The talk is a subterranean odyssey exploring the natural and man-made heritage under our feet. It's an illustrated journey across (or perhaps under) Scotland, but there are many references to Glasgow and hopefully includes something of interest to everyone.

About Bruce Keith
Bruce Keith is a retired chartered surveyor and environmentalist, having started his professional career working on several Perthshire and Aberdeenshire estates and in Edinburgh with the Department of Agriculture. Bruce moved to Peterborough in 1996 as Chief Surveyor with English Nature, but kept his Scottish connections, retiring ten years ago as Head of Property at SSE (the Hydro Board). In his retirement, Bruce has researched and written three books combining his passion for Scottish history, geography and landscape with his interest in heritage conservation.

Time: 8pm start (immediately after AGM from 7pm-7:30pm).
Tickets: £6.00 with refreshments, no booking necessary. Cash and card payments accepted. Free for Pollokshields Heritage members.
