– Cliff Hague looks at the small towns that fall into the gap between Scotland\u2019s urban and rural policy, many of which have to cope with having lost their traditional economic base. \u2018Their strength\u2019, Hague suggests, \u2018is their diversity\u2019.<\/p>\n

– Sarah Kettles writes about the small town of Brechin\u2019s use of the Heritage Lottery Fund\u2019s Townscape Heritage Initiative and Historic Scotland\u2019s Conservation Area Regeneration Scheme.<\/p>\n

– Simon Gilmour writes about the future of archaeology in Scotland at a time when Scottish historic environment policy is being reviewed and Scotland\u2019s heritage data body, the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland is to merge with Historic Scotland.<\/p>\n
