Dalkeith Country Park, rzeki Polnocny i Poludnowy Esks, Most Montagu

Byla ciocia, odwiedzila.Tylko, ze tak zaniedbanego parku dawno nie widziala. Rowery w rzece Esk, graty, smieci. Zenada. W dodatku palac zamkniety. Baba siedzi w kiosku. Liczy sobie za przejscie sie parkiem. uwazac na sranie psie. Do tego zamknieta oranzeria, fort. Zadnej informacji ze nieczynne. Rozczarowanie brzydota. Dezinformacja. Szpetota. Buuuuu.
No i jeszcze ten sznur wisielca na drzewie????

Several well-known figures from English and Scottish history have been guests at the Palace in the intervening centuries.Bonnie Prince Charlie stayed two nights at Dalkeith in 1745,King George IV slept here during his visit to Edinburgh in 1822, in preference to Holyroodhouse Palace which was in a poor state, as did Queen Victoria in 1842. During World War IIPolish troops of the 3rd Flanders Rifle Brigade, part of the 1st Polish Armoured Division, were quartered on the third floor of Dalkeith Palace from 1942 onwards. Graffiti drawn by these troops is still visible on the third floor wallpaper of the Palace as of 2008.

Dalkeith Palace has not been lived in by the Buccleuch family since 1914. In the 1970s and early 1980s, Dalkeith Palace was used as a research and development office by the computer firm International Computers Ltd. (ICL), who leased the Palace until 1983. Since 1985 it has been leased to the University of Wisconsin system for a study abroad programme since 1985. Approximately 60-80 students a semester live in the palace, where they also take classes from U.S. and UK faculty members.
