Looking along Waterside Road and Giffordgate
Giffordgate is a street in the town of Haddington, East Lothian, Scotland. It runs adjacent to the River Tyne opposite St Mary's Church and overlooking the 12th-century Nungate Bridge. Giffordgate connects to Waterside Road (the location of the Waterside Bistro (now laughably called the 'Laffin Duck'!!)), Ford Road (which used to lead to an old ford over the river) and via a narrow pathway (paved in 2005) to Dunbar Road.
Giffordgate is reported to be the birthplace of John Knox, a fact marked by an oak tree between numbers 5 and 7. There are around 12 houses along Giffordgate.
