The Writers' Museum is housed in Lady Stair's House, a 17th
century building originally known as Lady Gray's House. The
building is beside James Court, off Lawnmarket.
The building was restored in 1896-97, then gifted to the
Borough of Edinburgh for use as a municipal museum. It now
presents the lives of three Scottish writers:
- Robert Burns
- Walter Scott
- Robert Louis Stevenson
