HER Workshop

Led by Susan Kruse of ARCH

Dingwall Community Library

The HER is Highland Council's on line database of all known heritage. It has a vast amount of information on Highland heritage for all ages, compiled from many sources by various people. This workshop will introduce the HER, showing you how to search for information.

As part of Highland Archaeology Festival 2018, people are being encouraged to adopt an HER monument, by submitting pictures, extra information or corrections. This workshop will show you how to do that.
