Orkney

Miscellaneous

In the Orkney Room there is a black box on a shelf in the far corner that contains the record cards for our NMRS up till the early 70's. This contains more information than online CANMORE as that in places only gives a bibliographical reference instead of actual quote. Some of the cards also include maps,sketches, plans, photos. Though these are all in reduced form only the photos can occasionally be unclear. The 1946 RCAMS Inventory is also here along with the standard work on Orkney's chambered cairns (not the most recent version) and Hedge's volume on our brochs (only detailed for those he accepts but very detailed for these). wideford Posted by wideford
