Scope and Content Memorial to Robert Reid, Dean Cemetery, Belford Road, Dean, Edinburgh Dean Cemetery was laid out in 1845 by the architect David Cousin in the extensive grounds of the early 17th-century Dean House, which had been, for many generations, the seat of the Nisbet family, and was demolished earlier that same year. This memorial to the architect Robert Reid, who died in 1856, lies in the north part of the cemetery. The huge stone slab has a bronze medallion set into an arched recess. Robert Reid (1774-1856) was born in Edinburgh, the son of a mason. He was a government architect in Scotland, becoming Master of Works and Architect to the king in 1824. With William Sibbald, he designed Edinburgh's northern New Town in 1802. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
