Old Calton Cemetery was split in two by the construction of Waterloo Place in 1818, some graves were moved to New Calton Cemetery, whilst this small section was cut adrift on the other side of the road. Today, many of Edinburgh's citizens walk by, some fifteen feet below the level of the graveyard, completely oblivious of its existence.
