Your copy of Scottish Field’s October magazine is out now to buy, both in shops and online, with the very best lifestyle features, news, interiors, properties, antiques, motoring, gardens, wildlife, field sports, whisky, and more.
This month’s magazine is one of the most eclectic we’ve produced in a while, and as a result it’s been hugely enjoyable to work on.
Editor Richard Bath said: ‘We start with a piece on the great Gaelic poet Sorley MacLean and a photographic essay that focuses on the community cohesion that ensues from the Kessock Bridge swim.

‘We’re a magazine with our roots in the outdoors, so enjoy our piece on cooking game and Scotland’s first hop farmer.’
We speak with Steven Wade of Woodmill Game who is passionate about sharing the unique flavours of the wild in the most sustainable way possible. You can try his family recipes here.
