A FAMOUS landmark atop North Berwick Law was in need of repair, reported the East Lothian Courier of December 8, 1995. The whale’s jawbone at the summit of North Berwick Law is to be repaired at a cost of about £700. The condition of the well-known local landmark has deteriorated over the decades and the town’s community councillors are keen to ensure it is saved for posterity. They approached the district council with their concerns and Macmerry-based specialists Ralph Plastics was contracted to do the job. They will restore the jawbone with fibre glass, and the protective railings around it will be repaired by Daw Engineering of Fenton Barns.
