An exhibition highlighting the contribution of the Scottish Women's Land Army and the Women's Timber Corps is to launch at the National War Museum, Edinburgh.

Visitors to the exhibition will be able to discover the history of the two organisations and learn first-hand about the experiences of three Land Army girls and a Timber Jill, as well as view a selection of wartime recruitment posters.

Objects on display will include a Land Army dress uniform and a milking jacket, a selection of working tools and one of the medals recently awarded by the British Government.

The objects will be accompanied by personal testimonies, audio recordings and period film footage.

The exhibition, which opens on 26 February, is free with admission to Edinburgh Castle.
