Research Day Two - ScotlandsPeople Centre

We returned to ScotlandsPeople Centre today and enjoyed another productive day. Lots of information discovered in Census records, OPRs, statutory records and Valuation Rolls.

Late afternoon, I found myself fading rather quickly, so decided to take a jaunt up Calton Hill. Fortunately the weather was co-operative making the jaunt quite a pleasant one.






The top of Calton Hill offers spectacular views of both Holyrood House with the Salisbury Craggs in the back ground
 



and of the Old Town of Edinburgh.
