On the Royal Mile, at the foot of high Street, sits the John Knox house, one of the oldest surviving tenement houses in Edinburgh. It was built around 1490.
It is a typical 15th century townhouse, with crow-stepped gables, and an external staircase.It has just undegone a renovation, and is open for inspection if you care to visit. A great look back into the lives of the people who lived here long ago.
