Site of the short-lived early passenger terminus - and much longer lived goods station - of St Leonards, south-east of Edinburgh City Centre. The site fanned out from a tunnel which ran (and still runs) through the foothills of Arthur's Seat to a point between Samson's Ribs on one side and the Bonnie Wells o' Wearie (R Burns) on the other. If this sounds rural then it certainly looks it, and well within the City boundary.
