Information About

The Mound




Some of Edinburgh's most notable buildings and institutions have their premises on The Mound, including the National Gallery Of Scotland , the Royal Scottish Academy , the spires of New College , the Assembly Hall of the Church Of Scotland , and the elegant domed Headquarters of the Bank Of Scotland .

Today The Mound is a busy, if fairly steep, thoroughfare taking traffic from Princes Street , over the Royal Mile and into the Old Town. Due to its raised elevation, the Mound commands expansive views over Princes Street and the New Town of Edinburgh and towards Calton Hill .
