Join us for a free, fun family activity combining science and history. In 1306, Robert the Bruce and the Red Comyn walked into Greyfriars Monastery but only one of them walked out. Who killed the Comyn? Meet medieval characters and hear their story, then try some modern forensic science techniques to help piece together just what happened.

Along with trying out chromatography experiments on ink, studying clothes fibres, fingerprints and footprints, you can also handle replica medieval artefacts and see original objects from the time, even some of the bones of Robert the Bruce.

This is a free event, no need to book, just drop in any time between 11am and 3pm.
