Who and When
Members of the SPAB living and working in Scotland decided to form their own
semi autonomous group in 1995.
Why
Scotland has her own buildings traditions, architectural language and property
laws, which are best dealt with locally.
What
Members of SPAB in Scotland get all the benefits of SPAB membership plus a dedicated
series of
events, both technical and jolly 'north of the border'.
For more information on SPAB in Scotland and how to get involved, please contact
