The Antiquaries on social media and in the press

The Society is now on social media via a Twitter account created and maintained by Valerie McClure. The intention is that as time goes on, "following" and "retweeting" will spread information on its activities.

Reports of Antiquaries meetings will also be available from time to time in the Kirkintilloch Herald courtesy of. Les Jenkins. The first to be published was a summary of the first meeting of the session - "Boundary Stones of Baldernock Parish" - Niall Logan's talk on Thursday 6th October.

It is hoped that both of these initiatives will increase our public profile.

Society Website

Following discussion at the Society's 2013 Annual General Meeting development of a Society Website was considered further by the Antiquaries' Committee. A subgroup comprising Ros McMeekin, Don Martin, Ivan Ruddock and David Graham was established to explore design options and to advise on content. Initial advice was sought from John Williamson, who has experience of setting up and maintaining websites.

Welcome to Kirkintilloch and District Society of Antiquaries

Welcome to Kirkintilloch and District Society of Antiquaries' new website.

This Society has a long history, dating back to 1933, but until now has managed without a website. Members and others will now be able to keep up-to-date with the full range of Society activities. The
Society would welcome views from the membership both on the kind of activities they wish the Society to organise and what they would like to see on the website.
