Welcome!

2012 looks to be as busy as 2011 if not more so.  We have big projects continuing with the National Trust for Scotland and Woodland Trust Scotland, involving contract work at Canna, Mar Lodge and Spinningdale.  2011 saw us complete community interpretive plans for Dalwhinnie, Applecross and the Carron Ironworks site near Larbert, and we continue planning work with the community in Nethy Bridge for Abernethy Old Kirk.  Lots of interesting audio work to keep the ex-BBC associates happy!

Many more interesting tenders out there too...
