GLADSTONE'S LAND


GLADSTONE'S LAND
This is an example of an early high-rise which housed diverse social classes. The merchant and his family would have lived in two of the apartments while the others would have been rented to another merchant, a minister, a knight and a guild officer.

This six story merchants house and shop, built in 1550, has been restored by the National Trust for Scotland.
