Panmure House
Edinburgh Business School acquired Panmure House, the home of Adam Smith and an important historic building in Scotland in September 2008.
It is the intention of Edinburgh Business School to preserve and re-instate the building to reflect the lifestyle of Adam Smith and to use Panmure House to promote the study of business and economics and provide facilities for educational seminars and meetings.
In July 2011, permission for the restoration of Panmure House was granted to Edinburgh Business School following a period of negotiation with Edinburgh City Council and Historic Scotland, which culminated in a public inquiry in March 2011.

Famous quotes containing the word house:
“When you have eaten your fill and have built fine houses and live in them, and when your herds and flocks have multiplied, and your silver and gold is multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied, then do not exalt yourself, forgetting the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery...”
