Buccleuch Place, north back, c 1985
Scope and Contents
Identified as the north side of Buccleuch Place, in part the site of the David Hume Tower. The school may have been in the building on the left or the title written by Alasdair Geddes may be wrong. The confusion has been made worse because some of the corresponding negatives have at some stage been placed incorrectly within their envelopes. See prints Coll-1167/B/27/18/9 and Coll-1167/B/27/19/7, where there is a reference to the Deaconess Hospital. The old Buccleuch Parish School (the building still stands, 1989) is to the west of Hope Park Square - hence, perhaps, some further confusion. Handwritten title by Alasdair Geddes.
