Scope and Content Nos 28-34 Raeburn Place, Stockbridge, Edinburgh Raeburn Place, a mix of tenements and villas, was built between 1814-25 on the northern boundary of a new Georgian housing development planned by the portrait painter, Sir Henry Raeburn, on his country estate in the village of Stockbridge. Raeburn Place, now Stockbridge's main shopping street, has an almost continuous row of Victorian single-storey shops built out over the front gardens lining the street, and almost totally obscuring the original Georgian double villas behind. The original Stockbridge shops were built in the 1820s at basement and ground-floor level along the entire length of a minor street, such as St Stephen Street, the most extensive example of what was once a common Edinburgh arrangement.
