There's no better way to get a handle on Edinburgh's transformation in the late 18th century. Gladstone's Land shows how the old high-rises of the medieval city, where poor and rich lived in the same block, were gradually tarted up with drawing rooms. 7 Charlotte Square showcases the new suburbs that were the Georgian New Town - built, ultimately, with money from the Highland Clearances.

Gladstone's Lane on the Lawnmarket, near the Castle; 7 Charlotte Square at the west end of George Street.
