Looking forward to fascinating programme at Society of Antiquaries of Scotland & Archaeology Scotland #ARP2025 conference & presenting about Perth #Charterhouse Project (collaborative endeavour between UHI Centre for History, Richard Oram StirlingHistHeritPol, Gavin Lindsay, Perth & Kinross Archives, AOC Archaeology Group & the local community)

Excellent opening papers #ARP2025 on early finds of varying scales from the monumental Ness of Brodgar to fascinating micro-archaeology in a Bronze Age Hoard at Rosemarkie. Enjoying my forays as a historian interloper @ archaeology conference & gaining hugely valuable insights.

Grwat second morning session @ #ARP2025 - particularly inspired by the The Govan Stones 🛡👑 University of Glasgow student presentations about their community collaboration work, including compiling a fieldwork guide for volunteers, supporting wellbeing on site & an oral history of Old Govan.

Had a wonderful and inspirational day at Society of Antiquaries of Scotland & Archaeology Scotland #ARP2025 conference. I have learnt so much, now brimming with new ideas & made some great new contacts to feed back into Perth Charterhouse Project. Many thanks to all involved for a great day 😀
