Rediscovered Passageway Reveals Edinburgh’s Forgotten Street
A hidden corridor behind the National Library of Scotland offers a glimpse into Edinburgh’s past, specifically Libberton’s Wynd, which was demolished in the 1830s to build George IV Bridge. Discovered in the 1990s, The Void contains remnants of old furniture and storage space from bygone centuries. Although not completely preserved, it showcases the city’s historical architecture and provides insights into community life, taverns, and social classes of the time. Experts emphasize the importance of these findings in understanding Edinburgh’s rich heritage.
