The Eagle Inn
The Eagle Inn High St Dunbar. The first time I saw this I was intrigued by the signage and vintage ads for Bellhaven Beer.
Incredibly Edible Dunbar
North Berwick Law
It is a really distinctive landmark in East Lothian. I didn’t realise it was an extinct volcano.
Travelling to Dunbar

Torness Nuclear Power Station is pretty controversial but the starkly modernist building in the beautifully lined fields of East Lothian I find really compelling to look at. I aways wait for it to come up when on the train.
John Muir Birthplace

In the High St the John Muir Birthplace Museum is really worth visiting. It is free and really informative on this pioneer of conservation and ecology. He also was an influential writer on nature and our place in it.
“When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world.”
“Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.”
“The power of imagination makes us infinite.”
