Coronavirus closure information

Following government advice on Friday 16th March the Mountain Heritage Trust have advised their staff to work from home.

As a result, the Trust's office will be closed to researchers until further notice and our remote enquiry service will be very limited. We will still be responding to emails but will not have telephone access.

We will be making regular checks on the collections to ensure their safety and security, but will not be accessing them for researchers or enquiries until we resume work from our office base.

Thank you for your patience and understanding, we will issue updates via our website and social media channels.
