The motion

That the Parliament recognises that the Rediscovering the Antonine Wall Project was voted the top Outdoors Attraction at the Association for Heritage Interpretation’s Engaging People Awards; notes that an expert panel praised the Arniebog distance stone and the Silvanus sculpture, which is a towering metal depiction of a Roman soldier’s head, at Nethercroy in North Lanarkshire, for capturing the imagination of residents, and understands that the replica distance stone and sculpture, which help raise awareness of the area’s heritage among the community and visitors to Croy Hill, is already proving to be a big draw to the area.
