Exploring Leith and Newhaven in Edinburgh, Scotland

Exploring Leith and Newhaven in Edinburgh, Scotland.
One from the archive, Leith is located to the north of Edinburgh on the south shore of the Firth of Forth. It used to be entirely separate from Edinburgh with its own council and burgh status. It only became a formal part of the city in 1920. It still contains its own distinct identity and community feel and is really worth visiting.

Newhaven is a characterful district located between Leith and Granton. It's a former harbour town on the Firth of Forth and has been a designated conservation area since the late 1970's. Many of the older harbour properties are colourful and distinctive with stairs leading to an upper floor while the lower ground floors were used to store fishing nets.

Both Leith and Newhaven have lots of fantastic independent shops cafes and restaurants that make it a great place to visit while in Edinburgh.
