Time for another #WhereisitWednesday. For the first few weeks we are looking at images from the Parks Department, so there are going to be a lot of trees and flowers, but also some other places of interest. Do you know where this was taken?

We were sorry to hear of the recent death of actress and writer Barbara Clegg who spent part of her early career at @DundeeRep (This comes from a December 1949 programme). Her TV writing credits included scripts for #CoronationStreet #Crossroads and #DoctorWho #Archives

Happy New Year! It’s a bitterly cold day in St Andrews, although it clearly has some way to go to match this photograph of the Old Course, taken sixty-five years ago in January 1960. Image Courtesy of @StAndrewsUniLib, ID GMC-11-26-3
