Jacob's Ladder is a staircase
leading from the foot of New Street, up the hill to the north to Regent
Road that runs along the foot of
Calton Hill past the
former
Royal High School.
Plans were announced to
replace this by a much larger staircase up the hill as part of the
Caltongate
development, but the developers have now, in January 2006 shelved plans
for a larger staircase. |
