The surviving estate wall and policy trees that form the Bonnyfield Strip and the southern part of Davidson’s Mains Park make a major contribution to views on the west approach to Edinburgh along Queensferry Road.

  • P7 Leavers Yearbook
    2020 Clermiston Primary P 7 L E A V E R S Y E A R B O O K TABLE OF CONTENTS 3 Message from Mr McIntyre 8 Pupil Profiles Message from Mrs Hamilton- 5 Irvine and Miss Passaretti 67 Messages from friends 6 Primary 1 Photo Gallery 69 Teacher Signatures A MESSAGE FROM MR MCINTYRE Dear Primary 7 Every year I write a letter to P7s to wish them a fond farewell as they leave Clermiston and get ready to start their time at High School. As you can imagine, this year has made it extra-difficult to know what to say. I thought about it for ages and ages and then I wrote… Ooft! But I didn’t think that was quite good enough and so I up-levelled it a bit… Ooft! What a year that was eh? But then I thought, maybe that wasn’t good enough either. I remembered that Primary 7 is only one year of your Primary School life. Some of you have been with us for 9 years if you include nursery. Lots of you have been with us from Primary 1 and lots of you have joined us on your own journey through Primary School. So then I wrote this… Ooft! What a year that was eh? You have all been through a unique Primary 7 year that no-one could have predicted. I feel for you all that you didn’t get to have the Primary 7 Summer Term that you deserved and that you would have enjoyed so much.

  • Proposed Improvements for People Walking and Cycling in Davidson's
    Proposed improvements for people walking and cycling in Davidson’s Mains Park Issue: The existing path between Queensferry Road and East Barnton Avenue, which is part of the John Muir Way, is narrow, only partially surfaced and poorly lit. This makes it substandard and unattractive for people to use for walking, cycling and wheelchair access. Additionally, the waiting area for pedestrians to cross Queensferry Road towards Clermiston Road North is not large enough to accommodate those waiting to cross at peak times, nor does it provide conspicuity to pedestrians and cyclists waiting to cross. Purpose and context: The scheme will make it easier and safer for people to travel through Davidson’s Mains Park, in order to travel to and from National Cycle Route 1, to destinations such as Corstorphine Hill and Lauriston Castle, and to local amenities and The Royal High School. It will also help pedestrians and cyclists crossing Queensferry Road at Clermiston Road North. The Council is developing a network of cycle routes across the city, called the ‘QuietRoutes’ network. We know that heavy or fast traffic is the most significant barrier preventing people who want to cycle from doing so. To address this, the QuietRoutes are being designed so that people can cycle without having to be with heavy or fast traffic. Proposed scheme: The Council is proposing a number of improvements to the paths in Davidson’s Mains Park, which aim to reduce conflict between different path users and to improve conditions for those walking and cycling in the area. The proposed improvements include: • Path widening, lighting and surfacing improvements between Queensferry Road and East Barnton Avenue through Davidson’s Mains Park; • Wild garden area within Davidson’s Mains Park to be enlarged; • Improved transition area for cyclists at East Barnton Avenue; • A larger waiting area on the north side of Queensferry Road at Clermiston Road North for cyclists and pedestrians waiting to cross; We would like your views on the initial design proposals and any other comments you have.
