Outrageous decision. An iconic example of Scottish utopian modernism being destroyed here.

A cowardly and wasteful decision has been announced to demolish #Cumbernauld Town Centre in its entirety. It's had a hard life, but it's enormously important as an urban experiment. #Retrofitting imaginatively and well is the right thing for #carbon and #heritage.

"People want to know the truth of their own history..." @SirGeoffPalmer clip in the doc I've been making since 2016 on the #Dundas Statue in Edinburgh. Great to see him receiving international recognition @ELRECUK @crer_scotland @diana_paton @edincarib @CNN @SlaveryMuseum

#FolkloreThursday The two birch species are among the first trees to come into leaf each year and are connected with fertility and spring. It was also thought to be a purifier, with birch twigs used to sweep away spirits, marking it as the species used to make witches brooms.
