An intriguing hint of what lies beneath - these are my photos from the copse at the centre of Castlecary Roman fort on the Antonine Wall. The stones sticking out of the ground are the remains of the fort's Principia (Headquarters) which was excavated in 1902 and later reburied. #RomanFortThursday

Surprised to find surviving remains at #Castlecary fireclay mine #Allandale that served Stein’s brickworks. Sadly not dressed for and without appropriate footwear for exploring through dense vegetation but definitely engine platform + adit possibly a fan drift. Needs a winter visit #MiningLandscapes

Just passing Castlecary now. Hey Gotham City, I'll see you very soon.
(For the uninitiated- Gotham City means Glasgow- not only has the city doubled as Glasgow several times, but several Batman artists have based Gotham on Glasgow).

Today as Lib Dem spokesperson, I urged the Govt to protect British farmers like The Slow Farming Company near #CastleCary, who proudly uphold high animal welfare standards. Amid a flurry of trade deals, we mustn't let poor welfare practices from abroad undermine our farmers or compromise standards.
