Verb Wellington and Moniack Mhor received over 75 applications for the inaugural Island to Island residency exchange, offered in collaboration with British Council New Zealand and the Pacific, and Edinburgh International Book Festival.

Documenting Scotland’s Historic Environment

Building recording is an essential component of heritage management. The primary purpose of this is to establish an accurate record of a building as the starting point for key decisions around repair and maintenance. This accurate record, typically in 3D, allows evaluation or monitoring of a structure’s condition, establishing the need for interventions to repair, conserve, restore or maintain the fabric.
