Canongate, Edinburgh

Acheson House. Built 1633 for Sir Archibald Acheson, 1st Baronet, Secretary of State of Scotland for King Charles I.

After changing hands a number of times it became the Scottish Craft Centre (a showcase for contemporary Scottish craftwork) in 1951, which closed in 1991. The building has remained empty ever since.
