Buying in Innerwick
Innerwick is a small countryside village in East Lothian roughly 5 miles southeast of Dunbar. It has about 450 residents. Like many rural villages in east Lothian, agriculture still plays a significant role in the day-to-day economy of the village. As you would expect, the village is surrounded by farms which account for a lot of the local employment, though some residents also travel to work in Dunbar which is easily reached on the A1 trunk road which is north of the village.
In terms of amenities and things to do, Innewick as you’d expect doesn’t have too much going on, being more of a sleepy village. There are however a school, an outdoor education centre and church. The outdoor centre which was formerly the old school. This has recently undergone refurbishment and modernisation to be fit for use. There is also a village hall. Beyond that there’s not too much to mention in the village but then that’s the attraction to many of the residents: a quieter life. Residents typically travel up to the larger town of Dunbar for more choice of amenities. However, residents do benefit from an excellent array of local rural walking routes around the local farmland or towards the North Sea coast.
Worth a mention is that a large number of the buildings in Innerwick are listed as having architectural or historical importance which does draw some visitors in to see. Also worth noting are the ruins of Innerwick Castle, built by the Stewart family in the 14th century, are perched on a sandstone outcrop overlooking Thornton Glen which is managed by the Scottish Wildlife Trust. Innerwick Castle had a strategic position against English invasion until 1548 when it was badly damaged by the Duke of Somerset.
As for local schooling, the town is served by a single primary school: Innerwick Primary School. When of secondary age, pupils would typically attend Dunbar Grammar School in Dunbar.
In January 2025, property in Innerwick stood at an average value of £265,250.
