Summer house, Amisfield
Summer house, Amisfield
Now on the land of Haddington Golf Course, this mid 18th century temple folly lies on the north-east of the site of Amisfield house (now demolished). It was probably built by Isaac Ware.

There were two layers to the summerhouse, the ground floor may have been used as a banqueting house whilst the basement would have been used by servants to prepare the food.
