Tithe Barn, Whitekirk, East Lothian, Scotland. After miracles of healing were being performed at a nearby well in the 13th century, the nearby church of St Mary's was placed under the protection of James I who built hostels for the growing number of pilgrims. James IV regularly made the journey to Whitekirk, but his son James V gave the site to the Sinclair family who in around 1540 built a rare example in Scotland of a 3-storey tithe barn with stone from the former pilgrims' hostel. In the 19th century the holy well dried up following agricultural drainage.

St Mary's Church, Whitekirk A Parish Church has been at Whitekirk since the 12th century, initially belonging to Holyrood Abbey. After miracles of healing were being performed at a nearby well the church was placed under the protection of James I. It survived almost without alteration until 1914, when it was set on fire by suffragettes. Careful restoration was carried out by Robert Lorimer. The tower has two small light openings, a stair-turret at the NW corner and a low slated spire. It has been used as a doocot with 39 nests cut out of the stone walls of the tower and 97 in recesses.

"A building of high antiquity was situated at the east end of Musselburgh, which belonged to the abbacy of Dunfermline. It was called the Chapel of Loretto. There are no remains of it now but a small cell, about 12 feet by 10, covered by a mount in the garden of the gentleman who is now in possession of the villa called Loretto. Soon after the Reformation, about the year 1590; the tolbooth of Musselburgh was built out of the ruins of this chapel, which must have been of considerable dimensions." -- Old Statistical Account, 1792

The Parish Church of Saltoun The present church was built in 1805 in the Gothic style and funded by John Fletcher Campbell in memory of his ancestors - the Fletchers of Saltoun. Perhaps the best known minister was Gilbert Burnett who went on to be Bishop of Salisbury. (Note the spire at Saltoun is reminiscent - in proportion - of the spire at Salisbury Cathedral.) The great Scottish politician, Andrew Fletcher is buried at Saltoun. For his great fight against the union with England, Andrew became known, in his lifetime and beyond, as 'The Patriot' There have been, at least, two other churches at Saltoun, dating back to the 12th century. The present kirk stands in the village of East Saltoun in the heart of the Parish.

Bowerhouse Doocot Doocot of the rectangular lectern type with sloping roof and stepped gables to provide perches for the pigeons. The roof usually face south to give the birds a sunny surface to rest on, while sheltering them from northerly winds. This one appears to be two-storey, the ground floor would have been used for other purposes and the pigeon quarters on the upper floor. One of the largest doocots in East Lothian and probably built by the owners of the former house at Bower House.

Entrance to Nunraw Abbey Nunraw started as a monastic grange owned by the nuns of Haddington. The last prioress bequeathed it to the Hepburn family who built a castle in the grounds. It was restored in 1863, and in 1945 it was taken over by Cistercian monks from Ireland. The monks have since built themselves a modern monastery, Sancta Maria Abbey, close by, and Nunraw Abbey is now a Christian retreat, education and conference centre.

Morham Kirk The present church was built in 1724 replacing an older structure. The lost village of Morham(e) formed the centrepiece of one of the most important parishes in Haddingtonshire (East Lothian) All that remains is some scattered houses, farms and, of course, the old church. It's believed a church has stood on the same spot since the 12th century.

Doocot at Dolphingstone The first doocots built in Scotland were the beehive doocots that appeared in the 16th century, typically circular-plan conical structures with pigeon access to the central chamber by means of an oculus opening at the building's apex. The Dolphingstone Doocot, originally connected with the late 17th century, now ruined, Cowthrople House, has the remains of a cupola evident on its roof, and evidence of shells being used in the structure's mortar. This 17th century, beehive type dovecot measures 51ft in circumference at the base. It has a flattish domed roof and two string courses. There is an entry for pigeons through an opening in the centre of the roof, and two other openings in the wall, about 2ft square. No nests remain.

Belhaven Brewery. The entrance to one of the great Scottish breweries. Belhaven was demerged from a larger group back in early 1990's, as I remember under the brand-master hand of Raymond Miguel, and which went on to become City Centre Restaurants plc (now called The Restaurant Group) which used to include well known names such as Est Est Est, Garfunkels, The Filling Station, Cafe Uno, Wok Wok, Chiquitos, Frankie and Benny's even the little chrome caravan niche called "OK Diner". It would seem that some of these are no longer part of their portfolio. (http://www.ccruk.com/html/our_restaurants.asp) Nevertheless it would seem that 15ish years down the line that both companies are doing very well. Over the years I had a little flutter in the equity of both businesses. More on the history of Belhaven Brewery here: (and what colourful history) http://www.beerhunter.com/documents/19133-000784.html
