Castlehill

Castlehill is the uppermost part of the Royal Mile, running from the Castle Esplanade down to the Lawnmarket.

North Side

  • Tartan Weaving Mill

  • Ramsay Gardens

  • Outlook Tower

  • Assembly Hall

South Side

  • Cannonball House

  • Scotch Whisky Heritage Centre

  • Boswell’s Court

  • Tollbooth Kirk (The Hub)

At the bottom of Castlehill is a mini roundabout; from there Johnston Terrace heads southwest, along the southern side of Castle Rock, to Castle Terrace. The Upper Bow, literally the upper part of the West Bow, heads briefly southeast. At one time this was the main access to the west of the burgh of Edinburgh, from the West Bow in the Grassmarket, but Victoria Street has since replaced it.
