The 'closes' of Edinburgh's Old Town are narrow passages branching off at right angles from the main streets. They provide access to the tenement buildings, and often to small shared courtyards. Many closes also act as shortcuts between Old Town's main streets.
Panmure Close was known as McKell's Close until Panmure House was built in 1691 for the 4th Earl of Panmure. Cadell House, at 129 Canongate, belonged to William Cadell (1668-1728), an Edinburgh merchant and freeman of Edinburgh whose grandson was a founder of the Carron Company Iron Works in Falkirk. The house was restored and converted to flats in 1954.
