One created space : the sublime St Ninian's Isle, which lies off the southwest coast of mainland Shetland, where 28 silver objects from an early Christian monastic settlement were found by a schoolboy during an excavation in 1958. What has been described as 'the most important single discovery in Scottish archaeology' is returning to Shetland for the first time in over 40 years, and will be on display in Lerwick Museum next week. There is great excitement about this and I will definately be going along to see the treasure. Sunday 29 June 2008
