Gilmerton Cove [02:36]
Gilmerton Cove, Gilmerton, Edinburgh, Scotland. These caves were hand-carved from solid sandstone. Nobody knows who carved them, or why. There are several chambers, some containing tables and chairs carved out of the sandstone. Some of these show evidence of having had doors hung in the entranceway. There is evidence, mostly graffiti, of the Cove being used by the Knights Templar, the Covenanters and the Masons. It is also rumoured to have been used by the Edinburgh branch of London's Hellfire Club. In the 18th Century, it was inhabited by a blacksmith named George Paterson. Paterson is thought to be buried in one of the unexplored caves, and his ghost haunts the caves. Another of the unexplored caves is thought to stretch as far as Craigmillar Castle, a mile or so to the north east, where a similar set of caves are known to exist. The caves are also thought to have been used by witches. One of the rooms contains a sacrificial table, and a stone referred to as Jacob's Pillow - though it looks nothing like the Stone of Destiny in Edinburgh Castle. A Cove is Scots for Cave. These caves are several miles inland, and 40 metres above sea level. Entrance is via an old miners cottage on Drum Street, Gilmerton.
