Scope and Content Early 19th century view of Leith Town Hall, City of Edinburgh Leith Town Hall was built after the Leith Police Act of 1827 gave administrative powers to 'Magistrates and Masters', a semi-representative local body. The building housed a town council from 1849 until 1920 when the burgh was amalgamated with Edinburgh. This is how the town hall looked shortly after it was completed in 1829, and until the prison block was built at the rear in 1878. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
