We came to Kilmartin at Easter on a beautiful 'summer' day. We explored the cairns down the centre of the glen, kids running around and in and out.  It has all been messed around with by bad interpretation and intervention, turning, in one case, a chambered cairn into something more like a bomb shelter.

Yesterday I was back for NVA /The National Theatre of Scotland's Half-Life. (I don't think the title refers directly to the bomb shelter).  I got the book and map with my ticket.  When I opened the map it caught the light.  The significant locations that form Half-Life, settlements and roads are simply presented in black on white, but the contour lines are also there in a clear gloss varnish.  
Fantastic.
