Lothian Road School (or Cambridge Street School as it was also known) was built by the Edinburgh School Board in 1880. The Gothic-style building , designed by Robert Wilson, however was demolished in 1910 to make way for the Usher Hall.
Lothian Road in Edinburgh runs from Earl Grey Street, near Tolcross, to the West End of Princes Street.
The Usher Hall is situated just off Lothian Road in Edinburgh. It was built between 1911 and 1914 with a donation from the brewer Andrew Usher. The concert hall serves as a venue for both classical and contemporary music.
