    Step back in time this Easter with Victorian living history tours.

    Visitors to this unique National Trust for Scotland property can literally step back in time and meet employees of R. Smail & Sons from 1896.

    Customers to R. Smail’s would never go beyond placing their orders in the office, but by applying to take up an apprenticeship here, visitors will be able to view ‘the works’ as it would have been or maybe even book a ticket to the new worlds. The tours last approximately 1.5 hours and are great fun for all the family.

    Sirs,

    We are inviting attendance from potential apprentices whom may be interested in learning all aspects of the printing trade. Apply in person to R. Smail & Sons, High Street, Innerleithen. Applicants will be received between the hours of half past Noon and 5 o’clock whereupon staff will instruct and then judge upon suitability for the positions available.

    Your obedient servant,

    R. C. Smail



    Timed Living History Tours start at 12.30 and every half hour until 3.30pm.
