About Pathhead
- Crichton Castle, which stands on a promontory above the Tyne Water near Pathhead, is one of the most architecturally interesting ruined castles in Scotland. The castle was built in stages from the late fourteenth century onwards and includes a remarkable Italianate arcade added by Francis Stewart, 5th Earl of Bothwell, in the 1580s. The diamond-faceted stonework of the arcade is unique in Scotland.
- Pathhead sits on the line of the old Great North Road, the coaching route that connected Edinburgh to London before the coming of the railways. The village's position on this important route meant that it developed as a stopping point for travellers, with inns and stabling for horses. The coaching trade shaped the village's economy for several centuries.
- The Tyne Water, which flows through Pathhead, rises in the Moorfoot Hills and flows east through Midlothian and East Lothian to the sea at Tyninghame Bay. The river valley is one of the most attractive in Midlothian and supports a variety of wildlife including otters, kingfishers, and brown trout.
