The sandstone masonry drip moulding above 140 Gorgie Road has failed and some fallen on to the pavement below. Thankfully no-one seems to have been hurt @edinhelp @GDCC_

It was splendid afternoon last year chatting with @StoneMePodcast about the fantastic @welovehistory @HistEnvScot Cairn Holy And now you can listen to the episode, either through your favourite podcast app or via stonemepodcast.com/programme…
Join me as I visit the two stunning tombs of Cairn Holy outside Dumfries and hear an incredible theory about how short their useful life might have really been. #neolithic #archaeology #cycletouring @HistEnvScot

In the 1990s, experts identified pottery from Antonine Wall sites which were made in a north African style over 1,800 years ago 🥘 This includes dishes of a brazier style, a type of cooking more popular in north-west Africa than northern Europe: digitscotland.com/uncovering… #BHM24
