SWSARF Events

Upcoming events

We are delighted to invite you to the second set of consultation events for the South West Scotland Archaeological Research Framework (SWSARF). These two events will explore the later prehistory draft chapters of the framework which will soon be available for ScARF users to read and review. 

Both events will cover the same material from the Iron Age and Roman draft chapters and offer you the chance to be involved in the creation and consultation of the early prehistory chapters of this highly anticipated framework. The events will involve short talks and group discussions, and we are keen to hear feedback, suggestions and new perspectives on the drafts.

Please note that, while you are welcome to attend both events, they will cover the same material and follow the same structure. 

The events are free to attend, and tea and coffee will be provided.

Email us at scarf@socantscot.org if you have any questions. 

Past events

The first SWSARF events took place in 2025 on the 27th September at Brodick Public Hall on the Isle of Arran, and on the 4th October at CatStrand, New Galloway. These workshops covered the prehistory chapters, with the results of the discussions being fed into the draft chapters for the Palaeolithic & Mesolithic, Neolithic and Chalcolithic & Bronze Age, which are now available to read and comment on.
