Members Spotlight: Elphinstone Hotel Biggar

The Elph' in Biggar has a long and illustrious history that goes back over 400 years.

The old Pedlars’ Way from Edinburgh to the South West of Scotland is one of the oldest roads in the country, with Biggar as one of the principal stopping off places. The Elphinstone has been the principal Inn in  Biggar for a great many years and when some outbuildings were demolished in 1947, a groat of Queen Elizabeth I of England was found, perhaps dropped by a visitor from South of the Border.

 The Elph' has a long and illustrious history that goes back over 400 years.
