Celts and Romans exhibition opens in Kirkintilloch


From Kirkintilloch-herald.co.uk:


A NEW exhibition has opened at Kirkintilloch's Auld Kirk Museum.


'On the Frontier' puts the spotlight on the clash bewteen the Celts and the Romans and aims to challenge people's perceptions of East Dunbartonshire's heritage.

Sculptor Tom Allan aims to explore the conflict and interaction between the Celts and Roman forces along the Antonine Wall.

The museum is actually sited on the line of the wall, which was built by the Romans in the second century AD and was recently recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
