The Heraldry Society
of Scotland was founded in 1977 with the objective of promoting the
study of heraldry and encouraging its correct use in Scotland and
Overseas.
The Society encourages people to
join whether they have their own arms, intend to procure arms, or
have a general interest in Scottish Heraldry. Our membership is made
up of people from around the globe with many meeting regularly in
the Society's very active Community Forum.
Meetings are held several times
during the year for lectures or visits to places of historic and
heraldic interest, both in Scotland and in other countries.
The Society is privileged to number
many of Her Majesty's Officers of Arms among its members and a close
liaison is maintained with The Court of the Lord Lyon. |
