Lamb's House

Lamb's House is a historic A-listed building in Leith, a northern district of the City of Edinburgh, Scotland, which has served as both a place of residence and warehouse.

The Lamb family were reputed to have entertained Mary, Queen of Scots, somewhere nearby on her return from France in 1561.

A contemporary record claims the young queen "remainit in Andro Lamb's hous be the space of an hour" while messages were sent to Edinburgh informing nobles of her return.

Lamb's House was a National Trust for Scotland property, used as a day centre for older people until it was sold to conservation architect Nicholas Groves-Raines and Kristin Hannesdottir in 2010.
