Ellisland Farm: Future brightens for home of Auld Lang Syne

The trust took on the property – situated near Auldgirth – in 2020 and quickly identified the need for significant investment.

“Burns chose the site for its poetic inspiration and built the farm as his romantic first marital home with Jean Armour,” said Ms McAlpine.

“He produced so much work here, especially songs, and we plan to develop creative residencies so new generations are inspired by the beautiful place Burns himself created.”

Caroline Clark, the NLHF director for Scotland, said the poet’s work was celebrated around the world.

“Ellisland and its beautiful natural environs are of immense significance in the story of Burns and to Scotland’s cultural heritage,” she added.
