commercial concern for planning permission in principle to carry out operations for the excavation of sand and gravel, and the erection of washing plant on land in Glendevon covering an area of approximately fifty acres. The Council investigated the matter, and one of their number visited the site. The Council felt compelled to object because the proposed development was situated in an area proposed to be designated as an area of great landscape value. Furthermore, the Council considered that an industrial operation such as was contemplated at the place proposed would destroy the amenity of the area. After giving due consideration to the objections, and to the merits of the application, the local planning authority decided to grant approval to the development of a limited part of the ground proposed subject to strict conditions intended to ensure that the workings are carried out without being seen to any extent from the public road. Although the outcome was not completely satisfactory, the Council felt that the objectors had been successful to some extent. 

Loch Lomond Water Scheme

The details of a proposed new water supply scheme for central Scotland, which would use Loch Lomond as its source, were announced in the House of Commons in April 1963. The Chairman and Organising Secretary had been invited by the Scottish Development Department sometime previously to look at the plans in confidence and the scheme had been fully explained to them. It appeared that the scheme, which should be of great national value, had been most carefully planned and that care had been taken to preserve the amenity of the Loch and its surroundings. 

Miscellaneous

Various other amenity matters were dealt with by the Council, including a proposed industrial development at Haddington, a proposed transmission line between Cockenzie and Northumberland, a caravan site in Argyll, proposed Council Houses at Kilninver, Argyll, etc. 

Finance 

A Statement of Accounts for the year to 31st December 1963 is annexed to this Report. 

As anticipated in last year’s Report the expenditure incurred by the Association in 1963 was greater than in previous years. Income from subscriptions by individual members has fallen. This is only partly due to the new facilities afforded to members to commute to life membership and every endeavour should be made to obtain new members. The Association has been generously supported by donations and there has been a small increase in the income from investments. To the latter there has been added during the year under review £600 51 per cent Treasury Stock, 2008/12, which was purchased partly out of the legacy bequeathed to the Association by the late G. C. Thomson, Q.C., of Canada, and partly with money hitherto held upon Deposit Receipt. 

The Council have gratefully acknowledged donations received from the following:- 

The following subscriptions were paid by Constituent Bodies during 1963:

Chairman’s Remarks 

HEDGES. 

This topic was referred to at some length in our last Annual Report and is one about which the Council continues to be concerned. It seems that hedgerow timber will go on steadily disappearing because the expense of keeping up hedges is leading to their being replaced by posts and wire. It is hoped, however, that trees will be planted at the corners where adjacent fields meet, as much of this land cannot be ploughed. 

LITTER. 

The only legislation on the subject of litter for many years was the Litter Act of 1958, which originated as a Private Member’s Bill and the scope of which was seriously restricted, otherwise it would not have been given any Government support. The Council consider that little further progress will be made in dealing with the litter menace until the Government introduces up-to-date legislation to meet Scotland’s needs.
