![]() ![]() Musselburgh Racecourse, the oldest in Scotland, has been a venue for racing since 1816. The 'Honest Town' developed from the 12th century as a rival to the capital nearby, with trade helped by having a port, which today is still lightly used for fishing and pleasure boating. The interesting old market town of Musselburgh lies six miles east of Edinburgh, where the River Esk meets the sea. The Coat of Arms for Musselburgh is made up of three mussels and three anchors, with the anchors referring to the fishing tradition of the community. The name, Musselburgh, derives from the extensive mussel beds which lie along its shore on the Firth of Forth.
