Photographic surveys were undertaken of two boundary walls within the designed landscape associated with Mortonhall House at NT 25775 68137 and at NT 25885 68322. The first wall marked the northern boundary of the field containing the main part of the Mortonhall Army Camp (NT26NE 90). This wall was in very good condition, standing to its full height of 1.9m on the south facing side and 1.2m on the north-facing side where the soil levels were higher. The second wall, close to Mortonhall Arboretum, was in variable condition, standing to its full height of c.1.8m at the eastern end, but only c.0.5m at the western end.
