It stands beside the contemporary Cromwell harbour in Dunbar, East Lothian. The lowlands of East Lothian – and other parts of eastern Scotland – were major grain producers. Rents were commonly paid 'in kind' (goods) which landowners had to sell on to realise their monetary worth. The easiest way to transport a bulk commodity of grain to other Scottish ports or further afield, was by sea – hence the coastal location. Resource pack   1     2     3
