'The Golf Tavern', Haddington

The Royal Burgh of Haddington... is a town in East Lothian, Scotland. It is the main administrative, cultural and geographical centre for East Lothian, which as a result of late-nineteenth century Scottish local government reforms took the form of the county of Haddingtonshire for the period from 1889 to 1921. It lies about 17 miles (27 kilometres) east of Edinburgh. The name Haddington is Anglo-Saxon, dating from the sixth or seventh century AD when the area was incorporated into the kingdom of Bernicia. The town, like the rest of the Lothian region, was ceded by King Edgar of England and became part of Scotland in the tenth century. Haddington received burghal status, one of the earliest to do so, during the reign of David I (1124–1153), giving it trading rights which encouraged its growth into a market town.

Poldrate Mill, Haddington

Built on the site of the mediaeval Kirk Mill, the present buildings are largely 18th Century. Milling operations ceased in 1965, but what remains is the only one of Haddington's three mills which still displays much of its traditional form. Quoted from the Lamp of Lothian website
