Archaeology handicrafts and science and technology sites to visit Peebles

In the gardens of the Barony Castle Hotel, a very strange sight awaits visitors: a three-dimensional map of Scotland, made of stone and measuring 50m by 40m. Built between 1974 and 1979 by a small group of Poles, including students, it is the brainchild of Jan Tomasik, a war veteran of Polish origin, born in Krakow. Now in free and open access, it is to be seen if you pass by.
