Scope and Content Carved panel from Liberton House, Liberton Drive, Liberton, Edinburgh Liberton House lies at the end of an avenue of elm trees on the south side of Liberton Drive. Built c.1600 for the merchant, William Little, it stands on the site of an earlier building, and incorporates features of the tower-house. This carved panel, on the south front of the north range of the house, contains a scroll bearing the arms of the Little family, and the initials 'W L' for William Little. In the 16th century, the estate of Liberton was gradually acquired by the Littles, a strong and influential Edinburgh family. William Little eventually owned the whole estate by 1587, and moved from the fortified Liberton Tower to Liberton House c.1600. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
