Creative Scotland funding keeps endangered craft alive

In East Lothian, one woman is keeping an endangered Scottish craft alive, creating a business from funding given by Creative Scotland through the East Lothian Council. Tucked away in Pencaitland, A Croft Creative is both a home and an art space, run by Heather Macfarlane and her partner. Using her business, Jerusalem Croft, to keep the endangered craft alive, Heather creates traditional brushes and brooms using indigenous plant fibres that were used traditionally in Scotland. Reporter Liam Eunson visited A Croft Creative to speak to Heather about the endangered craft, the broom making process and her passion for ‘art that has a function’.
