Event Date

The event has passed.

Part of the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Museum of Lead Mining.

Talk – Historic graveyards are full of life: stone libraries brimming with stories and experiences that connect us people, places and times past. Join me for a whistle-stop tour of some of the Scottish graveyards I’ve investigated alongside local volunteers. My aim is to inspire you to mine the treasure on your own doorstep and to share your graveyard knowledge and interests with me and your neighbours.
