Old Photograph Dean Park Street Edinburgh Scotland

Old photograph of shops and houses on Dean Park Street in Stockbridge, Edinburgh, Scotland. The main road through Stockbridge is Raeburn Place, a street of mixed character, with numerous small shops at ground-floor level. The link from this street to the New town is via Deanhaugh Street and North West Circus Place. Saunders Street, south of the bridge, was built in 1974 as part of a "slum clearance" programme. The medical centre to its east is part of the same scheme. Gloucester Lane marks the line of the medieval road from the village to St Cuthberts Church at the city's West End. One building close to the Stockbridge end, predates the New Town. It is a merchant's house built about 1790 from the stones of demolished buildings in the Old Town and was the birthplace of the painter David Roberts, who worked as a scene painter at Edinburgh's Theatre Royal and later London's Covent Garden. Leslie Place, dating from the late Victorian period, joins the village to the western sections of the New Town: St Bernards Crescent; Carlton Street; Danube Street, Ann Street and Dean Terrace. To the north of this is a less formal area of narrower streets: Dean Street; Cheyne Street; Raeburn Street and Dean Park Street.
