I've not gone around Edinburgh again, visiting all the police box locations, to see which boxes have been removed following recent sales.  However, Neil Lawrence has now sent me the message below.

Longstone and Shandon Crescent

"I see that the Police Boxes at Longstone and Shandon Crescent have been remove in the last year.  One has re-appeared on the south side of George Square as a coffee kiosk.  Do you have any idea what has happened to the other one?"

Neil Lawrence, Fountainbridge, Edinburgh:  June 26, 2014

Reply to Neil

Hi Neil. 

1.  I don't know where the other police box that you mention is now.  Perhaps somebody will find it then send a message to me.  If they do, I'll add their message to this page.

2.  You refer to the new box, installed this year at George Square.  I took photos of  that box being installed at the SW corner of George Square early in 2014.  I passed it again a few weeks later and photographed it in use as a coffee stall.

I spoke to the person serving the coffee and asked him if he knew where the box had been situated previously.  He said he understood that it had come out of storage.

Reply to Neil

Hi Neil. 

I'll see if I can discover where that Police Box came from.  However, I'll not add Straiton to the list of locations above.  I'm only listing the boxes on the streets in Edinburgh on that list.

Planning Applications

"I checked with the Planning Department today.  Lots of applications  for siting police boxes at new locations have been refused or withdrawn"

Lauriston Place and Morrison Street

"A couple of Applications have been granted, but the police boxes have not materialised at their new locations, outside the Blood Donation Centre at Lauriston Place and opposite the EICC extension on Morrison Street."

Cowgate

"The police box on the Cowgate, at the foot of High School Yards steps, is away,  It is due to re-appear further up the road near the morgue, pretty much where it used to sit before they moved it.

The move is apparently something to do with bringing it inside the boundary of the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Straiton

"The police box that I saw at Straiton must be a new addition, as I don’t see it on Aerial Photos or Google Street View, It's an interesting one as it had the old light on top, which is pretty rare.

I'll get a picture when I head up to Stewart Brewing next.

Thank you to Jonathan Elders, current owner of the Police Box at Pier Place, beside Newhaven Harbour, who wrote to tell me about the plans for his own box and several other boxes around Edinburgh.

Edinburgh ex-Police Box Collective

"I'm part of Edinburgh (ex) Police Box Collective. We are a group of creative types fortunate enough to have bought boxes about Edinburgh.

We are an eclectic bunch of artisans, very keen that to celebrate these boxes and to keep them functioning as part of local communities.

We have also just created this Edinburgh's ex Police Boxes Facebook page."

Jonathan Elders, Edinburgh:  March 20, 2015

Facebook Page

Police Boxes

"I've just had a look at the Facebook page that Jonathan refers to above.  It has a few photos of Edinburgh Police Boxes, showing their recent or current use, including:

 Inverleith Row Flower Box with its 'Ding Dong' door mat

-   Croal Place box, with people in costume beside it.

Pier Place box at Newhaven, to be launched on May 29, 2015.

-  a box (where?) selling 'gluten-free crepes and other delights'."

 Festival

"The facebook page also mentions that there is to be an (ex) Police Box Festival "all over town" on 4-5 July, 2015."

Newhaven Harbour Box

"My box (Newhaven Harbour box) is going to get a repaint in summer and is going to be a small art studio for myself and other to make and display art from.

The launch of the Newhaven box, on 29th May, will be in 2 parts:

-  2-5 pm:  a circus and comedy event aimed at children.

-  7-9 pm:  a comedy story telling night with stories from locals.

The festival at Newhaven, on 4-5 July 2015, will have lots of different events happening simultaneously at all the boxes within the group for the 2 days. With box owners wooing off their creative produce or having performances to entertain visitors."

Croal Place Box

"Monty who owns the box at Croal Place, Leith Walk has recently opened it as a pop art venue."

Water of Leith Box

"Moira is currently converting her box by the Water of Leith into a florist."   (Jonathan:  Where, by the Water of Leith, is this box?)

Bruntsfield Links Box

"Felicity is going to turn her box near Bruntsfield Links into a costume studio."

West Port, Grassmarket Box

"My cousin, Lucy, and I recently bought the Grassmarket police box, and we are hoping to convert it into an ice cream kiosk. 😊

We have a dairy farm in The Borders and use our own milk cream and eggs to make the ice cream."

Police Box Festival

4 + 5 July, 2015

Admission Free

"This year, for the first time, several of the owners of the former Police Boxes have come together to stage a Police Box Festival.  They hope that this might become an annual event, and that other owners will join them in future years.

Ten Police Boxes are included in the festival this weekend.  Brief details about the what can be seen at each of the boxes.  A map showing their locations was provided on the Edinburgh ex-Police Boxes web site, but the map appears to have now been removed from the Internet.  The Edinburgh Evening News also reported on the plans for the festival  (Fri. 3 July, 2015:   pp.3 + 27)

I visite several of the boxes today.

-  I saw pictures of Newhaven (and some knitting!) in and beside the box in Pier Place, Newhaven Harbour.

-  I saw and heard a variety of musical instrument being played outside the box at Lauriston Place / Middle Meadow Walk.

-  I heard more live music behind the box that sells soup at St Patrick's Square, near the former Odeon Cinema.

-  I learnt about a charity that has created a 'Tool LIbrary', the first in Britain, when I visited the box at Shrub Place.

-  I saw  books donated by the National Library of Scotland on display on  shelves inside the box at Drummond Street, part of a project to encourage reading.

-  I heard recordings of bird songs, taken along the Water of Leith, inside the box beside the Water of Leith at Canonmills.

I took a few photos.  Maybe, one day, I'll find the time to add some of them to the EdinPhoto web site.  I enjoyed visiting the boxes today.  I hope you do, if you decide to visit any of them tomorrow.
