Summary edit

Description
English: Seacliff Beach. The beach at Seacliff is less well-known than some of the other East Lothian beaches, and is therefore usually fairly quiet. Seacliff was used as a base for some of the attacks on Tantallon Castle, whose ruins are just to the north-west. During the Napoleonic Wars there were troops stationed here to guard against French attack. On the cliffs above the beach is the ruin of Seacliff House, which burned down at the beginning of the 20th century. Some of its outbuildings were used during the First World War to house a top secret naval base called HMS Scottish Seacliff.
