The John Gray Centre in Lodge Street is a major visitor attraction which brings together an East Lothian museum as well as the town’s library, local history centre and archives. Housed in what was previously four historic buildings, the centre is a bright, welcoming resource which aims to inspire the people of East Lothian to explore and engage with the history of the communities, environment and families. The centre is named after John Gray, who died in Haddington in 1717 and left his book collection to the town, thus establishing one of the first public lending libraries in Scotland.
