Glen has been working on sketching out an inhabited vine scroll which will be a bench housing a QR code giving visitors access to Northumbrian period Whithorn.
We've been at the Heritage Trust Network Conference 2023 and meeting lots of building preservation trusts and projects!
Thanks to Shaun for showcasing Whithorn ReBuild to pupils of S3 at the Douglas-Ewart High School. It was great to be involved!
Another launch is imminent! The oak components of the faering, whose final stages and fit-out are being completed by Chris and Adam, are ready to be installed.
Lift off!!! We are now live!!! A huge thank you to Nathan for all his hard work on creating the website! We hope you like it!

The countdown begins!
The team has been making bespoke oars for our boat. Here we see varying thicknesses that were achieved by hand with Mihai's eye for detail. We can't wait to test these in the near future!
Nearly there!
Getting closer to launch time!
Coming soon!!!
We are delighted to announce we have been shortlisted for the Employee Choice Award at the Living Wage Scotland Awards to be held next month. #LivingWage
There were some busy scenes at the stone carving shelter today as the Douglas-Ewart High School took on some relief carving challenges. Proving that masons have been on this site for a very long time, an unusual mason's mark was found in a pile of garden stone!
These two rather handsome chimney breasts in green granite are rigs which Gregor and Rory have been working on, to create full size simulations for trainees learning to point those narrow ashlar joints - which will be required as part of formal certificated learning in masonry.
Busy scenes at the Stranraer Oyster Festival around our stand. Adam and Mihai are flying the flag for the team!
Despite the rain, Rebuilders from the Douglas-Ewart High School were at work, repairing their future workshop, which had dilapidated walls and a collapsed roof only weeks ago!
ReBuild are getting ready for the Stranraer Oyster Festival : why not stop by and see what we do for young people, or ask us a question about services we offer!
The team of masons have made an exciting discovery at 9 High Street : a graffiti date of 1798, which takes the house back to an earlier date than was supposed - we had initially supposed the house dated from the early 19th Century.
Just as the rains may return, the team have created a roof for their stonework shelter, out of "gutters" made of larch and hollowed out by them, with assistance from the Douglas-Ewart High School.
To mark the route through the woods, the team have installed countryside waymarkers on posts, as this area can be quite well grown with bracken and foliage, so it will keep walkers on the right track. #walkthewhithornway All Roads Lead to Whithorn
