Quiet Walk Through a Historic Scottish Village | Gifford, East Lothian

Take a peaceful 17-minute walk through the charming village of Gifford in East Lothian. Enjoy stone cottages, green spaces, and historic buildings as we wander through this picturesque Scottish village. This is the kind of village that inspired the Scottish Places Post — a little piece of Scotland sent through the post each month. Gifford is a small village built in the 18th century, full of character and history. Along the way, we pass the Lime Tree Walk, 18th-century cottages, the impressive Town Hall, the Goblin Ha' Hotel, and the early 18th-century church. Legend has it that Yester Castle nearby was built with the help of hobgoblins! Hugo de Giffard, the so-called Wizard of Yester, is said to have entered a pact with the devil and commanded an army of goblins. They built the castle and its mysterious underground chamber. Perhaps a future video will explore this spooky side of Gifford! Whether you’re here for history, architecture, or a relaxing stroll, this peaceful walk through Gifford invites you to unwind and enjoy Scotland from wherever you are. 00:00 Start of Walk 06:15 The Lime Tree Walk - 19th-century avenue leading to Yester House 11:00 18th Century Cottages - grassy areas opposite for livestock 15:10 Town Hall - built 1705, became a school in 1775, Town Hall in 1887 15:20 The Goblin Ha' Hotel 16:20 The Church - built in 1710
