A chance to find out more about Scotland's most famous poet, Robert Burns.

In this 17th century thatched house, Burns attended dancing lessons in 1779. He formed a debating club here in 1780, and no doubt he and his friends would have heatedly discussed the topics of the day before drinking their fill at the inn next door. Burns was also initiated as a Freemason here in 1781.
