Madelvic House and Vehicle Production This Victorian red stone building was the original office of The Madelvic Motor Carriage Company. The company was founded in 1898, by William Peck (1862 – 1925), later knighted, for the manufacturing of electric vehicles. Madelvic was one of the first Scottish motor brands built in the first British purpose-built car factory, reputedly with a test track (23 years ahead of Fiat). It was also the first to go into liquidation, in 1900. All assets were bought by Kingsburgh Motor Company, which manufactured cars powered by internal combustion engine, but by 1902 it, too, had financial troubles. Over a short period of time other companies moved in manufacturing lorries and buses using bought-in components (Stirling’s Motor Carriages Ltd of Hamilton) and taxi-cabs (Scottish Motor Works).

Summary information Location and boundaries The Inverleith Conservation Area is located to the north of the New Town Conservation Area, 1.5 kilometres north of the city centre and covers an area of 232 hectares. The conservation area is bounded by Ferry Road to the north, the western boundary of Fettes College, the eastern boundary of Warriston Cemetery and Comely Bank/Water of Leith/Glenogle Road to the south. The boundary includes Fettes College, Inverleith Park, the Royal Botanic Garden, Warriston Cemetery and Tanfield. The area falls within Inverleith, Forth and Leith Walk wards and is covered by the Stockbridge/Inverleith, Trinity and New Town/Broughton Community Councils. The population of Inverleith Conservation Area in 2011 was 4887. Dates of designation/amendments The conservation area was originally designated in October 1977. The boundary was amended in 1996 and again in 2006 to exclude areas which no longer contributed to the character of the conservation area. A conservation area character appraisal was published in 2006, and a management plan in 2010. The Stockbridge Colonies were removed from the Inverleith Conservation Area boundary in 2013 to form a separate conservation area.

  • The Register of Burials in the Churchyard of Restalrig 1728
    lifelii p" I (SCOTTISH RECORD SOCIETY, INDEX TO THE REGISTER OF BURIALS IN THE CHURCHYARD OF RESTALRIG, 1728-1854. c EDITED BY FRANCIS J. GRANT, W.S., ROTHESAY HERALD AND LYON CLERK.- EDINBURGH : t) hos PRINTED FOR THE SOCIETY BY JAMES SKINNER & COMPANY 1908. EDINBURGH: PRINTED BY JAMES SKINNER ANU COMPANY. 54- PREFACE. The village of Restalrig is situated in the parish of South Leith and on the eastern outskirts of the city of Edinburgh. It is a place of great antiquity, and in pre-Reformation times its collegiate church was the parish church of Leith. At the Reformation the church, which was dedicated to St. Triduana, was ordered by the General Assembly to be -razed and utterly cast down as a monument of idolatry, and the parishioners ordained to repair to St. Mary's Church at Leith, a sentence which was only too faithfully carried out. The edifice remained a ruin till the year 1836, when the present chapel of ease was constructed out of its remains. Though ceasing to be a place of worship after 1560, the churchyard continued to be a place of sepulchre, and after the disestablish- ment of Episcopacy in 1689 was used by the members of that body as a place of burial when denied the right to conduct service in other places. In 1726, with the sanction of John, Lord Balmerino, and James, Lord Coupar, his son, the proprietors of the Barony, the Friendly Society of Restalrig was constituted, and to its care the ruined church and church- yard were made over. The first members of this Society were Messrs.

However, following on from a couple of heavy defeats at early pace setters Dalkeith and Portobello, they managed to get a victory at home to Earlston last week and they too will be hoping to build on their success. Inverleith’s start to the season has been pale in insignificance to the shocking news that, Tony Cramb an active Inverleith club member, sadly passed away. Through his work in the bank and some tussles on the pitch, Tony was well known to Leith members and will be greatly missed in the rugby community. Everyone at Leith Rugby’s thoughts go out to “Our thoughts Tony’s family and friends and also his team mates at this time. go out to Tony’s Away from senior rugby and you will have noticed the increased visibility family and friends of our Youth Rugby Charity as we look to kick on from the excellent work we completed before the summer into the autumn and winter terms.
