Join us as we explore the archives to look at life and leisure in Victorian Edinburgh. We’ll pay a special visit to The Meadows for the International Exhibition of Industry, Science & Art in 1886 – did you know some remnants of the exhibition remain? We’ll be tourists for the day, walk about the parks, hop on the railways and see what else was happening on the city streets, at this time of great Scots innovation.
