[PLEASE DONT LEAVE BITS OF PAPER WITH LOGS YOU MUST SIGN THE REAL LOG BOOK ITS A FIELD PUZZLE READ ALL CLUES Amisfield Walled Garden is on the outskirts of Haddington, East Lothian. It is being developed by Amisfield Preservation Trust. The Trust’s aims are to cultivate and develop land within, and adjacent to, the walled garden and to preserve and restore the walls and buildings, for the benefit and enjoyment of the public at large and, in particular, the health, wellbeing, and education of the local community. The garden has an area of 8 acres (3.24 hectares) completely enclosed by 16 foot (5m) high walls of dressed stone and is said to be the second-largest walled garden in Scotland, the largest being on the Atholl Estate. Built in the 1780s, the walls are in very good condition considering their age. Each corner features a stone pavilion, all of whose domed roofs have been lost, but which are otherwise mostly structurally sound. Much work has been undertaken by a team of volunteers in the last few years to restore the garden. Overgrown trees have been cleared, herbaceous borders, lawns, and vegetable plots have been planted, and new paths have been laid. Before the site was cleared it was packed with the overgrown trees of a former tree nursery. Access to the walled garden is through a gate by the north east pavilion, close to the east entrance to the Amisfield Park.
