  • The Transformation of Edinburgh: Land, Property and Trust in the Nineteenth Century - Richard Rodger Frontmatter/Prelims More Information
    Cambridge University Press 0521602823 - The Transformation of Edinburgh: Land, Property and Trust in the Nineteenth Century - Richard Rodger Frontmatter/Prelims More information The Transformation of Edinburgh Land,Property and Trust in the Nineteenth Century This clear and lucid study explores the physical transformation of Edinburgh in the nineteenth century. It is based on a formidable amount of new archival research and is enriched with fascinating illustrative material. In a powerful analysis of how the law adapted to the new possi- bilities for profit created by urbanisation, Richard Rodger examines how the city of Edinburgh was transformed in the nineteenth century. A modern form of ‘feudalism’, he argues, was invented. It was the financial implications of this ‘feuing’ system, rather than an early form of town planning, that contributed much to the development of the Edinburgh New Town and, more significantly, to the character of urban develop- ment in nineteenth-century urban Scotland. Richard Rodger shows how the Church of Scotland, famous schools and educational endowments, as well as private trusts and small investors, all contributed to and benefited from urban expansion. He also explains how interconnected rural and urban interests were with revenue from the countryside recycled through urban property incomes. These and other relationships associated with the building of the city are explored at various levels, including a study of the largest builder in Edinburgh, James Steel, in a rags to riches, bankruptcy to baronetcy story that unveils how the process of urban development actually took place. Despite its genteel New Town and ‘douce’ suburbs Edinburgh, known locally as ‘Auld Reekie’ for its polluted atmosphere, experienced both environmental damage and congested living conditions.

The substance of the following pages was delivered first as a lecture at the opening of the Working Men's Institute, Stockbridge, in March 1866. It was after- wards re-delivered, with additional notes, as two lectures, in Dean Street United Presbyterian Church, on the evenings of the 24th and 26th January 1871. At the close of the last lecture, I was requested to publish what I had delivered. Circumstances have prevented me from complying with this request until now. In the interval I have been enabled to add a good deal of curious matter connected with the locality that did not appear in any of the lectures. It will be remembered that I speak of the Stockbridge of the past more than of the present. In the course of the narrative I have mentioned the sources from whence the most material parts of my information have been derived. I may add that the subject is by no means exhausted. ;; IV ntEFACE. In most cases the source of my information has been acknowledged, but I have specially to mention the following works : —Ballantine's Life of David Roberts Cunningham's Lives of the British Painters.
