A late-1950s private housing estate on the southern outskirts of Edinburgh. Beyond my means when looking to buy my first house on arrival in Edinburgh in 1964 - £4000 for a detached 3-bedroom house; I had to make do with a semi for £3650. Looking towards Lothianburn golf course and the Hillend ski-centre on the slopes of Caerketton Hill.
