Professor Geddes – author of the recent Buildings of Scotland : Lothian – will take us to four eclectic historic, but modest, private properties near Pencaitland. Woodhall – a much-altered 16th century tower house; Tyneholm – a Jacobethan mansion by William Burn; Herdmaston – the former seat of the St Clair family; and, finally, a ground- breaking site of industrial espionage!

Meet at 10 am at West Register House, Charlotte Square for coach pickup. Bring a packed lunch.
