I had not walked Leith Links for a while and so I took a stroll. I was delighted to see the John Rattray statue…. with access! The last time I was at the Links it was bordered off.
Dr John Rattray was a surgeon, Jacobite and golfer. He was responsible for preparing the first rules of golf in 1744 for the first competition in Leith.
It was good to see it in the open!
