Thanks also to @hi_spiltmilk for pointing this out. @_CitizenCurator has been looking for a photo of Grace for months. She lived at 145 Leith Walk, which became a refuge for many notable Suffrage campaigners, including Ethel Moorhead on her release from prison in Calton Jail.

@sarasheridan @lesleyorr14 @Nik_M_Macdonald This may be too late (! ) but browsing on a Friday afternoon in @NatGalleriesSco Portrait Archive I found a photo of Grace Cadell 🤩 📷 by Leith Walk photographer John Campbell Harper

Great to see @Leithcomcentre stepping up for Sunday opening. Its the town hall for #Leith and needs to be used! Get in touch for details.

[Leith Community Centre @Leithcomcentre]

Looking for room or hall space in #Leith on Sundays? We can help! Also happy to consider partnership opportunities. Get in touch with us for a chat.

For those of you who didn’t see @STVNews tonight here’s a copy of their feature on the unnecessary closure of Leith Walk Cafe and @leithdepot #saveleithwalk #extendthelease #DoTheRightThing #drumpropertygroup #7IM @7IM_PressOffice @ustewart @GroupDrum

[Leith Creative @LeithCreative]

From the ever informative @TheBEFS newsletter and @scotgov research 'Rent affordability in the affordable housing sector’, Perhaps not unsurprising to note that #Edinburgh registers the highest social rents across #Scotland https://t.co/DjF9byVUgl

We asked 750 of our members, who has the most power in the planning system? This is what they said.

Great account from our young mums at the Citadel. Take 5 minutes to read it online. These mums are all hero's in my eyes.

'the central spine of [industrial] units also appears to follow the Water of Leith, suggesting some of the land was in earlier industrial uses such as distilleries, mills and tanneries'
