  • HADDINGTON SCOTLAND | a walk through Haddington, East Lothian, Scotland
    Welcome to Haddington, the county town of East Lothian!
    Also watch our tour of Edinburgh Scotland - • EDINBURGH ROYAL MILE F...
    Just 20 miles from Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital city, and often known as ‘the hidden toun’ because of the way it sits in its rural environment, Haddington is a beautiful market town, rich in history and with many attractions. Whether you’re a visitor or a local, we’d be delighted if you’d like to find out more about our town on this website.
    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
    Haddington 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. ... In the middle of the town is the Haddington Town House, completed in 1745 based on a plan by William Adam.
    Haddington is a genteel, orderly town set amongst agricultural country in East Lothian. The burgh is situated snugly under the Garleton Hills on the banks of a long lazy s-bend of the River Tyne. Agriculture has long been the basis for Haddington's prosperity.
    We take the Gimbal Walk TV cameras for a wander through the streets of Haddington to find out what this Scottish town is really like

    First I'd heard of Haddington. One part of my family is Scots border, and the other Northern Ireland, and where I never visited Ireland, I've felt most comfortable and "at home" in the north of England.
    Thanks again for a great walk. I love the history. I remember standing at the base of the Roman column in York, and touching it, thinking of the Roman soldiers who made it, and also touched it so long ago.

    The plaque at the top of the High Street recognises the rejuvenation of the Town centre in the 50s, or was it the 60s. The water fountain in Court street has Samson on top of it - it’s called the Brown fountain, originally a drinking water fountain.

    Thanks for the walk around. I have Haddington DNA and visited there some time ago. It is indeed a lovely town. The building you pointed out as being on the site of King William's palace is the Haddington Court House, designed by William Burn and built by my G_G_G-grandfather. He was a Master Mason and built a number of other grand buildings in Haddington and around East Lothian.
