Moray Place

Moray Place is one of several circles of housing forming part of Edinburgh's New Town.  It is situated about half a mile to the north of the West End of Princes Street.

The book, Modern Athens, wrote in 1829:  

"Its houses are of a very splendid character, and embrace every description of domestic accommodation."
