Lady Stair's Close

Lady Stair's Close is one of the Royal Mile closes.  These closes are narrow lanes on either side of the Royal Mile.  They pass between the high buildings and emerge into the Royal Mile.

Lady Stair's Close leads to the north from the Lawnmarket past Lady Stair's House, now the Writer's Museum, towards a point in the Mound close to the Free Church of Scotland's offices, looking down on the National Galleries of Scotland
