The Inn at East Saltoun Near Haddington

[cassbart]

Can anyone tell me where the Inn at East Saltoun was located. I have an old 1863 copy of a local Haddington Newspaper that tells of a fight one of my Irish ancestors was involved and I would like to know where the incident took place.

The 6 inch maps would probably give you a better idea but they don't seem to be available at the moment

Thanks for that,  unfortunately though they do not appear to show where the pub is !! But thanks for trying.

The 1 inch map has an Inn at East Salton and the 1861 Census has Elizabeth Bell age 64 Inn Keepr.
living 1 East Salton.

Would really need the 6 inch maps to help identify the location.

Is it not the building marked "Inn", on the map?  Now seems to be a private house.

Hi, Yes I saw that one but it appears to be in Fala. My ancester a James Cassidy was a farm labourer living & working at Bughtknowe Farm, Humbie and the report in the newspaper says he was assaulted in the Inn at  Saltoun.
Fala seems to be in the wrong direction.  Thanks again.

The one I see is in the village of East Salto(u)n.
