Records of cairns, cists and urns found in the immediate vicinity show that the hilltop continued to be used for burial in the Bronze Age. Discovery of these remains led to the supposition that Caiyside Hill was the site of a battle, suggested to have involved invading Romans, Danes (Vikings) or Cromwellians.

The name Duddingston is said to come from the Norman Knight Dodin de Dodinestun who settled in the area. An earlier Bronze Age settlement / lake village may lay buried beyond the car park next to the gate. Duddingston Loch is a nature reserve with swans, geese,ducks and otters. It was previously used for ice skating curling and boating. There is a famous painting by Sir Henry Raeburn of a minister ice skating on the Duddingston Loch. SHEEP HEID INN The Causway, Duddingston Village known originally as Dodin Village. It is said that a drinking house has been on the site since the 1300s and Bonnie Prince Charlie may have drank here before the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745. There is no definite proof of how old the pub is or how it got its name but Royalty played skittles in the back yard and a bowling alley was built in 1870. A club founded in 1882 still exists and plays once a week. A gift given to the landlord in 1580 by King James VI was a rams head snuff box, which is now in Dalmeny House and a copy is behind the bar. The village was known for the slaughter of sheep and the use of the heads for soup (powsowadie) a local broth. THE NIGHT BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE END Camped around Dunsapie Loch on Arthur Seat the army of Bonnie Prince Charlie awaited instructions from the war council being held in the house pictured below in Duddingston Village on the night of the 19 September 1745 before the Battle of Prestonpans took place. The Battle at Prestonpans was an monumental victory for the Jacobite army over the English army of red coats. The Jacobite army lead by Bonnie Prince Charlie (Charles Edward Stuart) went on to battle their way as far as Derby, before turning back with the might of the English army in chase. After 7 months of battles, the end came in just 20 minutes at the battle of Culloden where the English wiped out the Jacobite's and ended the Stuarts regaining the throne, Bonnie Prince Charlie fled to Skye and then into Europe. Duddingston Loch a wildlife sanctuary. The plaque with the quote by John Thomson one time minister of Duddingston Kirk, ‘We’re all Jock Tamson’s bairns’, (Meaning) We are all the same.

  • Craigmillar Castle | Outlander | All About Edinburgh

    Craigmillar Castle now ruins where Films TV Shows have been made. Best preserved medieval Castle in UK. Many historic momemts in History happened here. Craigmillar Castle Edinburgh Prestonfield #OUTLANDER FILM LOCATION Craigmillar Castle is one of the best-preserved medieval castles in Scotland. It has a central tower house which is surrounded by a courtyard wall and has a chapel and a do’cot. Craigmillar Castle was built in the late 14th century by the Preston family, Land owners of Craigmillar. Craigmillar Castle is best known for its association with Mary Queen of Scots. She used the castle as a place to rest after illness and after the birth of her son the future James I of England. Mary arrived at Craigmillar Castle on the 20th November 1566 and left on 7 December 1566. In November Bothwell met with nobles at Craigmillar Castle to discuss Lord Darnley. They came up with two options, divorce or assassination. They then consulted with Mary, she ruled out divorce, because it would make her son illegitimate. As for 'other means', she said that she wanted 'nothing against her honour'. The nobles saw this as her agreement to kill her husband and on leaving the nobles signed an agreement to murder Darnley. A pact known as the "Craigmillar Bond" was made, to be rid of her husband Lord Darnley. The garden pond shaped as the initial "P" can still be seen. It was Simon Prestons’ town House in Edinburgh that Mary Queen of Scots spent her last night before she was taken to Leven then on to England to spend the next 19 years in imprisonment before her execution. It was Elizabeth I the cousin of Mary Queen of Scots that had her executed. Prestonfield Edinburgh The area of Craigmillar in the east was purchased and added to the Barony of Priestfield owned by Sir James Dick. The first house was named Priestfield, as the monks had previously been the landowners. Priestfield House was burned to the ground in 1680 by anti-Catholic student protesters (the Dick's being Catholic) and as a consequence the Edinburgh council closed the University of Edinburgh until they could see improvement in the student’s behaviour. The reason for the targeting of Priestfield and Sir James Dick was he held the position of Provost of the University of Edinburgh. The Dick family lived in Prestonfield House for over 250 years. A new house was built by Sir William Bruce, king’s architect. At that time the house was renamed Prestonfield House. In the years to follow Prestonfield house greeted many famous guests that included Bonnie Prince Charlie, Samuel Jonson and James Boswell. Benjamín Franklin was entertained by the president of the Royal College of Physicians, Sir Alexander Dick, at his home, Prestonfield in 1759. The House still stands with many renovations and modernisation over the centuries it still stands, now a hotel and has been a popular venue for the celebrities for the last 50 years with guest such as Winston Churchill, Margaret Thatcher, Sean Connery, Elton John, Catherine Zeta Jones, Oliver Reed and many more.
