About

Cultural and built heritage are shared things. And landscapes are shaped by humans.

And there’s lots to celebrate this month. Scottish Archaeology Month (coordinated by Archaeology Scotland), and Doors Open Day (the Scottish Civic Trust), are running events across Scotland.

While you’re out there snapping photos of our heritage, there is another event which takes place every September, this one is international with a clutch of prizes:

Wiki Loves Monuments

I’ve just had a look over East Lothian and most of the listed buildings have no images attached, so for someone this should be a very easy prize to win, so long as they are cool about sharing.

Every detail of this church is packed with interest, from the joins between old and new down to the lichen growth.
