Edinburgh locals raise concerns as crumbling Leith landmark covered up

Leith residents have voiced concerns over the future of a historic local landmark following possible unauthorised alterations to a prominent part of its frontage.

Planners at the City of Edinburgh Council have launched an investigation into whether or not work on a historic frieze on the Category A listed former Corn Exchange building at 29 Constitution Street is considered a listed building breach.

Locals have noticed netting placed on the side of the building, and have expressed concerns over the conservation of the structure.
