Thursday Doors – Inveresk


Last week I’ve shared a door from the Inveresk Lodge gardens, which was the purpose of our visit to this historic village. After the garden visit, I explored a bit, as the buildings all looked so lovely. I’ve learnt a lot about them since and thought it would be interesting to give them the space and attention they deserve. So much so, I wouldn’t mind going back to Inveresk and discover a lot more.

Today I’m sharing the imposing Manor House. It’s by far the biggest building along the road and for what I can tell, it’s still a private residence. At the time I thought it could be a hotel of sorts. Built around 1740, it is a category B listed building and the gardens are open to the public on specific times of the year. One of the sites I’ve found mentions this is a house, like the ones from that period, that it’s only one room deep… interesting!
