  • Dean Village Area | Attractions | All About Edinburgh

    Dean Village at the Water of Leith mentioned by King David I in 1143. Dean Village Edinburgh Dean Village Dean Village was a small village outside Edinburgh known as Water o Leith Village, and was famous as a grain milling area for over 800 years. The name Dean (Dene) meaning Deep Gorge. The village has steep hills on all sides. The Dean Village with the Water of Leith flowing through, grew as a community in the 1100s from the many mills that were built on the river banks. You will see many stones carved with crossed paddles of the bakers, as this area supplied all the bakers of Edinburgh with their flour. The Incorporation of Baxters (bakers) was a crucial role in Dean Village, controlling the grain milling industry from the 12th century. Mills were first mentioned in 1143 by David I. Dean Bridge - Kirkbrae House The house on the corner of the bridge was once a Tavern and Bakers, the square panel on the wall shows a sun with two arms below, one holding scales and the other a wheat sheaf, with two baker’s paddles crossed. The inscription below reads: IN THE SWEAT OF THY FACE SHALT | THOU EAT BREAD | GEN 3 VERSE 19 | ANNO DOM 1619 Known as ‘The Baxter’s Stone. Put on this wall in 1893 from a demolished mill. The Dean Bridge The Dean Bridge was designed by Thomas Telford, and was completed in 1832 and opened in 1833. The Dean Bridge was Thomas Telford’s last project at the age 73 and retirement. The Dean Bridge with 4 arches is 447 feet long (136m) and 39 feet wide (12m) and built on four arches rising 106 feet (32m) above the river. Prior to the building of the Dean Bridge the only way across the river in to Edinburgh was by a ford in the river, which had been crossed since medieval times (5th to 15th centuries). A bridge, of wooden structure across the water of Leith was built in the 5th century. It is now a stone bridge (Bell’s Brae Bridge). The building of Dean Bridge gave access to the north for further extension of Edinburgh’s New Town. Views from the Dean Bridge Looking over the Dean Bridge West the Dean Village, East the New Town Randolph Cliff built on series of underground stone arches. The arches protect Randolph Cliff, Randolph Crescent, Great Stuart Street, Ainslie Place, and Moray Place from tumbling down into the Water of Leith. Designed by 1822 by, architect James Gillespie Graham for Francis Stuart, the 10th Earl of Moray on the Moray Estate which covers most of the western new town. The Dean Village and looking down a sailor down on his luck wondering if I jump will I survive. Holy Trinity Episcopal Church Gothic church at the North end of the Dean Bridge. The church is in its original state from when design / built by John Henderson, 1837-8. Henderson has built many churches in Scotland to a Gothic design. The church was converted into an electric sub-station in 1957. It is now the Rhema Christian Centre Church. Belgrave and Buckingham Area Belgrave Crescent was built on land bought by property developer and Lord Provost of Edinburgh James Steel, Designed by John Chesser and completed in 1874. The land between Water of Leith and the new houses also purchased by Steel, which became private gardens for the residents. The gardens designed by James Jeffery and completed in 1876. Buckingham Terrace was also part of the Steel development designed by Chesser which was completed in 1831. Bristo Baptist Church In 1765 in Bristo Place Original Scotch Baptist Church ‘the Scotch Baptist Church’ Bristo Baptist Church is the mother church for the Baptist movement in Scotland. A purpose-built chapel was constructed at Bristo Place in 1836. The designation ‘Scotch’ was discontinued from the church’s title in 1927. In 1932, the present site here on Buckingham Terrace was purchased for £1,000 In October 1933, the Memorial Stone of the new building on Queensferry Road was laid and the first service took place on Wednesday, 20th February, 1935. The church has a long history and is the second oldest Baptist church in Scotland Bible on Dean Path side inscription: SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES S. JOHN V. CH.39 The Dean Parish Church The first church in Dean Path was built in 1836 then demolished and replaced by the present church in 1903. This was the main church for the Dean Village population. With the reducing congregation the church closed in 2006. It is now known as The Dean and is used as an Assembly Hall and Event Venue for the nearby Erskine Stewart’s Melville Schools (ESMS). Dean Cemetery Edinburgh The Dean Village is named from Dean House and the Nisbet family who owned the lands. The House was demolished in 1843 and in 1845 the Dean Cemetery was created. A carved heraldic panel from Dean House, now installed on a wall in Dean Cemetery, is decorated with three boars’ heads around a chevron, all surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves, and carries the initials HN for Henry Nisbet born 1535 who died in 1608 The Notable Graves of The Dean Cemetery David Octavius Hill, Colonel Robert Smith, James Buchanan, Lord Francis Jeffrey, James Falshaw James Nasmyth, Alexander Nasmyth Artist, Lord Henry Cockburn, Robert McVitie, Lord Andrew Rutherfurd, James Hamilton, Sir Thomas Bouch, Alexander Russell, James Stevenson, William H Playfair, George Combe, Cameron Highlanders Obelisk, Robert Chamber, Sir John Ritchie Findlay, Thomas Drybrough, Flora Stevenson, Louisa Stevenson, Elsie Inglis, Dr Joseph Bell (LINK TO CEMETERY ) 29 Dean Path The house on Dean Path was dates from circa 1790 with a Victorian-era post box ("VR" Cypher) circa 1850 still present. This may have been the post house in its time. The tenements in Dean Path, now all demolished and rebuilt, were where most of the families lived. Dean Village School The Old School house on Bell’s Brae was built in 1872 and a historic part of the Dean Village. The public school educated the local children until it closed in 1961. It was able to hold up to 400 children by 1961 there were only 37 pupils. Carvings can be seen "Education" above the ground floor windows and a tablet on the front with the words “Edinburgh School Board 1875” Old West Mill Building The stone building over the bridge with round windows is the Old West Mill, built in 1805. At the top of the building you can see a wheat sheaf. The mill is one of few surviving examples in the Dean Village of its former industrial heritage. Particularly based on grain milling, many of which utilised power provided by the Water of Leith. Bells Brae Bridge In the centre of the Dean village is the Bells Brae Bridge which was the original crossing point of the Water of Leith as it was shallow and narrow. Getting to and from Edinburgh this the only crossing. In the 5th century a single arch bridge which was wide enough for a carriage with horses. The Dean Village stands below the Belford Bridge which was built in 1887 to carry Belford Road. Bells Brae Bridge was built in 1830 replacing previous bridges, the old road from Edinburgh to Queensferry. Well Court- Dean Village The most impressive buildings are of Well Court.

Dean Path Footbridge This foot bridge takes you over the Water of Leith from Hawthornbank Lane to Well Court, Old West Mill and the Village School house. Along the water side about 100 metres is a waterfall which was a weir (a low dam) which was used to power the mills. A great variety of wild life. The Plague The burgh records mention that the pest was in the Dene On the 15th June 1513 and no one from the area was allowed to enter the walls of Edinburgh. If a women entered she would be branded on the cheek. If a man entered the punishment would be sever even hung. Merchants House 17 Bells Brae The building on the south west corner of Bell’s Brae Bridge is one of the oldest buildings that still remains from the Water of Leith Village built circa 1650. 17 Bells Brae, was where the head of the local merchants' guild lived who oversaw the village's milling industry. It was also a local shop run by A W Kemp in the 20th century The Granary | Old Tollbooth The Granary was built in 1675 (yellow building in photo) known as the Old Tollbooth Inscribed in two lines GOD BLESS THE BAXTERS OF EDINBURGH WHO BUILT THIS HOUS 1675.

Miller’s Row On the pathway towards Leith under the Dean Bridge is an area called Miller’s Row old houses for the mill workers. Also you can see three mill stones resting against each other previously used in the Granaries in the 1600s. Look over the wall to see a waterfall which is another part of the weir St George's Well The Water of Leith and the source of the mineral water for St Bernard's Well and St George's Well. St George's Well is on the banks of the Water of Leith near to Alexander Nasmyth's St Bernard's Well. Built in 1810 by Mr MacDonald of Stockbridge on the 50th year on the throne to commemorate the jubilee of George III. King George III celebrated his Golden Jubilee on October 25, 1809, marking the beginning of his 50th year on the throne. It was the first significant jubilee celebration in British history. The well was finally blocked up in 1969. St Bernard's Well A natural mineral spring was discovered on the Water of Leith near to Stockbridge in 1760, some claimed that the water could cure everything. Francis Garden, Lord Gardenstone of Troup the landowner, commissioned a building in 1789 to be erected over the well Alexander Nasmyth designed a Doric Temple, a copy of the Temple to the Sybil at Tivoli, the summer palace of the Roman emperors. The Temple has a domed ceiling supported by 10 columns which covers the statue of Hygeia, the Greek goddess of health The Well closed in 1940. There are two mineral wells on the Water of Leith one called St Bernard's Well and the other well a short distance west and this is called St George’s Well. This was also to have the same powers as St Bernard’s well but was never used to the extent of St Bernard's well. Hygeia Greek Goddess of Health The well named after St Bernard of Clairvaux (1090–1153) a French abbot, theologian, and major leader in the reform of the Cistercian Order which was present over Scotland, in 1136 an invitation of King David I lead to many Abbeys being built.

    Granton is an area of Edinburgh that is close to the Firth of Forth. There are many attractions in the area and Granton Harbour was where the first train Ferry ran in the UK. Also the first purpose built car manafacturer and assembly factory in the world. Granton Area Edinburgh Granton Harbour First known as Grantaine Cragge, the present pier stands on the site that the Earls of Shrewsbury and Hertford landed with an English army before marching to Leith and burning it to the ground in 1544. Granton Harbour was built by the Duke of Buccleuch and partly opened for the Queen's coronation in 1838 and completed in 1844. The jetty was named after the Queen the Victoria Jetty. Granton Harbour was used for commercial haulage, and was where many ships were built, the first being launched in 1853. A passenger ferry service was started by the Duke of Buccleuch between Granton and Burntisland in 1849 and the worlds first rail ferry started in 1850, where a passenger took the train from Canal Street Station (later to be renamed Waverley) to Dundee without getting of the train. Granton harbour is returning to be popular harbour with sailing boats, mooring for over 120 boats. Caroline House Caroline House was built in 1685 for Sir George Mackenzie. In 1683 Mackenzie bought the Barony of Royston which once boasted a castle, and quickly built what was originally known as Royston House Lord Royston sold the house in 1739 the 2nd Duke of Argyll who renamed it Caroline Park after his daughter Caroline. The house then became the residence of the Duke of Buccleuch in 1793 and remained in their ownership until 1872. Old Granton House Granton Castle The house was built by the Earl of Hopetoun in 1807 on the Duke of Buccleuch’s estate which was next to Caroline House. In 1954 the house was all but ruined by fire. A walled Garden and Do'cot are still visible. Muir House Granton Edinburgh Muirhouse was built in 1832 by Captain William Davidson on the site of the first House which was built circa 1670. Which was demolished a year prior to the new house being complete The furniture and paintings of old Muirhouse were moved into the new house and all that remained of the old house were two ivy clad turrets at each end. Granton Lighthouse depot for the Northern Lighthouse Board (NLB). The Board was responsible for maintaining all the lighthouses in Scotland. Supplies for the lighthouses were stored at the depot, and taken by boat to the various lighthouses by vessels which the Board owned. The lantern on top of the building, similar to a real lighthouse, was used for training and to test lights before they were put into in service. Craigroyston House Craigroyston House built circa 1800 on the shore of the Firth of Forth with views over to Fife. Madelvic House Granton Hub The Madelvic Motor Carriage Company was opened in 1898 and was one of the first to build electric motor vehicles in Britain. The first electric commercial vehicles built at the factory were used by the General Post Office on the 14th May 1899. Madelvic is believed to be the oldest purpose-built car factory in the UK. The founder Sir William Peck was the Astronomer of the city of Edinburgh the post created after the retirement of the Astronomer Royal for Scotland Piazzi Smyth. Peck lived in Inverleith Row where he died on 8 March 1925 at the age of 63 after a long illness. Madelvic House is now an arts and community centre the Granton Hub.
