Urquhart castle......
Highlander Daz was kind enough to post this link to a commercial development behind this famous landmark. (I've started this new thread to avoid diverting Mike1's "Where does it end" thread.)
What is being done at Urquhart, and potentially other historic landmarks, is shameful. Are there no restrictions on commercial development at historic landmarks such as this? Is there just so much history that some of it can be sacrificed to the whims of big business and politicians? Does the architect have no moral difficulties with doing this. This smacks of backroom wheeling and dealing. What's worse, it would appear that this may be just the beginning. Development can be a positive thing when it's done right but this sort of project is what tarnishes the reputation of developers in general. Sad all around.
