Jock's Lodge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jock's Lodge is a suburb of Edinburgh, Scotland. It is bordered by Meadowbank to the west, and Piershill to the east. The origin of the name is uncertain, but it occurs as early as 1650.
The area is dominated by civil service buildings which were built as hotels for the 1970 British Commonwealth Games, Meadowbank Stadium, and a crossroads. The East Coast Main Line railway also passes by here. Many of the houses in this area are Victorian tenements.
