Edinburgh and Scottish Collection
Morningside was once a village on a main road south from Edinburgh. In the 1850's it was no more than a row of thatched houses and a blacksmith's forge and beyond the Jordan Burn was open countryside. Nowadays it is predominantly residential with a collection of small traditional shops, restaurants, supermarkets, a library and hospitals.
Steel's Place was the site of a small factory owned by Dr Thomas Steel to make magnesia a component of "Gregory's Mixture", a medicine of the time.
