Down in Leith today. I’ll be honest, this is a pub I’d have hurried past rather than considered going into.
Anderson’s Bar, a ground floor pub on Yardheads in Leith. The door is padlocked and the windows shuttered. Above the door, between first floor windows is a sculpted heraldic shield. There is text below the shield. LEITH IMPROVEMENT SCHEME. FIRST ARTIZANS DWELLINGS. ANDREW McCABE PROPRIETOR. JAMES SIMPSON ARCHITECT. JOHN THYNN BUILDER 1885. Close up of the sculpted heraldic shield above Anderson’s Bar, a ground floor pub on Yardheads in Leith. The text reads: LEITH IMPROVEMENT SCHEME. FIRST ARTIZANS DWELLINGS. ANDREW McCABE PROPRIETOR. JAMES SIMPSON ARCHITECT. JOHN THYNN BUILDER 1885.
