A historic place is not a company: no company number, and no owner to trace. It is a designation published by Historic Environment Scotland, and this record quotes their open data as read on 29 October 2026. No opening hours, prices or public-access claim is carried, because the source carries none. Historic Environment Scotland states that this data is indicative only. The point on this record is the place itself taken from OpenStreetMap rather than a boundary centre, because Historic Environment Scotland publishes one representative point per designated area and for a battlefield or a designed landscape that point is the middle of the boundary. OpenStreetMap information point "Battle of Prestonpans" (node/6680454614), 538 m from the HES boundary point. OpenStreetMap data is used under the Open Data Commons Open Database Licence, (c) OpenStreetMap contributors, and this one point is the whole of what comes from it.
