St Andrew’s House 70th anniversary

September 3, 2009 by  

3828994257_3f88a11de5The Scottish Government has marked the 70th anniversary of St Andrew’s House (opened the day after war was declared on 4 September 1939) with a special page on its website, and by launching a fascinating flickr site with hundreds of images of Thomas Tait’s building over the decades. The Historic Scotland website also features a beautifully-detailed history of the controversy surrounding its construction, St Andrew’s House: An Edinburgh Controversy 1912-1939, by David Walker. Friday’s Scotsman also has a feature on the building by yours truly.
