Group labelled ‘astroturfing front’ for US golf developers
A community group bidding to create a bitterly disputed #golf course has been attacked as an “astroturfing front” for sharing an address with the US developers tipped to build it – and because the group plans to disband if the bid is successful.

Dornoch is a real jewel on Sutherland's east coast. It is bypassed by the A9 and all too easily overlooked. The castle, now a hotel, was built opposite the cathedral as a bishop's palace. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/dornoch/dornoch/index.html

Occupying a prime location in the centre of Dornoch, on the east coast of Sutherland, beautiful Dornoch Cathedral has been in use since 1239, though much of what you see today dates back to 1835-7. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/dornoch/cathedral/index.html

Mike #Keiser, the #US #billionaire who wants to ruin the environmentally important #CoulLinks near #Dornoch for the sake of a golf course, is a #ClimateChange denier (you're probably not surprised to learn). But for publicity purposes, he's a "committed environmentalist' (via @theferret)

I see there are plans, yet again, to destroy #CoulLinks, #Embo, near #Dornoch, to create a #golf course. Similar plans were thrown out by a public enquiry 3 years ago- so why wasn't that the end of it? What looks like a misuse of the #planning process must be creating lots of uncertainty in a lovely area of #Scotland

Was browsing photos from past travels to find something to post for #TombTuesday and found this photo I took at the graveyard in the ground of the cathedral in #Dornoch, #Scotland. It is not a tomb, but an ancient cloth measuring tool.
""Plaiden ell (taylor's measure) for measuring cloth at the fairs and markets held on this site since medieval times."
Interesting that they held fairs and markets in a graveyard. 🤔
