Scottish Legal History Group

Description

The Scottish Legal History Group is a society dedicated to Scottish legal history, open to both academic and non-academic members. It was formed in 1981 to promote interest in and further knowledge of Scottish legal history, and generally to encourage its study. Founded at the University of Edinburgh, the Group held its first meeting on 16 December 1981. Its main activity has been to hold an annual day-conference, which normally takes place in the Advocates' Library in Edinburgh at the beginning of October. From 2000 to 2014 the Group was based at the School of Law of the University of Glasgow, which continues to host its website. Those interested in attending the annual conference, or in joining the Group's mailing list, are invited to contact the current secretary at Edinburgh Napier University.
