A spokesperson said: “Pop along and look back over old photos and memorabilia and learn how you can share your memories.” 


Last October, East Lothian councillors  unanimously agreed the closure and mothballing of The Brunton after potentially unsafe reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) was found there.
