About Stonemasons
A stonemason works with natural stone - repairing walls, lintels, steps and chimneys, repointing lime mortar joints and carrying out restoration work on older buildings.
In Scotland, with so many stone-built properties, a skilled local stonemason is an essential trade to have access to.
Always check that they use lime mortar rather than cement on traditional stone buildings - using the wrong mortar can cause serious long-term damage to old masonry.

About East Lothian
(opens in new tab)East Lothian is a coastal county on the southern shore of the Firth of Forth, stretching from the outskirts of Edinburgh to the Berwickshire border. Its rich agricultural land, dramatic coastline and the rolling Lammermuir Hills give it a landscape that feels far removed from the city on its doorstep.
The county has deep historical roots - Haddington, the county town, was one of medieval Scotland's four great royal burghs, and the region is studded with castles, tower houses and estate lands that reflect centuries of strategic importance.
Musselburgh, the largest town, sits on Edinburgh's eastern edge, while North Berwick, Dunbar, Gullane and Dirleton are among the most sought-after places to live in Scotland - valued for their beaches, world-class golf courses and strong sense of community.
The towns and villages each have their own distinct character - from the harbour culture of Dunbar and North Berwick to the market town feel of Haddington and the quiet conservation villages of the interior.
East Lothian has strong transport links - the A1 and two rail lines connect the region to Edinburgh quickly - making it a practical choice for families and professionals who want rural character with easy city access.
