About us
How we work to protect Scotland’s heritage.
The Engine Shed
Part of Historic Environment Scotland, the Engine Shed is a hub for digital innovation and building conservation specialists.
We are continuing to use our centre to deliver skills development and training for the heritage sector.
From Monday to Friday, we are open for Historic Environment Scotland staff and students.
The centre currently remains closed to the public while we review our outreach offer.
However, you can still hear from our experts on the Engine Shed’s newsletter, blog and Inform Friday livestreams.

Thank you
The Engine Shed has been supported by a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have been able to create Scotland’s dedicated building conservation centre. It enables us to encourage understanding of traditional building materials and skills among the public and professionals and raise standards in conservation for traditional buildings.
