Brunstane

Brunstane is a northeastern suburb of Edinburgh, Scotland. It lies on the A1 and is served by Brunstane railway station on the Borders Railway.
Brunstane partly consists of new housing, such as the Gilberstoun estate, and also contains the 1950s council housing schemes known as Magdalene and the Christians, which are south and north of Milton Road respectively.

Brunstane House

The current house was built in 1639 for John Maitland, 1st Earl of Lauderdale, incorporating an L-plan house dating from the 1560s and early 14th century elements built for the Crichton family. It was extended by Sir William Bruce in 1672 and bought by Andrew Fletcher, Lord Milton in 1733. He employed William Adam to rebuild parts of the house and install interior panelling, plasterwork and other features. The house includes some of the earliest known examples of sash windows in Scotland.
