Scope and Content Doorway, the Old Tolbooth, Bell's Brae, Dean Village, Edinburgh At the foot of Bell's Brae, facing the old bridge, is the Old Tolbooth, a granary built in 1675 for the Incorporation of Baxters (bakers) of Edinburgh. In 1976 the building was converted into flats. This moulded doorway in the east stair-turret of the granary has a keyblock with the date '1675'. The village was a milling community as early as the 16th century, and there is much evidence of 17th- and 18th-century occupation by the Baxters of Edinburgh, who by the 17th century had 11 mills on this short stretch of river.
