Go straight over onto Leith Walk ... a big wide street going uphill ... As you climb you will see a large church steeple (spire) on your right (the tallest roof). That church marks the entrance to Pilrig Street. We are halfway down on the left at the bus stop. From the North .... Follow signs for Leith .... You will be on Queensferry Road for quite a few minutes ... keep going Leith (now on Ferry Road) .... when you see Edinburgh Castle on your right then you are quite near. You will pass a small traffic light and then come to a bigger one .... turn right here on to Newhaven Road and that quickly becomes Pilrig Street. If you miss that turn no worries! Keep going to the end of Ferry (not far) and turn right. At the next light turn right up Bonnington Road until you come to a 4 way junction. Pilrig Street is on your left. From the West ....
