News: Access to maps and plans at West Register House

Access to several thousand topographical, architectural and engineering plans at the National Archives of Scotland (NAS) will be affected by a change in storage arrangements over the next few months.

The plans are those referenced RHP1-5999, which are normally stored at West Register House (WRH), in Charlotte Square, Edinburgh. These have been temporarily transferred to our outstore at Thomas Thomson House on the outskirts of Edinburgh. This move has been carried out to allow the existing plan chests to be upgraded.
