Plans for gigantic Edinburgh village to replace former brewery site at Fountainbridge

Edinburgh locals have been invited to have their say over a major new development in Fountainbridge.

Launching this week, the consultation will take on opinions over a huge residential village being built on the site of the former brewery next to the Union Canal.

Plans were initially put in motion for the development back in 2016, with the council agreeing on a regeneration project that would see over 430 new homes constructed, as well as an extension to Boroughmuir High School. With work underway on the school extension, the focus has turned to just over the road, where the currently derelict field will see an unrecognisable transformation.
