	Stockbridge 1024 x 768 197K	This attractive footbridge leads from Rocheid Path to Bell Place, one of the Stockbridge 'colonies' streets.
	Stockbridge 2 1024 x 768 284K	Taken from the footpath which runs parallel to Inverleith Terrace. The 'colonies' are visible across the Water Of Leith.
	NW Circus Place 00 724 x 864 162K	The first of four shots of this part of Stockbridge near the bottom of the steep main road down from Princes Street. Much of this road is still cobbled with granite setts. On the way down it changes its name as follows: Frederick Street, Queen Street Gardens West, Howe Street, South East Circus Place, Circus Place, NW Circus Place, Kerr Street, Deanhaugh Street, Raeburn Place - all in less than one kilometre.
	NW Circus Place 01 648 x 864 126K	These photos were taken from Kerr Street at the end of St Stephen Street, on the southern banks of the Water of Leith. This second shot is just to the right of the previous view. The steep cobbled lane to the right of the tenement building is Gloucester Street.
	NW Circus Place 02 1152 x 864 220K	A wider view of the entire triangular block, backed by India Place.
	NW Circus Place 03 1152 x 864 183K	Photographed from the corner of India Place, looking across NW Circus Place to St Stephen Street.
	NW Circus Place 05 stair 768 x 1024 203K	When approached from India Street, these tenements could be perceived as having a basement and a sub-basement. This is quite common in Edinburgh's New Town. However, the sub-basement is at street level as seen from North West Circus Place. A series of short stairways connects the two streets.
	NW Circus Place 07 bus 768 x 1024 194K	The same red pillar box appears in this photo as seen from the stairs up to India Street. A single-decker LRT bus is trundling down the stone setts of North West Circus Place. The junction on the right is St Stephen Street.
	NW Circus Place 09 Stair 768 x 1024 184K	A shot from below the stairs, beside the street-level sub-basement (see above).
	India Street Police Box 1152 x 864 163K	If you climb the stairs in the previous picture you'll enter India Street, a quiet New Town street where James Clerk Maxwell lived (see page 6 of this section). This old police box is, suprisingly, not besmirched by graffiti.
	Belford to Haymarket 1280 x 854 428K	If you walk the riverside path between Belford Bridge and Roseburn you'll find this stairway up to the area behind the former Donaldson's School.
	Belford Bridge 1280 x 854 307K	There's a footbridge here (not shown) over to the walkway at the other side of the river. The steps here lead to private gardens behind Douglas Crescent.
	Water of Leith 3 938 x 1024 279K	Further downstream in Stockbridge there are a variety of building types overlooking the Water of Leith.
	Water of Leith 4 1280 x 854 291K	This shows the footpath from Deanhaugh Street bridge to Bridge Place and Glenogle Road.
	Water of Leith 5 1280 x 912 246K	Some interesting balconies and verandas with good views of the river.
