Parish of the City of Edinburgh
"The Hart"
"This little square contains the buildings used as the Scottish Mint before the Union of the Kingdom in 1707. The houses have since been occupied as private dwellings and workshops. The date of the principal building over a doorway at the bottom of Todricks Wynd is 1574 previous to which period it appears from the confessions of Darnley's murderers already quoted that the Cunyie house was near the Palace. Edinburgh was a place of Mintage from the time of Robert Bruce."

Ordnance Survey - Midlothian county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Midlothian, which is in the east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
