A rare opportunity to see an outstanding example of Scottish Renaissance architecture while learning about George Heriot, Edinburgh’s famous Jeweller and philanthropist and the 400-year legacy he inspired of ‘Distributing Chearfullie.’ ow.ly/HH0Z50QJS1a #weareheriots

For #SomethingBig we have a section of one of our early 1800s maps of Edinburgh. The linen backed folded map measures 146 x 176 cm and includes proposals for new roads in the old town.
#HealthArchives today and the 1853 surgeon's book. The surgeon examined the boys before they entered the Hospital and records 'diseases got over' e.g. whooping cough, measles, cow pox or small pox and/or scarlet fever.
It is #SomethingNew for #Archive30 today. The Heriot Club was founded in 1891 and we recently received their records and artefacts which included these silver cigarette boxes.
The library and archive is based in the school hall. From 1894 until 1986 it looked like this... #YourWorkplace
Librarian's choice for #FavouriteItem. In this 1827 letter an angry father writes about his “unhappy and unworthy son” and beseeches the school to get him a job on a navy ship where he cannot run away from work.
Before The Education (Scotland) Act 1872, Heriot's built 'outdoor' schools across Edinburgh to provide free education to boys and girls. #ArchiveInclusion
#ArchivePeople and our founder George Heriot (1563-1624). Heriot left the bulk of his fortune to build a school to help the "puir fatherless bairns" of Edinburgh.
1926 Spanish tour for #ArchiveTravel today and the luncheon menu card for the LMS train journey from St. Pancreas back to Edinburgh.
[n.d.] Unknown date No date Date ???? My #ArchiveAdvice - Please, please, pretty please put dates on photographs and records. The photograph is of our Council Room but no date was noted in the album.
For #ArchiveCelebration we have The Founder's Day anniversary dinner card and menu from 1914.
For our #UnusualItem we have a 19th century gunpowder flask. Unfortunately we do not have any records of when or why it is in our archive.
For #ArchiveCollection we have The Heriot Golf Club. Recently donated to the archive the collection contains fixture cards, minutes and winners information dating back to 1898.
