2.8 Heritage and conservation

This historiography aims to highlight some of the trends and pulses of activity in relation to heritage research as it relates directly to carved stones in Scotland. Other, broader heritage and conservation literature will feature in Sections 3–6, which in their thematic approach embrace all aspects of heritage management and conservation (see Section 1.4).
