Edinburgh Castle is a castle fortress which dominates the skyline of the city of Edinburgh, Scotland, from its position atop the volcanic Castle Rock. Human habitation of the site is dated back as far as the 9th century BC, although the nature of early settlement is unclear. There has been a royal castle here since at least the reign of David I in the 12th century, and the site continued to be a royal residence until the Union of the Crowns in 1603. As one of the most important fortresses in the Kingdom of Scotland, Edinburgh Castle has been involved in many historical conflicts, from the Wars of Scottish Independence in the 14th century, up to the Jacobite Rising of 1745, and has been besieged, both successfully and unsuccessfully, on several occasions. From the later 17th century, the castle became a military base, with a large garrison. Its importance as a historic monument was recognised from the 19th century, and various restoration programmes have been carried out since. Although formally owned by the Ministry of Defence, most of the castle is now in the care of Historic Scotland, and it is Scotland's most-visited tourist attraction. Although the garrison left in the 1920s, there is still a military presence at the castle, largely ceremonial and administrative, and including a number of regimental museums. It is also the backdrop to the annual Edinburgh Military Tattoo, and has become a recognisable symbol of Edinburgh and of Scotland.

Kelvin Way Bridge Of all the many crossings of the Kelvin, this bridge has the most chequered history. City Engineer A B McDonald's single-arch red sandstone bridge was completed in 1914, the same year in which sculptor Paul Raphael Montford won a competition to produce allegorical figures for the four corners of the parapet. The outbreak of war, however, not only led to delays in the production of the bronze sculptures, but also increased the cost of the works. Over the next seven years, the artist and the City Corporation — which had harboured doubts about the cost of ornamental statuary long before the bridge was built — bickered over the overall budget, the many delays and the release of fees. Ultimately, the figures — representing Peace and War (NE), Philosophy and Inspiration (NW), Navigation and Shipbuilding (SE) and Commerce and Industry (SW) — were unveiled in the summer of 1926 to much critical acclaim.
