<\/a>Room I passed through at archives on way to a much more ordinary one<\/p><\/div>\n
After having the door closed on me, I was last out at closing time, I walked down the road, across the bridge and left onto the Royal Mile.\u00a0 I walked left along it to Holyrood Palace\u00a0and back again. \u00a0The photos are some of the sights I saw along the way.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Austere looking stone buildings although the coloured one has an odd addition to it<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a>Lots of odd turrets etc<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a>Interesting looking building – now a story telling cafe<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a>Building beside it – different frontage<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>Same buildings with addition of water cistern (big \u00a0structure on footpath) which was only available in the wee small hours and house behind it which John Knox lived in<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a>Not sure what these are. A building demolished of all but its front facade provided a view across the river to the structures above.<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a>Same area as previous photo<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a>Every now and then a break in the buildings would show a sign like the one above although I don’t remember other sculpture<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a>These buildings were down one of the small alley ways called a ‘close” although not the one from the previous photo<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a>Holyrood Palace, residence of Scot monarchs since the 16th century.\u00a0I arrived too late to enter<\/p><\/div>\n
