Statement of Interest

Originally known as Brunswick Street, St Stephen Street and Place did not form part of the Reid and Sibbald plan for the 1st extension of the New Town (the Second New Town) though the planning of these additional streets was revised to respect the Second New Town and they are thus taken in with the Second New Town A Group. For Mews to rear, see separate listing (Circus Lane). 106 St Stephen Street was formally the hall for St Vincent (Episcopal) Church (see separate listing), and is currently The Theatre School of Dance and Drama.
