Eden Hall was originally part of the Swinburne Family property for whom it was built. The turreted entrance porch was apparently removed in the 1950s owing to dry rot. The house was requisitioned during the First World War for the care of wounded soldiers and a photograph album held at Edenhall Hospital, Musselburgh, illustrate the residence of the soldiers (and the turreted porch) at theKelso house after which the hospital was named.
