He believed buildings should belong to the landscape, not dominate it.

His work can be found in castles, country houses and churches across Scotland, always respecting history while quietly adding something new.

His greatest masterpiece isn't a palace.

It is a place of remembrance, created not to celebrate war, but to honour sacrifice.

Next time you visit **Edinburgh Castle**, step inside the **Scottish National War Memorial**.

You're standing in the legacy of **Sir Robert Lorimer**.

Long before it became famous for golf... before princes walked its streets...

This place was changing Scotland's story.

A royal welcome in the heart of the **Scottish Borders**. 👑🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

**King Charles III** visiting the historic town of **Jedburgh**—a place where Scotland's story is written in stone, from its magnificent abbey to centuries of Border history, where the **hand ba' game is a must** and the **Common Riding** keeps the tradition and community very much alive.

Royal visits come and go, but places like Jedburgh continue to remind us that history is never far away in Scotland.
