Old Photograph Canongate Tolbooth Edinburgh Scotland


Old photograph of the Canongate Tolbooth, Edinburgh, Scotland. The Canongate is a small district at the heart of Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland. The main street running through the area is called Canongate. The street, forms the lower part of the Royal Mile in Edinburgh's historic Old Town. Until formal incorporation into Edinburgh in 1856, Canongate was a separate burgh. The easterly end of the Canongate is sometimes regarded as being in the Holyrood area of the city, with the rest being in the Old Town, rather than being considered an area in its own right. The Canongate is named after the canons of Holyrood Abbey and the Scots word gait meaning " road ". The Canongate contains many notable public buildings, including the Museum of Edinburgh and the People's Story Museum, located in the historic Canongate Tolbooth.
