Last week Euan attended the Community Land Scotland conference. This year the theme was what can Scotland learn from community landowners? We find out from some of those who were taking part in the conference.

Continuing a theme of community land ownership, Mark visits Gigha. It was bought by the islanders back in 2002 and has come a long way since then. Mark chats to residents and members of the Gigha Heritage Trust about the challenges and rewards of community ownership and hears how the island has evolved over the past 16 years.

Euan finds out about the latest application for community ownership in Scotland by the Garbh Allt community initiative.

As most people will know, miners took canaries with them down the mine to warn of deadly gas. The Almond Valley Heritage Trust has continued that tradition with a modern twist as Euan found out.

Euan visits another bridge as part of Landward's favourite bridge series. This time he's at Craigellachie.
