This 19th-century gunpowder factory, situated in Roslin, Scotland, is a remarkable piece of industrial heritage. The factory's striking architecture, with its sturdy stone buildings and imposing chimney, reflects its former purpose of manufacturing gunpowder for the British military. Today, the site has been beautifully restored and now serves as a museum, offering visitors a glimpse into the region's industrial past.
Fantastic place plenty to have a look around. I will be going to look around again as would like to have a walk around Roslins County Park. More there that I'd like to look around. It'll be good to look up the history behind it all too.
This is such a nice relaxing walk, it wasn't too far from the car park and it's fairly easy. Once you reach the mills there's a nice resting point by the water. Totally recommend this walk!
Visiting the area. Decided to walk down to the area. Most of the buildings are gone. Just the mill left
Just here for a few days , and it's such a lovely walk , with my dog , I was also thrilled to pick a day, that filming was going on , very interesting, and a very easy walk from the car park
