EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic Edinburgh Post Office and Register House, a grand architectural landmark in the heart of Scotland's capital city. Dating back to the late 1800s, this impressive building is a testament to Edinburgh's rich history and its role as an important administrative and communication hub. The Register House, located on the right side of the image, was originally built as the headquarters of the Scottish Exchequer in 1630. Over the centuries, it has served various functions, including as the Scottish High Court of Justiciary and the Court of Session. In the late 1800s, it was combined with the newly constructed Post Office, creating a formidable and imposing structure. The Post Office, on the left side of the photograph, was designed by the renowned Scottish architect William Henry Playfair and completed in 1832. It was one of the first major buildings in Edinburgh to be constructed in the neoclassical style. The Post Office was a vital part of Edinburgh's daily life, serving as the city's main postal facility and a gathering place for locals and travelers alike. The photograph, taken in the 1880s, showcases the grandeur of the building's facade, with its intricate stonework, tall columns, and ornate detailing. The image also offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians that once populated the streets of Edinburgh. Today, the Edinburgh Post Office and Register House continue to stand proudly, serving as a reminder of the city's storied past and its enduring commitment to preserving its history. The building now houses the General Register Office for Scotland and the Court of Session, maintaining its role as a vital administrative center for the city and the nation.
