Literature House for Scotland
Image-by-Mike-McBey-1554x1100

The Pavilion is a newly built, self-contained three-storey house within the curtilage of Lamb’s House in Leith. Built in the style of the early 18th century with an iconic ogee roof, the Pavilion sits comfortably with recently restored 17th century Lamb’s House and its 2 storey office extension, overlooking the newly formed Renaissance style garden. It has been built with impeccable attention to detail, using locally sourced or reclaimed materials and has been furnished with elegant antique pieces, perfectly in keeping with the house.
