Légende

Edinburgh: Allan Ramsay's shop, 1864. A '...building which deserves our notice is the old wooden-fronted house at the head of Halkerstoun's Wynd, which was the first dwelling-shop of Allan Ramsay, the poet. The shop was marked by the sign of a Mercury. In Carruber's-close, which adjoins this, he built a playhouse, now a Methodist chapel. The house he occupied at a later time was in the lane, and is now called Ramsay Hall, where his statue has since been erected, on the north side of the Castle Hill'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.
