 Series
Identifier: MSS.24652-24655

Scope and Contents

Formed in 1868, the membership of the Mortonhall Curling Club was drawn largely from local landed families and the legal profession. For most of the Club's exsistence curling took place upon a constructed 'deep water pond' flooded annually in the winter months, but in the early 20th century two adjacent 'artificial ice rinks' were added. The Club was dissolved in 1916.
