Welcome to Heritage North

Welcome to the  July edition of Heritage North. Here we have stories about the developments and exhibitions from museums and heritage centres throughout the Highlands and Islands:  Nairn Museum is excited about the return of the automata, and so should you be. Seallam! in Harris has been doing sterling work in compiling emigration records from the Western Isles, an invaluable resource to local historians and genealogists. Whilst volunteers in Orkney have become anabled to research wartime archeology, with the help of Scapa Flow partnership.  Plus another chance to review the new Heritage North facebook page.
