Scope and Content Coach-house at Beech Lodge, No 10 Church Hill, Morningside, Edinburgh Church Hill, the district at the top of the hill overlooking Morningside, is also the name of a street running east from the summit to Greenhill Gardens, which was developed in the mid-19th century with large villas for Edinburgh's wealthier citizens. At the rear of No 10 is a large coach-house built with its gable-end facing a side lane. The coach-house provided a storage area through an arched opening on the ground floor for the carriage, and a large floor above as accommodation for the coachman. Church Hill, an 'early' suburb of Edinburgh in the 1850s, provided a pleasant environment and summer resort on the sunny 'morning side' of town. It lay on the old road from Tollcross to Biggar, allowing easy access to the city by carriage or on foot. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
