Description
East Lothian, a region steeped in history and contrast, is home to some of Scotland's most significant landmarks. From sandy beaches to majestic sea cliffs, the area has been shaped by its unique geography over thousands of years. This beautifully illustrated book explores the lost buildings that have played a crucial role in the county's history, but are now no longer present or functional. With over 100 old photographs, maps and prints, Craig Statham delves into the stories behind these forgotten structures, grouping them by theme to reveal a rich tapestry of the past. The book features a wide range of lost buildings, including castles, mansion houses, streets, villages, hospitals, factories, churches, schools, hotels and even swimming pools.
