Stephen was formerly a diving archaeologist as part of the Mary Rose staff excavation team and latterly spent thirteen years working on coastal survey boats undertaking diving inspection and hydrographic survey of historic shipwreck sites within UK Territorial Seas for HM Govt.

A research member of the Scottish Institute of Maritime Studies at the University of St Andrews until 2003, Stephen has been part of Fife Council’s Archaeological Unit for the past eighteen years.

Hannah Fleming delivered an interesting and enjoyable talk, “A round of Hickory Golf” on Monday evening.

Working for almost twenty years in golf heritage, Learning & Access Curator of the R&A World Golf Museum, Hannah only played her first round of hickory golf last year at Kingarrock Golf Course at Hill of Tarvit. The talk gave us an insight into the family who built that course and how it fits into the story of Scottish golf. By examining clubs and balls, archives, costume, trophies, and photography we discovered the stories of pioneering and legendary figures in both the men and women’s game and discussed the elements of devotees for 60O years.
