NORTH EAST WEEKLY The closure of the Tullos processing plant in Aberdeen is ‘deeply disappointing’, says NFU Scotland. Muller UK & Ireland confirmed that it will close its processing plants in East Kilbride and Aberdeen, with the loss of 255 posts from the sites, affecting 43 dairy farms in the north east. NFU Scotland has been working with Muller UK & Ireland since the company’s initial announcement of its restructuring plans at the end of March to action a feasibility study by Opportunity North East to look at securing a viable future for dairy farming in that area. As detailed by Muller for those wishing to continue their contracts with Muller, a 1.75 pence per litre transport charge would be applied for the non-aligned and co-operative producers, to move the milk to Bell-shill, near Glasgow, for processing. The Union had called on Muller to pull the haulage cost plans, to no avail. Jean McLean, NFU Scotland’s Milk Committee representative for the North East commented: “The announcement by Muller to close its Tullos plant in Aberdeenshire is deeply disappointing and could impact the viability of the dairy industry in the north east of Scotland.

From Page 1 “Many businesses are not in a good place and this will leave considering if they have a fu-ture in dairying. NFU Scotland has been working to reach a resolution since the original announcement and will continue to work with Opportunity North East which will continue its work on the feasibility study. There is still full co-operation for the feasibility study to be completed, with full support of NFU Scot-land, and will seek to give options to producers.” Graeme Kilpatrick, NFU Scotland’s Milk Committee Chairman commented: “We are still awaiting answers to several questions we have posed to Muller in recent weeks. NFU Scotland has asked that if the need arises for the milk to go elsewhere other than Bellshill who will foot the bill and if the transport charges will be in-troduced to other areas of Scotland too. The transport costs should have been discussed with all those supply-ing Muller from across the UK as there is the possibility that these charges could be implemented more widely. “The Union previously spoke with the Scottish Government about investment in the dairy industry in Scotland and attracting inward investment to increase the processing capacity. NFU Scotland will take up these discussions with the new Cabinet Secretary Fergus Ewing in due course.”

Air Weapon Surrender Campaign Police Scotland has welcomed the public's response to its
Air Weapon Surrender Campaign, as it announced the
number handed in during the first week, and displayed a
number of them prior to destruction.
Assistant Chief Constable Mark Williams revealed the
number of weapons handed in to the 72 designated
stations from Lerwick to Stranraer in the first week alone
is 2301.
He said: "This is a fantastic start to the three week
campaign. It's great to see so many weapons being hand-
ed in and I'd like to thank responsible members of the
public for surrendering them.
"Remember there is still two weeks left to run and I'd like
to appeal to anyone who possesses an air weapon and doesn't intend licensing it to hand it in to one of the
designated 72 stations across Scotland.
"You can find out all you need to know about the surrender campaign on our website."
Justice Secretary Michael Matheson said: "I had the opportunity to meet with Police Scotland staff last week
and see some of the weapons that have been taken off our streets. It is extremely encouraging to know that so
many air weapons have been handed in by people who do not plan to have a licence when the new law comes
into force at the end of the year.
“I would encourage anybody with an air weapon to stay on the right side of the law by handing them in during
the surrender process or, if they wish to keep them, making sure they apply from 1 July 2016 for the right to
own an air weapon.”
Further details on the surrender campaign and process together with information surrounding the forthcoming
application process can be found on the Police Scotland and Scottish Government websites.

Uncovering Aden Country Park’s lost history –
archaeologists attempt to solve a mystery The Book of Deer Project has for several years been carry-
ing out archaeological work to help understand the early
development of the village of Old Deer in Aberdeenshire.
The project is named after the Book of Deer which is one
of Scotland’s oldest and most important manuscripts now
housed in Cambridge University Library.
The book was apparently in the possession of an early
Pictish monastery at Old Deer circa 1100 AD and it is
thought to have been made there too. This monastery has
otherwise left no trace of its existence.
However during the search for the monastery several other
sites have been found and this year’s dig hopes to uncover
more information about these sites, and maybe, just maybe
uncover the monastery itself!
During a 2015 dig archaeologists uncovered a T-shaped
building 23.5m long and circa 7m wide with an extension
6.5m wide. The wall foundations are constructed of large
stones and some small stones, substantial enough for a
large 2-storey building.
In places the large foundation stones have remained above
ground. These large stones may have formed the seating
for an Episcopalian meeting house.
25m to the west of the first building is a rectangular
building with similar construction methods as the T-
shaped structure, and it has a stone floor surviving in the
east room, with at least one room partition dividing the
building into two rooms. The room with the stone floor may possibly be for animal use.
It is hoped this year’s excavation will date the building, and help answer the question of who built it and when,
and what it was used for
Alison Cameron, Archaeologist directing the project, said “We don't have any direct dating for these buildings
but a Charles I/II bawbee came out of soil inside the T-shaped building, but there were also finds from
prehistory to the 1970s!
Bruce Mann, Archaeologist for Aberdeenshire Council, said “There is a reference to a ‘lost tower house of the
Keiths’ who once owned all of the Aden estate and surrounding land. If this is a late medieval building,
possibly the lost House, then that would not rule out the stones being reused over the site as a mid-late 18th-
century meeting house. It’s certainly a great chance for the local community to help solve a mystery.”
Students from Aberdeen and Edinburgh Universities, local volunteers, and members of the Book of Deer
Project will work with professional archaeologists during the two weeks on site.
240 primary school pupils will be taking part on the 7th-10th and 13th June, the Enhanced Learning Unit from
Mintlaw Academy on the 14th June, and other pupils from the Academy between the 14th -17th June. The
pupils will be helping to uncover the rectangular building which has not been seen in full for several hundred
years. They will learn archaeological techniques and handle and identify any finds.
Aberdeenshire Museums Service from Mintlaw will attend the dig on 13th June and bring a selection of local
finds for the children to handle.
This year’s project is funded by Aberdeenshire Council Archaeology Service and hosted by The Book of Deer
Project.
Visitors are welcome to the site which will be signposted from Aden Country Park car park and café. The
excavations will run from 6th -19th June 2016. Volunteers are welcome and full training will be given.
