Uncover the secrets of 17th-century medicine with a hands-on workshop led by an expert from his time, Dr Arnott. As the wealthiest resident of Mary King’s Close, Dr Arnott once owned not one but two properties on the street.

The question is, how did he make his fortune? Well, “urine” for a pee-culiar treat!
