Home and
School
"I was born and lived in Primrose Street in
Leith and attended the Leith Academy primary school and Lochend
Road school, although
my schooling was disrupted by having to follow my dad around.
He was in the army.
Return to Edinburgh
"I
now live in Dorset,
and have made a couple trips back to Leith.
I was shocked and disappointed to find that:
- Lochend Road
school building has been demolished .
-
the tenements in Primrose St
have also been demolished"
Questions
"Does anyone know:
-
if the old residents were all rehoused
in a specific area?
-
where I might find images of Primrose Street from
the 1940s era?
Any advice would be so appreciated."
