More about Craiglockhart Edinburgh Scotland

Craiglockhart is a suburb of Edinburgh, Scotland, lying between Colinton to the west and Morningside and Merchiston to the east.

The area was developed in the 1930s around the Easter and Wester Craiglockhart Hills. The name appears to be an anglicisation of the Scottish Gaelic, Creag Loch ?d or Art, meaning the "Rock of the High Loch", or "Arthur's Loch", which may refer to a former loch in the golf course.

The area was home to the Craiglockhart Hydropathic, a hospital which is now part of the campus of Napier University. During World War One, the hospital was used to house officers suffering from the symptoms of shell-shock, including poets Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon, who was sent there after protesting about the continuance of the war (and who probably did not have shell-shock). After this the building served as a convent and then a theological school before passing to the then Napier College.

Approximately at the boundary point between Craiglockhart and Merchiston, there runs the suburban railway line. There was once a station just off Colinton Road, and this may return, since the line is mooted for re-opening as part of Edinburgh's future transport strategy.

Craiglockhart today is chiefly residential, with a small proportion of commercial properties, and is in general considered to be a comfotable middle-class area, with a mixture of terraced and detatched villas, of a vartiety of ages.

Craiglockhart Tennis Centre plays host to large international tennis competitions, with a series of well kept indoor and outdoor courts, as well as the slowest elevator know to mankind in its main building. On the same ground is Craiglockhart Sport And Leisure Centre which is generally less well maintained, but does however have a small boating pond.

Happy Valley presents some of the only shops within the Craiglockhart area, consisting of an art gallery yet no video rental store, a feature the area is greatly lacking.

There is a Craiglockhart Primary School, although this is a little to the north of the area itself, and would be considered by residents to be within Polwarth.
