Mavisbank House  the light & the land, Portfolio 9
 
Mavisbank Restoration Project

Mavisbank house is a hidden gem, tucked away between the communities of Loanhead, Bonnyrigg, Lasswade and Dalkeith and is architecturally renowned as one of the country's earliest neo-classic houses as well as the very first Palladian villa to be built in Scotland.

Although Mavisbank is now in a derelict condition and its once beautiful designed landscape is neglected and overgrown, the beauty, history and European significance of this 'A' listed building make it worth fighting for, as potentially one of Edinburgh and the Lothians' most beautiful landmarks.

If you would like any further information about the campaign to restore Mavisbank please visit the The Edinburgh Greenbelt Trust.
