9 Bank Street, Edinburgh

[hdw]

Leith and Edinburgh were separate towns until 1920, and several street names are found in both places. Previous posts here suggest the Bank Street in question was the Edinburgh one, and there were other registry offices nearby, e.g. at George IV Bridge and Chambers Street, where non-church marriages were performed.

Yes the St. Giles district should have confirmed it was in the city.
