Old signs for

Leith Street Names

Following the amalgamation of Edinburgh and Leith in 1920, many of the street names in Leith were changed to avoid duplication of names.

However, some of the old names can still be found now chiselled into the stonework on the buildings and walls.  Here are a few.
