Historic East Lothian church gate damaged by BBC van waits ten months for repair

Work to repair the damaged gateway of one of Scotland's oldest churches is due to begin nearly ten months after it was knocked down by a BBC van during filming.

The stone pillar and iron gate of St Mary's Parish Church, in Haddington, East Lothian, were damaged by the van last September when the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra were performing in the cathedral-sized church.

The concert, which was part of the Lammermuir Festival, is understood to have been recorded for broadcast.
