Scope and Content Early 20th-century view of the south half of Randolph Crescent, Edinburgh, from the west Randolph Crescent forms the grand sweeping entrance from the west to Ainslie Place and Moray Place, the housing development on the Earl of Moray's estate designed by James Gillespie Graham in 1822. The crescent, two short curving terraces of three-storeyed houses between four-storeyed end pavilions, forms a half-circle round a small enclosed garden. End pavilions, with giant Doric pilasters, flank the entrance to Great Stuart Street. Randolph Crescent leads into the Moray Estate, a self-contained and imaginative piece of town planning executed under stringent conditions laid down by the Earl of Moray himself, and forming an interconnecting sequence of crescent, oval and polygon.
