The photograph above looks to the east along Inverleith Terrace from the western end of the street. The house in the foreground is 35 Inverleith Terrace. The photo was taken probably in the early 1900s, soon after the house had been built. Penny tells me that the photo above was published as a postcard but there was no name of the photographer or of the publisher on the postcard, and there is no stamp on her copy of the card. However the card has a 'divided back', one half to be used for the message and the other for the address, so it must have been published in 1902 or later.

Here is how the house looked about a century later, in 2010: |
