Data supplied by East Lothian Council in 2005

Haughs on North bank of River Tyne

Common Good Fund

Haddington has a Common Good Fund with a balance of £ 537,000 according to the 2004/05 Accounts of East Lothian Council.

Commentary

It is hard to believe that a historic burgh such as Haddington has no more Common Good assets than some haughs on the riverbank. Further research would undoubtedly reveal more.
