David Livingstone Birthplace

Summer Refurbishment Update

July 2018

Dlb 360x300

We hope you are all enjoying the sunny weather! We wanted to give you an update on the refurbishment project - building works are now likely to start later in July & this is when part of the site will no longer be accessible.

Though you will still be able to get onto part of the site for walks. We will keep you updated on timescales and thanks to everyone for their patience with the delay - we can’t wait to get started!

We are very grateful to our key funders the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Historic Environment Scotland and the Scottish Government for their support in helping us deliver the Birthplace Project.

Note: Please note that David Livingstone Birthplace (and the David Livingstone Trust) is no longer part of National Trust Scotland (NTS). NTS members will therefore no longer receive discounted/free entry to the Birthplace Museum.
