Scope and Content Sundials on Dunbar Town-house, East Lothian Dunbar Town-house built after 1593 when the inhabitants were ordered to cart stones from the quarry at Innerwick 'for the bigging of the Tolbuth'. It replaced an earlier tolbooth so ruinous that once a court was held in the churchyard. The sundials on the steeple were painted by Alexander Mackbyth in 1686. There was probably also a burgh clock by this date. Mackbyth also painted the council-chamber, including two coats of arms. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
