Kilmartin Museum is due to reopen after major refurbishment later this Summer.
It was great to spend time with the team yesterday exploring the rock art in parts of Kilmartin Glen.
So thought you would like this image, as a reminder there are still many monuments and wonderful locations to explore in this amazing prehistoric landscape before the museum reopens.

Bought a #TempleWood candle inspired by the #Kilmartin Glen stone circle at #SquarePeg in #Lochgilphead. Made by #DryadCandleworks, it smells gorgeous - would love to see an olfactory tour of the setting of archaeological monuments through candles.
