Alastair Iain Maxwell Penman (SH 55-59). Elizabeth Penman has kindly submitted the following notice: “After a long illness Alastair died at home with his wife in attendance. He was known locally as a great Galloway historian and archaeologist, having worked at Whithorn, he had his own Archaeological Digs at Buittle Tower near Dalbeattie and Newbarns Estate near Colvend under the name Stewartry Archaeological Trust. His passing will be a loss to many who attended his lectures and his excavations. He has taught many archaeological students over the last thirty to forty years. His family have lost a loving husband, Dad, stepdad, grandad, brother and a great scholar.”
