Scope and Content Carlton Terrace, Stockbridge, Edinburgh Carlton Terrace leads from the east end of St Bernard's Crescent down to the Water of Leith. It was planned c.1814 as one of three parallel streets to be built in a new Georgian housing development on Sir Henry Raeburn's Stockbridge estate. Carlton Street is a short terrace of two-storeyed houses, with end blocks with an extra attic storey. The ground floor is rusticated, and a long, perfectly straight iron balcony runs the length of the drawing-room windows on the first-floor. The continuous balcony at No 57 Northumberland Street in Edinburgh's New Town was chosen in 1824 as the model for balconies on the Raeburn Estate, including those in Carlton Street and the parallel street, Danube Street.
