Saturday 10 September
(this tour for families / accompanied children age 11+ - Horrible Histories version!)

10:00 am – 12:00 noon

Join Dr Jon Cooper of the Siege of Haddington Research Group on a whistle-stop tour of the siege lines and fortifications of the Hidden fortifications of Haddington. 

OK ... so Mary of Guise said the English left 'Nothing but the Plague' when they left the fortifications of Haddington in September 1549, but a team of local historians and conflict archaeologists are on the hunt for the remnants of what is possibly Scotland's longest siege. Join Jon on the search as we tour the town seeking out those hidden clues as to the location of the fort and reveal the historical accounts of the fighting. Could the casualties of the conflict be under your feet!! Join the tour to find out!!

This tour is for families / accompanied children age 11+ -- Horrible Histories version! (see Friday 9 September for adults tour).

Free but donations to Haddington History Society welcome.
