Items related to The Shaping of Scotland
Sub-title: Eighteenth Century Patterns of Land Use and Settlement. Little remains today to give any idea of the landscape or the life in rural Scotland two centuries ago. For a time Scotland was one of the fastest-changing parts of Europe. New Villages were created. A variety of agricultural improvements, including water-powered industry, brought fresh capital to landowners and new styles of of management to their estates. R J Brien descibes the new disposition of land, the crops and their use, the animals, the people - how they lived from day to day, their beliefs, their food, their work. As their work changed, so often did their location: they moved into village, town and further afield, thus changing the family ans social patterns of the nation. Chapters on the run-rigs, the agricultural revolution, the lowland clearances, crops and their use.
