Rosemount Buildings, Gardner's Crescent
Mid-Victorian dwellings for the artisan class, built by a housing association in 1859. Entrances at its four corners give access to a delightfully kept inner court belied by the rather austere exterior. The block was modernised by the Fountainbridge Housing Association in 1980.
