Soutra Aisle Open Days

This is an event that is NOT happening at Three Hares, but is definitely of interest so we are spreading the word!

Dr.Brian Moffat (Archaeobotanist) hosts Open Days at Soutra Aisle 2017 (site of the medieval hospital and monastery founded in 1164 and operating for approx 300 years).

Brian imparts a wealth of knowledge about medicinal plants used, plants introduced, and much more info that you won’t find on Google!!

May 6th (For Midlothian Heritage Week)
Summer Weekend- August 26th, 27th, 28th

Usually lasts until 5pm-ish.
Bring warm clothes as it is an exposed windy hilltop!

Get off at Soutra Aisle, just after Fala, and it’s a 10/15min walk from A68.
