Hugh Miller's Birthplace NTS

Hugh Miller's Birthplace NTS Discover the life & legacy of Victorian Britain's greatest mind! 🎩

Join us for a fossil walk and discover life that once thrived in prehistoric Scotland!

Open daily, 11:00 to 15:30 Fossil hunter, folklorist, man of faith, stonemason, geologist, editor, writer and social justice campaigner – Hugh Miller was one of the great Scots of the 19th century. His quests and writings have left a huge legacy of knowledge, but as these two adjacent properties testify, he came from ordinary beginnings. The thatched cottage where Hugh was born in 1802 was built b

y Hugh’s great grandfather – a pirate! The cobbled courtyard adjoining the cottage was an external working space. Next door, the handsome Georgian villa, now an interactive museum, was built by Hugh’s father – its distinctive central spiral staircase winds around a ship’s mast. Outside, Miller’s Yard: Garden of Wonders is a sheltered corner – the perfect spot to sit and take a breath of fresh air.
