Our area of immediate interest is bounded by the railway line in the Southwest, Broughton and Bonnington Road in the Northwest, Pilrig Park in the North, the gardens at the back of Springfield and Balfour Street in the Northeast, and the gardens at the back of Leith Walk, including Shrub Place, in the Southeast. These boundaries are not fixed and are only intended to focus our efforts.
