Mapping out Capital’s past

A NEW archive to bring Edinburgh’s colourful past to life has been launched.

Our Town Stories is a heritage website that will explore the history of the city through stories, pictures and maps.

Visitors can find out more about the history of the area they live in, the people who lived in their homes, and how the area has changed.

People can also be discovered in stories, including Women of Achievement and Robert Louis Stevenson’s Edinburgh.
