The Scottish building stone industry has bequeathed a rich and diverse legacy of stone-built structures which embody the historic fabric of our cities, dwellings, monuments, places of worship and infrastructure. However, proper maintenance of stone buildings and structures poses many challenges. Paul Everett will present a synopsis of Scotland’s history of building in stone, set against a geological background, and will demonstrate how geological knowledge and understanding is helping to maintain and conserve our country’s priceless stone-built heritage.
