Save Allan Park Campaign
Beltane Fire Festival
Edinburgh West – candidates on video
Sandy Bell’s
St Columba’s Quiz night
The residents of Allan Park Crescent met earlier this week at nearby Craiglockhart Parish Church to discuss their objections to the planning application which has been made relating to a house in their street.
The potential buyer of one of the line of 1930s bungalows wants to demolish it and drive an access roadway through to the care home site behind. A number of people object to the planning application, and we have spoken to some of the supporters of the campaign.

The Fire Festival on Calton Hill took place last night to mark the real start to summer. We were sorry not to be able to go and have a look at the festivities. Were you there? Tweet us some photos if you were!

Through these Sandy Bell’s sessions, Scottish art will be spread widely.
