This publication, the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) guide about Heritage Pubs in Scotland, is available as a free download. Edited by Mick Slaughter, this ground-breaking publication aims to create an up-to-date snapshot of the Pub Heritage picture in Scotland.

Paul Ainsworth, Chair of the CAMRA National Pub Heritage Group: "Over the past 25 years, CAMRA has developed its national and regional inventories of historic pub interiors. These highlight the crème de la crème of interiors which have either escaped much alteration for many years or contain features of exceptional interest. "

For example, built in 1894, the Phoenix Ale House (Inverness) is of classic Scottish island bar-style whereas the Plough Inn (Rosemarkie) is a small pub rebuilt in 1907 (as with a delightfully fitted-out, virtually intact front room. This has its original semi-circular counter and simple gantry.

Included is detailed comment on all the pubs in Scotland listed on the CAMRA Pub Heritage website. The guide is freely available from the CAMRA Pub Heritage website.

Grateful thanks are given to numerous individuals, the National CAMRA Pub Heritage Group and local Archives: the latter for providing access to unique historic documentation.
