George Square is on the southern side of the Old Town of Edinburgh, about half a mile south of the Royal Mile.

Most of the houses in George Square were demolished around the 1960s to make way for the new tall buildings for Edinburgh University.

Here is the 'other'  postcard of one of Sir Walter Scott's homes, published by J R Russell:
