Old photograph of Bishop Leighton's Study on Back Causeway in Culross, Fife, Scotland. Culross has been used in several Outlander episodes. A picturesque tall house on the north side of the junction between Back Causeway and The Cross in Culross. The Study dates from around 1610. This is said to be where Bishop Leighton of Dunblane, born 1611, died 1684, who lived nearby in Bishop Leighton's House, composed his sermons. Built as a merchant's house, next to Culross Palace one of the finest in Culross, the building was acquired by the National Trust for Scotland in the 1930s. It was renovated by Ian G. Lindsay and Partners in 1959, winning a Civic Trust Award in 1962.
