Fortifying the Forth from the French Wars to the Second World War

Start: Tuesday 29 November 2022 19:00

End: Tuesday 29 November 2022 20:30

Join us for our next evening talk!

We’re delighted to be welcoming Ron Morris to the Museum, who’ll take us on what he describes as a whistlestop tour of the Forth’s coastal defences, and discuss their significance in the context of Scotland’s military and naval history.

Following this talk, there’ll be an opportunity to ask questions, as well as to privately view our “Landscapes of War” exhibition in the Exhibition Gallery.

This talk is free, with donations for teas and coffees. Please reserve your ticket on Eventbrite.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Ron Morris is a local historian and co-author of co-author of The Fortification of the Firth of Forth 1880-1977: ‘the Most Powerful Naval Fortress in the British Empire’.

Landscapes of War is on display until the 12th December. Entry is free with Museum admission.

If you have any questions about this event, please get in touch with us on social media or via kathy@scotfishmuseum.org.
