I latterly realised that when I I had to go through the same exercise of describing where it was for a second time. Use pub! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 1 hour ago, Maroon Sailor said: I thought it was Harewood with the old Craigmillar Hearts supporters club in the background Yes I am sure you are correct I wondered at the time why there were no Niddrie Mains Terrace houses showing. Like you say that would be the bit of grass at the end of the Terrace where the Hearts club was. That street was another place of my history. A woman came to the police box at 6.00am, said her daughter was having severe stomach cramps. We went to the house to check before calling the doctor and the girl was on her back. legs spread and the head of a baby starting to appear. I ran to the nurses house on Greendykes and they came and concluded the birth. My partner a father prepared a wee bed in a cabinet drawer for the new one. I left the house was stopped by Wullie the milkman who told me there was an awful smell of gas from a house across the road. Found the house broke open the door and found a woman dead in the gas oven, suicide over an affair that went wrong. In the space of just over an hour I handled a birth and a death. On the trip home in the bus six hours later got funny looks because as my wife told me when I got home my uniform still stunk of gas.

Cade Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Been looking through the various old maps of Embra and the surrounding area on this site recently https://maps.nls.uk/towns/#edinburgh-city Some very interesting proposed builds which never happened, including this entire "New New Town" in what is now Easter Road. It explains why Leopold Place and the top end of Leith Walk is so fancy. It's amazing to see the evolution of the city in these maps.
