Edinburgh Notes

Welcome to Edinburgh Notes, an eclectic selection of Edinburgh jottings. The site is partly a city guide, part a history, partly a personal collection of "best bits" and ideas for what to do whilst you're here. Enjoy your visit, both to this website and to the city.

All original material on this website is written by Trevor Mendham, an Englishman now living and working in Edinburgh, Scotland. I hope you find some of it interesting, whether you're a tourist or a local, and that it gives you some ideas for where to go and how to spend your time. Here are a few of the latest additions:

Writers' Museum
Museum of Childhood
National Museum of Scotland
George Street
Edinburgh Fringe
