Handsome buildings and a relaxing riverside walk |
Queensferry Street (Bells Brae, Water of Leith) Edinburgh EH2 4PF United Kingdom |
Dean village has a "lost in time" feel about it. It is tucked away in a dip below the surrounding city areas and borders the Water of Leith. The settlement dates from the 12th century and developed around the industry of grain-milling over a period of 800 years. Today, its tranquillity and beautiful architecture, including some wonderfully converted warehouses, makes it a very desirable place to live. Take a charming walk along the Water of Leith, starting at the east and finishing at the west end of the path. Walk along towards the imposing arches of Dean Bridge and then head to the National Gallery of Modern Art. Review © 2007, Wcities |
