Group 7 - Tyndrum Gold Mine (Glen Cononish)
Here's just another example of a site which shows similar links in terms of landscape use and resources. It is similar in that it is also situated within a National park and is a popular tourist destination. Unlike Aviemore, a recent discovery of gold has become a controversial topic of discussion as it involves drastic changes in the landscape in order to extract these materials. Aviemore has also faced landscape changes and social impact in the past.
Below is a link to newspaper articles and also a 1 hour documentary really worth watching.
