Auld Wives Lifts on Craigmaddie Muir on the outskirts of Glasgow. These three massive stones, one balanced of top of the other two sit in their own natural aphitheatre and are covered on carvings, some of which is quite recent, but other may be thousands of years old. The rocks are though to be a stone age monument by some, but a natural rock formation by others. Whatever their origin, they're always worth a visit.

Scotland has made a skate park in Livingston into a Category B listed structure.

It doesn't make it so protected that it can't be used. Instead, it protects it from being demolished and it puts an onus on the council to maintain it 👍

Auld Wives Lifts, Craigmaddie Muir, just north of Glasgow.

Once thought to be a stone age monument, this massive rock balanced on top of two smaller ones is now thought to be a natural rock formation created suring the last ice age. Either way, it's still pretty impressive and well worth the trek out of Glasgow to see.
