About the venue
Meeting point for a Fringe walking tour called Jacobite Edinburgh – A Healthy Walk Through History.
The tour will start at the Netherbow Port, broached by the Jacobites before dawn on Tuesday, September 17th 1745 (just outside The World's End pub), proceed through the Grassmarket and into the Lawnmarket, the scene of a brutal street battle in early October 1745, before proceeding to the Mercat Cross where King James was proclaimed and where, 9 months later, the Jacobite standards were ceremonially burned after Culloden, to reveal the untold story of Jacobite Edinburgh.
Tickets (£12) must be booked in advance.
