Historic Environment Scotland Thanks to >100 people who packed our public meeting with Edinburgh Geological Society, Mountaineering Scotland, Cockburn Association (The Edinburgh Civic Trust) & ScotWays on Sunday to discuss how we'll fight to get the #RadicalRoad open for all to enjoy. It was agreed to launch this new petition. Please sign NOW: ramblers.org.uk/radicalroad

Lovely pic. But are they really 'plugs'?! Eroded volcanic areas always have loads of intrusions of different shapes and sizes. If it is circular (in map view) and not too big it gets called a plug and the assumption is there was a volcano above. But do we really know?

A huge thanks to the *3,650* people who signed our joint petition calling for the urgent reopening of Edinburgh's #RadicalRoad!🙏🏽 Our supporters included walkers, climbers, runners, geologists, civic leaders and leading health & safety experts! Now Historic Environment Scotland, over to you...
