What is recorded here

Kippering House stands on Castlegate in Dunbar, a 19th-century building preserved in the national record. It is not automatically a public invitation; ownership and access remain separate from the fact that the house still exists. The name suggests kippering, smoke and salt, as if the building once belonged to a working harbour rather than a display cabinet.
