| OUR LADY'S WELL (Covered) [Liberton Tower] | Our Lady's Well | Thomas Torrence John Wallace | 006 | This well is now covered over so that no[ ] but the site of it can be seen the stream from the w[ ] runs in a covered drain and runs into Braid Burn There is no tradition recorded among the County people as to whether this was a holy well or resorted to for superstitious purposes. But it is well ascertained to have been once a remarkable well & an object well known and though now covered in the place is still well known as is also the name. |

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.
