Plans in the City of Edinburgh Dean of Guild show the tenement to be part of a larger redevelopment undertaken by the Duddingston estate in 1914 when plans had been approved to widen Willowbrae Road at the Duddingston Road Crossroads. An existing row of cottages, situated slightly in front of the forge were knocked down, and the forge, Mayfield house and this tenement were built to replace them. The drawings for all of the above, as well as a gatelodge/gardeners cottage diagonally opposite were submitted as a single application to the Dean of Guild in April 1914.
