Sorry to hear that Labour/ Tory-run West Lothian Council is closing a number of swimming pools. Learned today at Broxburn that "the architects have been in already".

On this day in history. 70 years ago today, on 27 July 1953, an armistice brought about a cease-fire in the Korean War. This is the poignant Scottish Korean War Memorial in the Bathgate Hills near Linlithgow. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/lin

The Union Canal at Linlithgow. After four years' construction it opened in 1822 and its 31½ lock-free miles follow the 240ft contour from Edinburgh to Falkirk, giving it the name it was known by at the time, the "mathematical river". More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/fal

The imposing south front of Linlithgow Palace seen through its outer gate. King James V and his daughter Mary, Queen of Scots were both born here, and its origins probably date back to a royal manor house built on the site in the 1100s. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/lin

The Stones of Livingston, a monument/installation/feature in Livingston in West Lothian. We've been unable to find out much about this intriguing stone circle; but it seems that its origins are more modern than ancient. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/liv
