Historic Edinburgh wine merchant could be transformed into art gallery showroom

A former Edinburgh wine merchant and pub could soon become an art gallery showroom as new change of us proposal has been submitted to the council with the vision of altering the building.

The property, at 24 Portland Place, North Leith, was formerly The Caledonian Inn, named after Portland Street which used to be known as Caledonian Street. It was also known as just the Calley Bar by locals in the area.

The building was then named 'The Sports Bar' until it ceased trading years ago. Now, the original signage of 'Charles Campbell' can be seen across the front of the pub, established in 1840.
