| In East Princes Street Gardens near Waverley Bridge stands the landmark Gothic monument to Scottish author Walter Scott, instrumental in rebuilding pride in Scottish identity, completed in 1844, 12 years after his death. "Auld Reekie" was built with Binnie shale; the oil that leaks from its matrix contributes to its dirty appearance. |
