Summary[edit]

Description
English: Tailors' Hall, Cowgate. Regarded, after St Giles and the Magdalen Chapel, as the most important surviving building in the Old Town of Edinburgh, the Hall, built in 1621, is now the Three Sisters hotel and restaurant. It owes its survival to a brewery which bought it in 1800 and used it for many years as a grain store. In 1638, it was the scene of a meeting of between two and three hundred clergymen who drafted the National Covenant for signing at Greyfriars the next day. From 1733 to 1747 it housed a theatre. 1302424
