Barnton, Edinburgh

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Barnton is a suburb of Edinburgh, Scotland, located to the north-west of the city.

It is home to the Royal High School of Edinburgh; the Barnton Hotel; Braehead House, a plain Scots Classical house dating from circa 1700; and The Royal Burgess Golfing Society, one of the oldest golf courses in Scotland.

[edit] Barnton Hotel

Built in 1896 and now closed, awaiting redevelopment, the Barnton Hotel is derelict, and has in the near past been subject to vandalism. Nearly all of the windows are smashed, and the stone walls have graffiti on them.
