Abstract
At some point in the late 1930s — the summer of 1937 is the most probable start date — the Edinburgh architect Alan Reiach commenced his pioneering photo graphie survey of Scottish vernacular buildings. This record is examined in the following paper, which draws on evidence provided by the collection of approximately 1000 images eventually selected for inclusion in Reiach's office archive, and which remained with hirn throughout a long and distinguished architectural career. These, together with more than 4000 photographs of buildings encountered in additional tours of Scotland, England, Ireland, mainland Europe and North and Central America, were deposited with St Andrews University in 1999, seven years after Reiach's death on 23 July 1992.1
