A previously unpublished photograph of a near-mythical lost Edinburgh mansion has appeared online.
Posted on Twitter this week by Edinburgh resident and historian Derrick Johnstone, the image shows the impressive Rockville manor, which once loomed large over the corner of Napier Road and Spylaw Road in the affluent Merchiston area of the city.
The rare colour capture was taken by Derrick’s late father, John Johnstone, in 1966, just prior to the extraordinary-looking building’s demolition.
