Trinity House is an elegant Georgian house, the home of the Incorporation of Shipowners and Shipmasters, an organisation dating back to the 14th century. Successive generations of Masters and members of Trinity House have been closely involved in the history and maritime development of Leith. Thomas Brown designed the present Trinity House in 1816 on the site of the medieval mariner's hospital. It houses a collection of maritime memorabilia.
