Come and join us at East Lothian Archaelogy and Heritage Fortnight 31/8/24 to 15/9/24

North Berwick Environment and Heritage Trust is taking part in the East Lothian Archaeology and Heritage Fortnight which takes place from 31st August – 15th September 2024. The link to the full programme is at the end of this post.

The programme is packed full of exciting activities and visits to heritage sites, so do have a look through. We’re especially delighted that the programme includes three events at St Andrew’s, Kirk Ports, North Berwick – all arranged and hosted by NBEHT. The events are as follows:

Wednesday 4th September at 2pm – a guided tour of the historic church and graveyard. Discover the fascinating tales of people buried in the graveyard and hear about our plans for the future of the kirk. Led by historian, Joy Dodd, and archaeologist, Olwyn Owen.

Saturday 7th September at 11am – a guided tour, as above.

Friday 13th September at 10am – a tour of the kirk, looking to the future. Come and hear about the plans for the kirk and the conservation challenges that lie ahead. We’d also love to hear about your memories of the kirk and your hopes and ideas for its future. Led by conservation architect, Fraser Bell, and archaeologist, Olwyn Owen.

We hope to see you there! Everyone is welcome, no need to book for any of the above, and the events are all free.
