Description
First published in four volumes in the early 1980s, Historic South Edinburgh has become a highly sought-after and rare volume. This new edition combines all four volumes into one, featuring extensive revisions and updates with recent research and information.
The story of Edinburgh's South Side is an integral part of its history, spanning over 150 years from the opening of North Bridge in 1772 to the present day. The area grew steadily southwards, shaped by the city's growth and development. This book offers a fascinating insight into the region's past, with many new illustrations and anecdotes.
Covering areas such as The Meadows, Marchmont, Sciennes, and others, Historic South Edinburgh is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in Edinburgh's history and heritage. With its rich content and extensive research, this book provides a unique perspective on the city's development and growth.
