Ballone Castle
description: Ballone Castle was built in 1590 on the cliff edge above the raised beach, and has dramatic views out across the Moray Firth. The Dunbars from Morayshire built the original Z plan castle which was extended in 1623 by the MacKenzies to create a brew house and bakery. After the 1745 rebellion, it was soon roofless and by the mid-19th century had lost most of its fine details.It was bought in 1990 by Lachlan and Annie Stewart who set about restoring it as their family home, creating a fusion of authentic medieval with ANTA's 21st century Scottish contemporary aesthetic. There will be guided tours every 40 minutes which don't need to be booked in advance. The gardens will also be open.

Barclay Viewforth Church of Scotland
description: Barclay Church was built in 1862-64 to the powerful Victorian Gothic design of Frederick Thomas Pilkington following an architectural competition. Heavily influenced by John Ruskin, Pilkington mixed northern medieval elements with those from Gothic architecture in France and Italy. By skilful design, he used the tight irregular sloping site to full advantage. Externally, the 76m high steeple dominates the view from Tollcross, acting as a focus for several converging streets, and is prominent in the city�s whole southwest skyline. Indeed, the only steeple in Edinburgh that is higher is that of St Mary�s Cathedral. The exterior of the church is characterised by its multitude of gables, door openings, arches, stair-towers and window tracery, all surmounted by a highly complex roof. Internally, the vast Church Sanctuary is broadly heartshaped with an elaborate timber roof structure supported by four massive pillars. The seating is arranged in arcs at ground level and in two tiers of galleries, focused on the pulpit. The church is much admired for its wealth of decorative features, particularly the barley-sugar wood carvings to the gallery fronts, the bow-fronted marble pulpit, the stenciled decoration on the roof and the lacy gothic organ case.

Barnton Quarry ROTOR Bunker
description: During WWII, Barnton Quarry was the home of the RAF sector operations centre for the Turnhouse Sector of 13 Group, RAF Fighter Command.

The site is currently under restoration, but the RAF operations room of the surface WWII SOC will be open to the public. GLOBAL CONNECTIONS Global Connections, albeit negative ones, are the entire reason for this facility. Initially set up due to the fear of Nazi bombing during the Second World War, the facility was greatly extended and repurposed in the early 1950’s to counter the emerging Cold War threat. ACTIVITIES Information boards, numerous photographs, slideshows and the restoration group volunteers will share the history of the site.

Erskine Beveridge described it as ‘a long irregular mound of loose stones, lying approximately east and west’. He noted that this barp was higher and wider at the east end, suggesting that there may have once been a chamber there with a ‘large flat stone at the exterior base’ and a large rectangular opening presenting a sign of a possible entrance passage. He also recorded that the surface of the ground was excessively ‘pitted by many slight hollows’. The regularity, size and shape of these hollows suggests the original Neolithic structure, although he noted that none of the ‘upright boundary slabs’ so characteristic of such cairns remained.

Barrs Irn-Bru Factory - Fully Booked
description: Barr Soft Drinks has been making, moving, marketing and selling some of the UK’s best-loved soft drinks brands for over 140 years. The first Barr family soft drinks business was established in Falkirk in 1875 and was soon followed by a second family business in Glasgow in 1887. In 1901 both Barr soft drinks businesses, Robert Barr Falkirk and A.G. Barr and Co. Glasgow, jointly launched their original recipe IRON BREW. The phonetic spelling IRN-BRU was introduced in 1947 following concern over proposed changes to food labelling regulations and IRN-BRU has since gone on to become the much loved and popular brand that it is today. Still made to its original secret recipe, IRN-BRU sits alongside our wide range of popular soft drinks brands, including Tizer, Barr’s Originals, Strathmore spring water and Rubicon. With over £50m invested across the site over the last 10 years, our Cumbernauld facility incorporates our head office, a state of the art manufacturing facility as well as a modern automated high-bay warehouse and logistics operation.

Barry Mill
description: Peaceful Barry Mill might be a haven of tranquility now, but it was once the beating heart of a 19th-century rural community. The water-powered mill produced oatmeal and animal feed, as well as providing work for local people, right up until 1982. Step inside the mill and discover how engineering ingenuity provided a means to save the ‘daily grind’ of producing your own flour and meal. These ideas gave birth to the machinery of the industrial revolution. Learn how trade shifted from a bartering system to monetary exchange. See the different types of food that people have lived on over the centuries, and watch the wheel turn and machinery move every day the mill is open – just as it’s done for generations. Barry Mill is now one of only a handful of mills powered by water. Rebuilt after a fire around 1814, it is probably the largest and finest example of its type still in operation in Scotland.

Beith: Fairview, 18 Reek Street
description: Mr and Mrs Dickson lived in an old, draughty property in Beith for over 30 years before deciding to demolish it and rebuild a brand new air-tight and energy efficient home. The property will be 3 years old this October and throughout the project, the Dickson's lived in a caravan in their back garden. The family incorporated many renewable technologies along with energy efficiency measures in the home. There is no central heating system in the property because Mr and Mrs Dickson over specified many aspects of the property, including the walls which are thicker than the required standard to allow more insulation and air flow. There is a 12kW wood burning stove in the main living area which is used in winter and this is able to heat a lot of the property. They have a 4kW Solar Photovoltaic system. This consists of 16 panels situated on a South-facing roof. Mr and Mrs Dickson have adapted their lifestyle slightly to optimise their solar panels, including using the bulk of their electricity during the day when they are generating electricity. They also installed an internal Air Source Heat Pump to heat their hot water. This works well in the property because there are few variations in room temperature and it is higher than outside temperatures. The heat pump is accompanied by a 300 litre hot water tank. There is an LCD control display but the couple opt to manually turn on the water heating in the afternoon for a few hours. Because the tank is fully insulated, it is able to retain heat very well and if the shower is used in the morning, it still needs to be mixed with cold water because it is too hot!
