Old Photographs Juniper Green Scotland

Old photograph of Juniper Green located South West of Edinburgh, Scotland. Juniper Green's earliest mention is in the Kirk records of Colinton in 1707. However it is largely called Curriemuirend up until the end of the 18th century. Traditionally, its major industries were paper and snuff set in the river valley of the Water of Leith. Only with the building of a railway station in 1874 did the village begin to prosper.
