Camilty Wind Farm
the setting. The level of effect is therefore assessed as small. The effect of the proposed
wind farm on the SM is slight adverse.
10.5.82 SM9700 Tashieburn, horse engine platform 50 m NE of, is located on the northern side of
Tashieburn Road, at about 265 m AOD, some 9.8 km west of the western boundary of the
proposed wind farm. The SM comprises the remains of an early 19th century horse-engine
platform associated with Tashieburn Coal Mine, visible as an upstanding feature. The
platform represents the remains of a horse-gin.
10.5.83 The horse gin was not designed to have a setting and its current setting is unintentional. The
setting of the SM primarily comprises its relationship with the adjacent former coalpit. Views
towards the proposed wind farm are obtainable. The SM is of high importance. There would
be no physical effect on the SM. There would be an effect which would alter the setting of the
SM. The change would be detectable but would not fundamentally or materially compromise
the ability to understand the setting. The level of effect is therefore assessed as small. The
effect of the proposed wind farm on the SM is slight adverse.
10.5.84 SM11227 Woodmuir Farm, coke ovens and reservoir 600 m SSE of is located at Woodmuir
Plantation, some 7.9 km to the west of the boundary of the proposed wind farm. The
monument comprises a bank of coke ovens and associated reservoir and chimney situated
alongside a former mineral railway.
10.5.85 The complex was not designed to have a setting and its current setting is unintentional. The
setting of the SM is restricted by being located in plantation woodland. Views towards the
proposed wind farm are unobtainable. The SM is of high importance. There would be no
physical effect on the SM and no effect on its setting. The level of effect is therefore assessed
as no change. The effect of the proposed wind farm on the asset is none.
10.5.86 A group of hut circles and Cairns is located at Hare Law, including SM11230 Hare Law, cairn
730 m SSE of Wester Yardhouses, located some 9.6 km to the south-west of the boundary of
the proposed wind farm, SM11231 Wester Yardhouses, cairn 630 m S of, located some 9.7
km to the south-west of the boundary of the proposed wind farm, SM11232 Craigiehall, hutcircle
630 m ESE of, located some 9.9 km to the south-west of the boundary of the proposed
wind farm, SM11233 Wester Yardhouses, hut-circle 470 m SSE of, located some 9.45 km to
the south-west of the boundary of the proposed wind farm and SM11236 Wester
Yardhouses, hut-circles and cairns 270 m SSW of, located some 9.4 km to the south-west of
the boundary of the proposed wind farm.
10.5.87 The setting of the SMs is primarily their relationship with each other. Views towards the
proposed wind farm obtainable. The SM is of high importance. There would be no physical
effect on the SMs. There would be an effect on their setting. The change would be detectable
but would not fundamentally or materially compromise the ability to understand the setting.
The level of effect is therefore assessed as small. The effect of the proposed wind farm on
the assets is slight adverse.
Listed Buildings
10.5.88 There are 5 Category A and 27 Category B Listed Buildings between 5 and 10 km of the
proposed wind farm and within the ZTV.
10.5.89 HB number 14209, Loganlea House is listed at Category B and located some 6.9 km northwest
of the proposed wind farm within the built development of Loganlea.
