Meadowbank Shopping Park, London Road
The retail park was built on a site formerly occupied by an ironworks and the Moray Park Maltings and transport repair workshops of Scottish & Newcastle Breweries Ltd. The buildings shown above belonged to the London Road Foundry of Miller & Co. (est. 1867) until its closure in the 1990s. The low building was the workshops frontage, while the turreted tenement behind housed the company offices. The foundry specialised in the manufacture of cast-iron rollers primarily for use in the paper industry, as well as railway wagon wheels and gear wheels.

Early Victorian tenement, Comely Green Place
A tenement of quality in the full Edinburgh New Town style, curiously isolated amidst a variety of old industrial premises, car show-rooms and modern apartment blocks. The Victorian sculptor, David Watson Stevenson, whose works adorn the Scott Monument, the Scottish National Portrait Gallery and the Wallace Memorial in Stirling once lived at No.7.
