👻 A4. Balgay Park is memorable to so many as it is the location of the White Lady of Balgay Bridge, the story behind it is very creepy, you're told not to cross the bridge in the dead of night. #ScotlandHour #YS2022 #TalesOfScotland #CelebrateBurnsNight #DundeeDay @ScotlandHour

Q4. It's got to be the Canongate, one of the oldest streets in Edinburgh and part of the Royal Mile, where we ran Canongate Stars and Stories in 2017, lighting up the dark nights with words! 🌟✨

A4. Anytime we hear about the Lady of the Lawers, who was said to have made several prophecies, including the Highland Clearances, it reminds us of our 2019 exhibition #OnlyInWhispers: The Myths & Legends of Perthshire.
