Archerfield is an area between Gullane and North Berwick on the east coast of Scotland on the A198 road.
On the estate during excavation when building the golf course and club house there were signs of a settlement being in the area dating circa 1080. King Edward I, and his troops were encamped at Archerfield during the English advance on Scotland in 1298. Sir John Nisbet acquired the Dirleton Estate in 1663 which the present Archerfield estate was part of. He built the present house circa 1690 to replace what was his previous home Dirleton Castle which stand as a ruin close by.
