Inch House with its walled garden stands in the centre of Inch Park, Glenallan Drive, Liberton. It is about 2.5 miles to the south-east of the centre of Edinburgh. The house has a date 1617 above its door. The house was extended in the 17th century and again probably in the late 18th century. Here is an engraving of the house published c.1890 Since 1984, the house has been used as a Community Centre. In front of the house is a children's playground Today, the right-hand side of the house can be recognised from the engraving above; additional floors have been added to the left-hand side of the house. |
