East Linton
East Linton is a village in East Lothian, Scotland, situated on the River Tyne and A1 road five miles east of Haddington. The village has a population of 1,774 (Census 2001). It has 1 active church - Prestonkirk, but formally had a free church (St Andrew's), a catholic church and a methodist hall. The clock on St Andrew's former Church was put in by the village to commemorate Queen Victoria's Jubilee. The village has a fountain in the square, which has 4 cherubs and lights on top. Preston Mill, an old watermill, is on the outskirts of the village. There has been a mill on the site since 1599 and it is still working. East Linton probably gets it's name form the Linn (a waterfall) on the river next to the village.
