Care home takes an Inch with name choice

A NEW care home in Liberton is to be called Inch View after local schoolchildren helped name it.

Pupils from Liberton Primary drew up a list of possible names for the new building, off Gilmerton Road, and residents and staff of Balmwell House and Craigour care homes then voted on the name.

The move to the new home is due to take place in the spring.

Councillor Norman Work, the city's deputy health leader, said: "Inch View is a name that fits in perfectly with the history of the area and I'm sure that the local community will give a warm welcome to residents and staff."
