From the Scottish Dene meaning deep valley, Dean Village, first known as Water of Leith Village, was a community of millers first mentioned in 1128. At the beginning of the 18th century, eleven mills were maintained here and the baxters of the bakers' guild conducted a flourishing trade. Nowadays, the district is appreciated for its setting below the city. Follow the Water of Leith Walkway or join the Gallery of Modern Art via the Dean Path, cutting through the picturesque Dean Cemetery.

Un peu de calme ! Si proche du centre historique et pourtant c'est le dépaysement assuré, c'est surprenant. Attention en novembre la nuit tombe vite et les berges ne sont pas éclairées...mais rien de grave !
Very well served by buses, this area is very friendly. You feel in another city! Take the path along the river!
A village where it is good to walk. A fifteen minutes walk from the city centre, you will find yourself in a charming small countryside contrasting with buildings Princes Street.
