Scope and Content Nos 70-90 Hanover Street, Edinburgh Hanover Street, one of the streets running north to south in James Craig's New Town, was first feued in 1784, and after a slow start, building was finished in the street by 1790, mostly with main door and common stair tenements in droved ashlar. These original plain-fronted tenements have been altered by the addition of ground-floor shops, either built out over the basement area, or with no building-out, allowing customers to walk up into the ground-floor shop or down into the basement one. The majority of the original main door and common stair tenements in Hanover Street have survived, although in almost every case the ground floor has been converted into a shop. Some of the buildings now have an additional storey. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
