Hugh Miller rose from humble beginnings as a journeyman stonemason to international acclaim as a geologist, editor, writer and folk historian. He won fame also as an evangelical church reformer. The Museum comprises two buildings; Miller House, a handsome Georgian-period villa, and the iconic 17th Century thatched Birthplace Cottage. Beautiful small gardens lie behind both buildings. MORE>
