St Kilda today remains one of the rare ‘mixed’ World Heritage Sites.Find out more about St Kilda’s World Heritage Site status on the UNESCO website.Scotland’s Flow Country, an expanse of blanket bog in Caithness and Sutherland, is on the UK Tentative List of potential World Heritage Sites. The Peatlands Partnership is conducting a community consultation on the potential for a Flow Country World Heritage Site.
