Help to keepcottage alive

THE hunt is on to create a group to help keep Brownsbank Cottage near Biggar open all year round to poets.

At the moment the cottage is home to Brownsbank Retreats during the summer months, which sees poets take their place in the cottage over the holiday period.

However, Andrew McCallum, from the Brownsbank Committee, hopes that the newly formed Friends of Brownsbank Cottage could spend time there between November and April.
