EP2 Powderhall and St Marks
Another micro-history of the Powderhall and St Marks area in Edinburgh. We stop for a chat with a local business owner with a very interesting property, and we learn about the origins of the name Powderhall. It's an area with a lot of industrial heritage so we'll learn about a few of the more interesting local endeavours too. Recorded out and about so expect a little background noise here and there!Created by Ruth GrayProduced by David O'Reilly Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

EP1 Warriston Cemetery
Take a walk with me around one of Edinburgh's true hidden gems - Warriston Cemetery. The city's largest cemetery opened in the 1840s and is a fine example of a Victorian 'garden cemetery'. But its so much more than an old graveyard...We'll meet some of its residents, both dead and alive, and learn about some of its notable moments in its 180 year history.
