Overview

A talk by Samantha Walker & David Strachan

Founded in 1937, the St Andrews Preservation Trust is one of the first local preservation groups to be established in Scotland. Join Trust Chair, David Strachan, and Museum Manager, Sam Walker, to explore the origins and history of the Trust, and the development of its social history museum, the St Andrews Heritage Museum & Garden, which recently underwent a £1.7m redevelopment.

Doors open from 12.30pm at the Glasite Hall on King Street. Please enter from the churchyard or the east side of the building (the lift is available from both sides but the accessible door is at the east entrance). You DO NOT need to bring a printed ticket.

Tea, coffee and biscuits will be available to purchase before the talk. Entry to the talks are free but if you would like to make a donation towards the hire of the hall, there will be a donations tin available.
