Annual Outing

Our last outing was on the weekend of 21/22 April 2024. We visited: the Verdant Works in Dundee; the House of Dun; Cultybraggan Camp, Comrie and Dunblane. Regrettably, due to changes complicating transport and hospitality services since covid, we are suspending the outing in the form of a weekend away. We reserve the possibility of making alternative arrangements and are open to suggestions.
