The Colinton Tunnel - preserving history and heritage

It’s started!   32 metres of brilliantly illustrated poetry.  Simply stunning!

There's also Colinton Primary's brilliant work - installed recently and looking great

This exciting major project is creating a stunning mural in a Victorian railway tunnel, in order to preserve local history and make people smile.

  It is turning a dark and slightly forbidding tunnel into a safe and welcoming home for Scotland's largest historical mural, celebrating the industrial, social, artistic and literary history of our community.
