The Ship Inn, Musselburgh

A Planning application has been lodged for the comprehensive redevelopment of the Ship Inn, Musselburgh. The existing and much loved bar is to be retained as the focal point within an expanded gastro-pub and seafood restaurant. Above, the building’s distinctive ‘three gables’ contain residential apartments, in a sculpted form that alludes to harbourside architecture, while creating a contextual landmark and harbour marker on this key gateway approach to Musselburgh town centre.
